  A jilted husband better find better means to get the facts straight.

  interestingly there was no consequence for the husband for making her a spectacle if she was innocent or the stuff did not work. 5:31.

  no wonder, for Jehovah is a JEALOUS male too.

  Men of course, could cheat on their wife, as long as it was not with an engaged or married female. Prostitutes were fine, they didnt have an owner, so no property was defiled.

  Women could not raise doubts about an unfaithful male....

  Its all about money and property with these babble people.
