against him, |
Numbers 5:12-15
_ _ if any man’s wife go aside, and commit a trespass against him — This law was given both as a strong discouragement to conjugal infidelity on the part of a wife, and a sufficient protection of her from the consequences of a hasty and groundless suspicion on the part of the husband. His suspicions, however, were sufficient in the absence of witnesses (Leviticus 20:10) to warrant the trial described; and the course of proceeding to be followed was for the jealous husband to bring his wife unto the priest with an offering of barley meal, because none were allowed to approach the sanctuary empty handed (Exodus 23:15). On other occasions, there were mingled with the offering, oil which signified joy, and frankincense which denoted acceptance (Psalms 141:2). But on the occasion referred to, both these ingredients were to be excluded, partly because it was a solemn appeal to God in distressing circumstances, and partly because it was a sin offering on the part of the wife, who came before God in the character of a real or suspected offender. |
Numbers 5:12
If a man's wife — This law was given partly to deter wives from adulterous practices, and partly to secure wives against the rage of their hard — hearted husbands, who otherwise might upon mere suspicions destroy them, or at least put them away. There was not like fear of inconveniences to the husband from the jealousy, of the wife, who had not that authority and power, and opportunity for the putting away or killing the husband, as the husband had over the wife. Go aside — From the way of religion and justice, and that either in truth, or in her husband's opinion. |
Numbers 5:12
Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, If any man's wife (e) go aside, and commit a trespass against him,
(e) By breaking the band of marriage, and playing the harlot. |
Numbers 5:19- 20 And the priest shall charge her by an oath, and say unto the woman, If no man have lain with thee, and if thou hast not gone aside to uncleanness [with another] instead of thy husband, be thou free from this bitter water that causeth the curse: ... But if thou hast gone aside [ to another] instead of thy husband, and if thou be defiled, and some man have lain with thee beside thine husband:
Proverbs 2:16- 17 To deliver thee from the strange woman, [ even] from the stranger [ which] flattereth with her words; ... Which forsaketh the guide of her youth, and forgetteth the covenant of her God.
