1. Unlike the original text and interpretations we have seen, this song is written from the perspective of Yiftach’s daughter herself. How does hearing “her voice” change our experience of the story?
2. The artist struggles with the question, “Why would Yiftach’s daughter return to her father to be offered up?” How does the song answer this question? Do you agree or disagree?
3. Optional: listen to the rock version of this song. How does the artist’s decision to tell the story with these sounds affect her interpretation of the story?

Note: While the version of this song included with the curriculum is in a quieter, folk ballad style, there is also a rock version of the song recorded by Girls in Trouble. If you think it will interest the class, you can download or stream the rock version here and have them discuss question #3.
