Yochanan - 1.) This answer implicitly suggests the two "cases" are analogous - they are not. Jepthah was the son of a harlot, (זָנָה, Judges 11:1 Hebrew Interlinear). B.)

For example, it wasn't clear where the Hepner quote ended, and I had to look that up. I have edited it to clarify and used our formatting recommendations and I hope this will provide a helpful example of what we hope to see in answers going forward. You can look at the exact markdown I used here. Thanks for this answer! | |
