Numbers 5:17
<< Numbers 5:17 >>
and the priest shall take holy water in an earthenware vessel; and he shall take some of the dust that is on the floor of the tabernacle and put it into the water. (NASB ©1995)

Numbers 5:16 'Then the priest shall bring her near and have her stand before the LORD,

Numbers 5:18 The priest shall then have the woman stand before the LORD and let the hair of the woman's head go loose, and place the grain offering of memorial in her hands, which is the grain offering of jealousy, and in the hand of the priest is to be the water of bitterness that brings a curse. (NASB ©1995)


And the priest shall take holy water in an earthen vessel; and of the dust that is in the floor of the tabernacle the priest shall take, and put it into the water:

holy water. That is, water from the layer; called holy, because separated from common to sacred uses. This is the most ancient account of the trial by ordeal, which obtained so generally among various nations; and it was calculated to fortify the minds of the Israelitish women in the hour of temptation and to render them watchful against all occasions of exciting suspicion in the breasts of their husbands. Nu 19:2-9 Ex 30:18

of the dust Job 2:12 Jer 17:13 La 3:29 Joh 8:6,8
