Among the many stories in the book of Judges, this dissertation dealt the story of Jephthah. The book of Judges tells the story of Israelites who went astray from God’s command. It described many phenomenons such as the sinful nature of humanity, war, and death. Instead of delivering the result of triumphant victory over the war, Jephthah’s story especially talked about responsibility resulting from making choices and decisions in order to accomplish the will of God.
The work has re‐interpreted the message of God embedded in the book of Judges, and examined with a theological point of view, Carissimi’s oratorio “Jephthah” which depicts detailed situation of the character and through which it proclaims the message of sublimity to us living in this time around. A musical genre of ‘oratorio’ literally means ‘place for prayer.’ It is a Christian dramatic music which performed in a place of prayer and a place of proclamation of the Word. Opera was well developed in secular world. On the other hand, another type of dramatic music based on biblical stories existed in the church. Through this the church tried to communicate more exact and certain message of proclamation by adding dramatic elements to the sound.
Through this dissertation I arranged events related to tragic factors found throughout the book of Judges. The biblical incident closely related to Jephthah was examined through three view points; Jephthah’s view point, Jephthah’s daughter’s viewpoint, and interpreter’s viewpoint. My approach was to make reinterpretation of proclamation stated by this historic character and of other related consequences with various biblical and theological viewpoints. Taking the theological assessment that Samson’s life was never faithful all the time, Jephthah’s blamable attitude as a judge and his determination have been closely and theologically examined and by doing so I drew out a new word of proclamation for us to live a faithful life. In addition, people who had to face nothing but death who were related to numerous battles in those times were also examined through the eyes of Jephthah’s daughter.
I set the purpose of this dissertation in studying the God’s hidden message of proclamation which was reinterpreted through a composer’s work in a more objective and theological standpoint.
