A verse can bring hope. Share this message of faith with someone you care about.
Verse 18 is found in chapter 5 of Numbers. The test for jealousy regulates a marital situation in which there is suspicion of unfaithfulness without sufficient evidence. The procedure places the matter under God’s judgment rather than allowing an uncontrolled private accusation. The passage belongs to the legislation of camp holiness and shows how Israel was to handle sensitive conflicts through established ritual procedures.
Meditate on this verse and share your reflection or spiritual experience with the community. Your comments will enrich everyone's learning.
