The text is not in error. lol. That is not the point. How many times must I say that God does not contradict Himself by using jewelry as a holy illustration if wearing jewelry is wrong? The context of Paul's and Peter's words must fit with that overall common sense thought.

We can compare the overall Bible. We don't see much stress on christians wearing jewelry in the NT.

You are arguing from silence now. To say the bible does not tell us what they wore is moot. You cannot use absence of description in order to support your doctrine.

We see lots of Jewish believers wearing it in the Old Testament. I don't see an error here and neither should you.

You argue from silence here. That, along with incorrect correlations with the issue and with priestly garments and ideas of humility not spelled out in the bible, and missing the overall point of common sense as I pointed out above, are indications that you are grasping for straws and simply adhering to a tradition regardless of its lack of valid support no matter what you have to say to make it stand.
