Numbers 5
1. The unclean are removed out of camp
5. Restitution is to be made in trespass
11. The trial of jealously














Verse 22. - Into thy bowels. Cf. Psalm 109:18. Αあるふぁἰς τたうνにゅー κかっぱοおみくろんιいおたλらむだαあるふぁνにゅー σしぐまοおみくろんυうぷしろん, Septuagint. It has been thought that these symptoms belonged to some known disease, such as dropsy (Josephus, Ant.,' 3:11, 6), or ovarian dropsy. But it is clear that the whole matter was outside the range of the known and of the natural. An innocent woman may suffer from dropsy, or any form of it; but this was a wholly peculiar infliction by direct visitation of God. The principle which underlay the infliction was, however, clear: δでるたἰ ῶνにゅー γがんまρろー ἡ ἁμαρτίαあるふぁ δでるたιいおたτたうοおみくろんτたうωおめがνにゅー ἡ τιμωρίαあるふぁ - the organs of sin are the seat of the plague. Amen, amen. Doubled here, as in the Gospel of John. The woman was to accept (if she dared) the awful ordeal and appeal to God by this response; if she dared not, she pronounced herself guilty.
