Commentary on Numbers 5:25
The priest taking the jealousy offering from the woman's hands and waving it before the Lord, then offering it upon the altar, incorporates the woman's accusation into the sacrificial system. The wave offering symbolized presentation to God for His acceptance or rejection. Offering it on the altar sanctifies the entire proceeding, demonstrating that this is not merely human judgment but a matter brought before God. Only after this offering could the woman drink the water, showing that divine judgment must be sought through proper sacred channels.
