Bad connection between the cable end and the battery post or a dead cell in the battery. When you jump a battery, the jumper cable is attached to the battery cable, not the battery itself. Clean the post, either top or side and the ends of the cables and try charging again. If it will not take a charge, it is a bad battery.

The most common reason, would be a dirty battery post, where you battery cable hooks to the battery. It could be either one or both. You need to take the cable off, and then clean the battery post, and the inside of the cable that goes over it. I don't know what kind of vehicle you have. If it's a GM with the side mount connections on the battery,it also could be a corroded cable, that you can't always see. They corrode under the insulating rubber. These usually require a new cable.

How do you disconnect a car battery?
There are two types of battery cable connections. The clamp type connects to a post on the battery and is held in place by a nut and bolt which squeeze the sides of the clamp tightly around the post. Disconnect by loosening the clamp's nut and then wiggling the clamp off of the post, start with the negative cable (black one). The bolt on type (sometimes referred to as 'side terminal' type) is bolted directly to the battery. To disconnect this type, simply unbolt it and remove the cable end from the battery. Again, start with the negative (black) cable. If the goal is not removal of the battery, but disconnection of power to the vehicle for servicing, disconnection of only the negative (black) cable is sufficient.
