All Bro.

I understand what Bro. Hicks was doing, but the literal transliteration from the Greek manuscripts is "....wearing of apparel, ADORNING." Check out the NIV, NKJV, RSV, NASB [I think?], to see the most literal translations of the verse.

Where did you get that definition? Strong's says that "putting on" means: investment with clothing: - putting on. [endusis] and "apparel" means: Neuter of a presumed derivative of ἕννυμι hennumi (to put on); a dress (inner or outer): - apparel, cloke, clothes, garment, raiment, robe, vesture.

I'm not talking about the definitions of the words, though certainly applicable, but rather the actual Greek Manuscripts of the verse. This is why the more modern translations [taken from manuscripts far older than what the KJV had available to them] adopt the verse as I state above [see NKJV, RSV, NIV, NASB].

But, really, all of this is a departure from the original topic. Does God condemn personal ornamentation by His people in His Word? Yes [See Deut. 7:25, I Tim. 2:9, for ex.].
