How does Numbers 5 address unclean persons and confession?
The Lord said to Moses, command the sons of Israel that they put out of the camp every leper and everyone having a discharge and everyone that is unclean through contact with the dead. You shall put up both male and female, putting them outside the camp that they may not defile their camp in the midst of which I dwell. And the sons of Israel did so and drove them outside the camp. As the Lord said to Moses, so did the sons of Israel. Confession and Restitution And the Lord said to Moses, Say to the sons of Israel, When a man or woman commits any of the sins that men commit by breaking faith with the Lord, and that person is guilty, he shall confess his sin which he has committed, and he shall make full restitution for his wrong, adding a fifth to it, and giving it to him to whom he did the wrong.
But if the man has no kinsman to whom restitution may be made for the wrong, The restitution for wrong shall go to the Lord for the priest, in addition to the ram of atonement, with which atonement is made for him. And every offering, all the holy things of the sons of Israel, which they bring to the priest, shall be his. And every man's holy things shall be his. Whatever any man gives to the priest shall be his. an unfaithful wife, or jealous husband. And the Lord said to Moses, Say to the sons of Israel, If any man's wife goes astray and acts unfaithfully against him, if a man lies with her carnally, and it is hidden from the eyes of her husband, and she is undetected though she has defiled herself,
What is the ritual for a jealous husband in Numbers 5?
And there is no witness against her, since she was not taken in the act. And if the spirit of jealousy comes upon him, and he is jealous of his wife who has defiled herself, or if the spirit of jealousy comes upon him, and he is jealous of his wife, though she has not defiled herself, then the man shall bring his wife to the priest, and bring the offering required of her, a tenth of an ephah of barley meal. He shall pour no oil upon it, and put no frankincense on it, for it is a serial offering of jealousy. a serial offering of remembrance bringing iniquity to remembrance and the priest shall bring her near and set her before the lord and the priest shall take holy water from an earthen vessel and shall take some of the dust that is on the floor of the tabernacle and put it into the water
and the priest shall set the woman before the lord and unbind the hair of the woman's head and place in her hands the serial offering of remembrance which is the serial offering of jealousy and in his hand the priest shall have the water of bitterness that brings the curse Then the priest shall make her take an oath, saying, If no man has lain with you, and if you have not turned aside to uncleanness while you are under your husband's authority, be free from this water of bitterness that brings the curse. But if you have gone astray, though you are under your husband's authority, and if you have defiled yourself, and some man other than your husband has lain with you, then let the priest make the woman take the oath of the curse, and say to the woman, The Lord make you an execration and an oath among your people.
