This is one of those scriptures that makes no literal sense to me.
Where are the scriptures that cause the man who slept with her to have "thigh rot"?
To complicate matters more the man likely had three other wives....

It was, to use a modern cliche', a God thing.
It had to be.

So, if I am reading this right, there is just some dust and barley in there?

Or just some potion that had a particular chemical reaction.
How about divining in the form of water witching... It works - don't ask me how...

I know it works.
People used to come get me when I was a kid because I could find water.
I quit after I got older, because I am not sure what the origination of that power is.

Yeah, but don't drink it just yet, we need a witness.

I guess it had to be. The encyclopedia said that there is no place recorded where they tried this. If it was just some dirty water with a little barley that's a whole lot better than some stomach potion that nobody could stomach.

MY Nelson NKJV study Bible says that the dust of the floor of the tabernacle to a vessel of holy water and the scrapings from the bill of indictment were signs of a spiritual reality.Holy Water and Dust symbolized that God was the One who determined the innocence or guilt of the woman who had come before the priest.

"All these happened unto them for ensample..."
I suspect there was a type being laid out here.
Since God is represented by the masculine, the groom, the husband, and since God is never unfaithful, there was no point in a type of that nature in the law.

I think it's just a sensitivity to a gravitational pull.
