This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
Charge her by an oath, to answer truly to his question, or to declare by oath whether she be guilty or no, and after such oath shall say as follows.
If no man, to wit, except thy husband, as is manifest from the whole context; or no other man, the word another being understood here, as it is thought to be also Gen_14:1 36:6 Exo_22:20. With another, or, with him, i.e. the man now mentioned. So it is an ellipsis easily supplied out of the text.
