Opposites cannot occur in the Word as you claim the issue of jewelry involves opposites. The eating of certain meats involves reasons far different than anything to do with jewelry. The eating of meats regarded foreshadowing and symbolic elements as well as health issues. Nothing ever forbidden in one covenant is allowed for and used as illustrations of holy things and acts in another covenant. Face it, it is wrong to think jewelry is forbidden in the bible. You are missing the context of references in the New Testament. We cannot grasp for straws to hold onto a tradition that is simply mistaken.
