The ordeal of the bitter water was a trial by ordeal administered to the wife whose husband suspected her of adultery but who had no witnesses to make a formal case. The ordeal is expanded in the Talmud, in the seventh tractate of Nashim. According to Tikva Frymer-Kensky, the ritual is not actually an "ordeal" which provides a verdict on the woman's guilt for use by human judges, but rather takes the form of a "purgatory oath, in which the individual swearing the oath puts himself under divine jurisdiction, expecting to be punished by God if the oath-taker is guilty".

  • Als Keuschheitsprobe bezeichnet man Verfahren zur Prüfung oder des Beweises dafür, dass eine Person ihre Keuschheit, verstanden als Jungfräulichkeit, geschlechtliche Enthaltsamkeit oder eheliche Treue, bewahrt hat. (de)
  • La prova dell'acqua amara è un rito narrato nel libro dei Numeri, c. 5. Era un gesto simbolico davanti all'altare di Yahweh, parallelo ad altri riti nel Codice di Hammurabi. Se una donna era sospettata di tradimento veniva portata dal sacerdote e fatta stare al cospetto di Jahve. Poi il sacerdote dopo aver preso dell'acqua santa in un vaso di terracotta con l'aggiunta di polvere del suolo della Dimora, faceva giurare la donna e in fine le dava da bere l'acqua santa. Se la moglie era stata infedele a suo marito, l'acqua di maledizione sarebbe entrata in lei come acqua amara. cit.: '...le si gonfierà il ventre e il suo sesso avvizzirà e questa donna sarà oggetto di imprecazione in mezzo al suo popolo'. (it)
  • De proef met het bittere water of de wet der ijveringen (Num. 5:30) is een godsoordeel dat werd ondergaan door de vrouw wier man vermoedde dat zij zich schuldig had gemaakt aan overspel, maar die geen getuigen had. De proef wordt genoemd in het Bijbelboek Numeri en verder uitgelegd in de Talmoed, in het gelijknamige zevende traktaat van Nasjiem. (nl)
  • Águas da amargura pode significar: * A lei da Bíblia, citada em Números 5:11-31, que consiste em fazer uma mulher suspeita de adultério beber uma água amarga possivelmente contaminada, que trará a morte se ela for culpada, ou trará fertilidade se ela for inocente. Segundo Adam Clarke, comentarista da Bíblia, esta é a origem da ordália. * O livro , escrito por . (pt)
  • La prueba del agua amarga es una prueba de la fidelidad conyugal ante los sacerdotes sobre la cual habla el Libro de Números (V, 11-28). Era una ceremonia que tenía lugar entre los judíos y consistía en dar a la mujer cuyo marido dudaba de su fidelidad cierta porción de agua mezclada con polvo del tabernáculo y jugo de algunas hierbas amargas. Si era inocente concebía un hijo en el plazo de un año que paría sin sufrir apenas dolor. Si era adúltera, perdía el color, se le giraban los ojos en la cabeza y moría en el acto al igual que su cómplice. A esta agua se le llamaba también agua de celos.​ (es)

  • L’épreuve de l'eau amère est un rituel d’institution biblique pour mettre à l’épreuve une femme soupçonnée par son mari d’infidélité conjugale, sans qu’il n’y ait de preuves pour corroborer ses soupçons. En ce cas, il leur est interdit d’avoir des rapports conjugaux avant qu’il ne l’ait menée au temple avec une , où le prêtre officiant lui fait boire une eau qui prouvera sa culpabilité ou son innocence, selon qu’elle en éprouve ou non des souffrances. Dans le Protévangile de Jacques et d'autres apocryphes chrétiens, Marie et Joseph doivent eux aussi subir l'épreuve de l'eau amère. (fr)
