Талмуд к Бамидбар 5:20

Rebbi Jacob bar Abin stated before Rebbi Jonathan: “‘If you deviated from under your husband.’¹²⁷Num. 5:20. The baraita is not quoted elsewhere. The other sources point out that the raped wife is expressly excluded by v. 13: “And she was not kidnapped” (Sifry Num. 7). This excludes rape.” How do you understand this? He said to him: Just as she is “under your husband” by her consent, so also in this case by her consent.

MISHNAH: Then he starts writing the scroll. From where does he start writing? (Num. 5:19) “If no man has lain with you, …” (v. 20) “but if you deviated from under your husband,” etc. He does not write (v. 21) “the Cohen has to administer the oath of curse to the woman,” but he writes “may the Eternal make you a curse and a swear-word among your people when the Eternal will make your hips diminish and your belly inflate.” (v. 22) “This curse-water would come into your intestines to inflate belly and diminish hips.” He does not write (v. 22) “the woman shall say, Amen, Amen.”
Rebbi Yose says, he does not interrupt¹²⁷He requires that verses 19–22 be written in their entirety.. Rebbi Jehudah said¹²⁸He holds that verses 19–20 indicate a preparatory speech by the Cohen, that the valid curses, designated as such, are only in v. 21 and part of v. 22. he does not write anything but (Num. 5:21): “May the Eternal make you a curse and a swear-word among your people when the Eternal makes your hips diminish and your belly swell.” (v. 22) “This curse-water would come into your intestines …” He does not write (v. 22) “the woman shall say, Amen, Amen.”

“If you deviated from under your husband and became defiled,⁸²Num. 5:20.” that excludes⁸³One would have expected “includes” since her husband has a penis if he is permitted to her (Note 68). Babli 26a, Sifry Num. 13 read: “Other than your husband”, that includes a eunuch’s wife. a castrate’s wife. “And a man ejaculated into you⁸²Num. 5:20.”, that includes a castrate. “Except for a minor and a non-man,” e. g., an ape.
