Numbers 5:30 Meaning and Commentary

Numbers 5:30

Or when the spirit of jealousy cometh upon him, and he be
jealous over his wife (See Gill on Numbers 5:14);

and shall set the woman before the Lord;
has carried the matter so far as to bring his wife to the priest or civil magistrate, and declare his suspicion, and the ground of it:

and the priest shall execute upon her all this law;
he shall proceed according to the law, and perform every rite and ceremony required; nor could any stop be put to it, unless the woman owned she was defiled.

Numbers 5:30 In-Context

28 But if the woman has not defiled herself and is clean, she will be unaffected and able to conceive children.
29 This is the law of jealousy when a wife goes astray and defiles herself while under her husband’s authority,
30 or when a feeling of jealousy comes over a husband and he suspects his wife. He is to have the woman stand before the LORD, and the priest is to apply to her this entire law.
31 The husband will be free from guilt, but the woman shall bear her iniquity.”
