 * Is this for a theme to be hosted in the WordPress.org directory?
    Plugins and
   themes hosted on WordPress.org are not supposed to add their own jQuery libraries.
   Additionally, any code that “phones home” requires opt-in consent.

 * Add the following code on function.php & that should help you.
 *     ```
       function themeslug_enqueue_script() {
           wp_enqueue_script( 'jquery-v-2', 'http://code.jquery.com/jquery-2.1.3.min.js', false ); //External Link
           wp_enqueue_script( 'mycustomJs', get_template_directory_uri() . '/default.js', false );
           // here you can enqueue more js / css files 
       }
   
       add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'themeslug_enqueue_script' );
       ```
