Commentary on Numbers 5:11

The Lord's direct address to Moses initiates a new section of law dealing with suspected adultery. This direct revelation emphasizes that sexual purity within marriage is not merely a social convention but a divine requirement. The law of jealousy that follows demonstrates God's concern for both justice and the protection of marriage. The Reformed understanding of marriage as a covenant before God is reinforced—marital unfaithfulness is not just a personal matter but a violation of God's created order.
