96 grand cherokee limited 5.2 - won't stay on

Hi,
I got up this morning to find that my battery was dead, and i gave the car a jump with my battery charger which had a jump start feature. i was able to get the car started and i let it run for a while to get some more charge in the battery then i moved it out to the front of the house. i shut it off and went to get something, came back, and when i started it this time, it wouldnt stay on. it will start then immediately shut off unless i hold down the gas.

what could this be?? thanks.

If your battery is more than 3 1/2 years old, I'd suspect the battery.

How many miles on your Jeep?
