BRIEF INSIGHT

THE REFUSAL OF THE HUSBAND TO GIVE HIS WIFE THE SOTAH WATER TO DRINK
 
The Gemara says that if a Sotah refuses to drink the water, she is forbidden to the suspected Bo'el. The Rambam says that even if she is willing to drink the water but her husband refuses to give it to her, she is forbidden to the Bo'el. The reason is that the Kinuy and Stirah (the husband's warning and her subsequent seclusion with the alleged Bo'el) cause her to be forbidden to the Bo'el, and the only way to remove the prohibition is for her to drink the water. She cannot drink the water without the cooperation of her husband. Therefore, even though she is willing to drink the water, if her husband does not want to give it to her, she remains forbidden to the Bo'el. (Beis Shmuel)

QUICK HALACHAH

ZNUS WITH RELATIVES OF THE WIFE
 
If a man has intimate relations with any of his wife's relatives, his wife remains permitted to him. However, if the relative is frequently with him, we force him to divorce his wife. (Shulchan Aruch EH 15:27)
