1 Peter 3:3 NASB Your adornment must not be merely external --braiding the hair, and wearing gold jewelry, or putting on dresses;
Seems two of the 4 versions rdp cites totally agrees with us on those verses... interesting
Also, older manuscripts are not necessarily more accurate than the not as old ones, I read a great article on this a long time ago (I do not have it now), but age alone of a manuscript does not indicate corruption or lack of corruption

The NASB alone [that would be 1...not 2] agrees w/ your particular angle [to the violation of context]. Besides, I've repeatedly cited the Greek manuscript here....only to have it ignored [go figure].
The RSV & NKJV derive from the MT [Received Text], not the CT [Alexandrian Text], & they both translate the verse w/ "fine apparel". Try again!
Do you folks know what "not" means? Sheesh!
