Summary/Abstract: The article analyzes Havrijil Kosteljnik's most famous drama - Jeftaj's daughter (Jeftajova dzivka). Special attention is paid to the main heroine of Kosteljnikov's and Old Testament history as well. The article indicates the realized intention of the author in drawing many parallels between the sacrifice of Christ and the sacrifice of Jephthah's daughter. The theological sense of these parallels is underlined, as well as the reason why Kosteljnik decided on this Old Testament history to show the importance of sacrifice in Christian theology.
