 Vow - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The vow is a kind of oath, with the deity being both the witness and recipient of the promise.
A vow is an oath, but an oath is only a vow if the divine being is the recipient of the promise and is not merely a witness.
The characteristic mark of the vow, as Suidas in his lexicon and the Greek Church fathers remark, was that it was a promise either of things to be offered to God in the future and at once consecrated to Him in view of their being so offered, or of austerities to be undergone.

 CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Vows
Besides these, five vows are reserved to the Holy See: the vow of perpetual chastity, the vow to enter the religious state (that is in an institution with solemn vows), a vow of a pilgrimage to the tombs of the Apostles, to St. James of Compostela, or to the Holy Land.
The violation of the vow of chastity is always a sin against religion; it constitutes also a sacrilege in a person who has received Holy orders, or in a religious, because each of these persons has been consecrated to God by his vow: his vow forms part of the public worship of the Church.
The vow of pilgrimage to the Holy Land was temporary and solemn.

 VOW in the Bible Encyclopedia - ISBE (Bible History Online)
A vow was as binding as an oath (see OATH) and therefore to be kept to the letter; and it was not to be lightly made (Prov 20:25).
Nowhere in the Old Testament do we find the making of vows regarded as a religious duty (Dt 23:22), but the fulfilling of a vow was considered as a sacred and binding duty (Dt 23:21-23; Jdg 11:35; Eccl 5:4; compare Ps 22:25; 66:13; 76:11; 116:18).
If a husband did not veto a wife's vow, and then caused her to break it, the sin was his and not hers (Nu 30, passim).

 Virtual Office Websites ("VOW") Questions and Answers
VOW operators are free to advertise on their VOWs except on pages displaying other participants’ listings.
The fact that an MLS is unable – or chooses not – to monitor participants’ VOWs to ensure compliance with either the MLS’s general rules and regulations as they relate to VOWs or with VOW-specific rules and regulations is not a basis for an MLS to preclude participants from operating VOWs.
A VOW operator who withholds permission for other participants to display her listings on their VOW sites, on either a “blanket” or on a “selective” basis, may nonetheless display their listings on her VOW site.

 SUMMA THEOLOGICA: Is it lawful for a person to be bound by vow to enter religion?
The other is the simple vow which does not make a man a monk or a religious, but only binds him to enter religion, and such a vow need not be preceded by a year's probation.
On the contrary, It is written, (Psalm 75:12): "Vow ye, and pay to the Lord your God"; and a gloss of Augustine says that "some vows concern the individual, such as vows of chastity, virginity, and the like." Consequently Holy Scripture invites us to vow these things.
Therefore it is in itself praiseworthy to bind oneself by vow to enter religion.

 Vow and Covenant
If a person makes a vow for an act, if a patient recovers or a traveller returns home, and if it transpires later that the patient had already recovered or the traveller had already returned before he had made the vow, it will not be necessary for him to fulfil his vow.
If a father or a mother makes a vow that he/she will marry their daughter to a Sayyid, the option rests with the girl when she attains the age of puberty, and the vow made by the parents has no significance.
However, if his/her father or mother disallows him/her to fulfil the vow, his/her vow is void, provided that the fulfilment of the vow does not have any priority.

 Sorcery Vows
The High Vows vary with the particular sect of Malkionism, hence there is a High Hrestolim Vow, a High Rokarism Vow, etc. The user must adhere to his Sect's strictures (such as Caste definitions), to take this Vow, which permits him to add a certain score to his Presence.
This Vow does not mean that the sorcerer cannot let a human die by inaction, or that he cannot order someone else to kill him.
This vow is available only to the followers of RedEye and evil sorcerers.

 The Sacred Vow
One time-honored method for work on will consists of making and keeping vows, solemn and sacred vows that we inevitably carry through, come what may. At the outset, it behooves us to understand that vows bring us into direct relationship with God, deriving their sacredness thereby.
In making a vow, we partake in that immense Purpose by infusing an aspect of our own life with a definite purpose, that of keeping the vow.
Consider choosing a propitious moment for making the vow: New Year’s, our birthday, a holy day in our religion, winter or summer solstice, a new moon, a special event like a marriage, a birth, or a death.

 The Biblical Vow
Besides the vow of chastity, which commits priests to the celibate life-style, there is also the vow of poverty.
Marriage Vow - On the other hand, when they do reach the altar, an even higher level of promise is made as the starry eyed couple publicly proclaim their love, and repeat their solemn vows to remain faithful to each other until death.

 Vow
Brahmacharya is the vow of celibacy in thought, word and deed, by which one attains Self-realisation or reaches Brahman.
Some of us will have made strong vows in the name of God with much emotion and determination, believing that they were right, and perhaps they were for us at that time.

 Parashat Vayetze: Ya'akov's Vow - Torah.org
Ya'akov is vowing that when the rest of the world recognizes his special relationship with God (YHVH will be my God), he will give tithes, as did his grandfather when he was recognized as being blessed by God.
The final phrase of the vow seems a bit odd - after committing to have a special relationship with God, including (apparently) to worship Him at this spot, the climax of his statement -...and of all that You give me I will surely give one tenth to You seems incongruous.
Rashi even sees Ya'akov's delay in fulfilling his vow as the cause for the Dina tragedy (see Rashi 35:1).

 KTD--The Bodhisattva Vow--
It seems easier to keep physical vows such as not killing or stealing, because as long as you do not take the life of sentient beings or steal anything, you are able to keep such vows unbroken.

 Living a Life of Vow, by Zenkei Blanche Hartman
In Zen we sometimes say, "returning to Buddha," or "being one with Buddha," to emphasize that each of us is originally not separate from Buddha.
The next three vows in the ceremony are sometimes called the three pure precepts: avoiding evil, doing good and benefiting beings.
Our vow will sustain us and inspire us to practice for the rest of our life and maybe for lives to come.

 Numbers 6 - The Vow of a Nazirite
To separate himself to the Lord: The vow of the Nazirite was to express one’s special desire to draw close to God and to separate one’s self from the comforts and pleasures of this world.
The hair was to be allowed to grow all during the period of the vow, and then cut at the conclusion of the vow.
In the case of Samson, his strength came from his Nazirite’s vow of consecration and separation to God - so when Delilah cut his hair (the most public, visible example of the vow), his strength was lost.

 Knee of Daism Twelve: THAT VOW, THAT VOW!
Also, keep in mind that the person who initially takes the vow is, by definition, in a state of separation from "God" or "Guru" or the goal of his spiritual quest...
All vows are context based, and when the context changes, so must the vow (it seems).
This is not a "traditional" vow: "traditionally", the guru and disciple are supposed to get to know each other thoroughly.

 The Nazarite Vow
These are reminders that the Nazarite vow provided the opportunity to rise to the standard set by God's original purpose for all His peoples to be unto Him "a kingdom of priests and a holy nation' (Exodus 19:6).
It is clear from the book of Acts, that in the early period of the history of the testimony, it was generally true that "all that believed were together and had all things common," including steadfast continuance in the apostles doctrine and in the fellowship and in the breaking of bread and in the prayers.
The opening word of the Nazarite vow, "When", could be translated "If" (Keil and Delitzsch; JND), which confirms that the vow was voluntary and that it was for a limited period.
