Vows are a form of gratitude toward Yahweh, the Mighty One, that people perform (Psalm 65 1, Psalm 116 14,18). Some vows recorded in Scripture are the vow of Jacob (Genesis 28 20-22, the vow of Jephthah in Judges 11 30-40, Hannah’s vow (1 Samuel 1 9-11), King Saul’s vow (1 Samuel 14 24-30), and in the Messianic Scriptures, there is the example of Paul’s vow (Acts 18 18, Acts 21 17-24).
