Commentary on Numbers 5:13

The scenario of hidden adultery—where a man lies with a woman secretly, unknown to her husband and without witnesses—presents a justice problem. Human courts cannot judge what is hidden. This verse establishes the premise for the bitter water ordeal that follows, demonstrating that God sees what is hidden and will reveal truth. The Reformed doctrine of God's omniscience is foundational here—nothing is hidden from His sight, and He will bring all things to light.
