J.D. Vance, the junior U.S. senator from Ohio, zeroed in on this in a social media post on Wednesday: “We've spent so much time winning a legal argument on abortion that we've fallen behind on the moral argument,” he wrote.

Vance is right.

I'm pretty sure there's a case in the Bible where abortion is basically recommended when the wife cheats on you? I remember something about a noxious potion being taken to kill the illegitimate offspring.

You're thinking of the Ordeal of the Bitter Water which is described as a way to judge if a pregnant woman has cheated on her husband. If accused by her husband, the woman would be forced to drink unclean water. If the baby died but the woman lived, it was deemed she was raped. If the baby and woman both die, then she purposefully cheated. If they both lived, the woman's husband was the father. It was thought that God would save the woman/child if they were innocent and murder them if they weren't.

God is alright with killing unborn babies and pregnant women if certain conditions are met. Here's a long list of bible verses where God deems children under a month old to be valueless, miscarriage as a form of punishment, and killing of pregnant women justifiable.

It is true, the bible has what is essentially an instruction for an abortion potion.
