I don't think we can have it both was, we cant write off of ez 16 as allegory that doesn't support wearing jewelry and then take rev as an allegory in condemning jewelry.

Yes...another subject indeed. I DO NOT believe that the woman was the OT jewish nation. Israel did not "sit upon seven mountains," nor "rule the kings of the Earth" during the time of John's vision...but Rome did!
My point regarding
Rev. 17-18 was/is that the true bride was depicted as arrayed in pure white, while the false bride was depicted in ornaments. Either way you slice it, this does not put ornamentation in a favourable light. Ezek. 16 has been dealt w/ ad nauseum in this thread.
