Genesis 35:1-15

Vs. 4 Jacob asks his family to give him their idols and earrings, which he buries under an oak tree.

Earrings/Jewelry is it wrong to wear it?

Exodus 32:1-4 - the golden calf was built from the gold jewelry the Israelites received from the Egyptians. The Israelites used the jewelry in a wrong way.

Judges 8:22-28 - Gideon claimed jewelry from the enemy

Hosea 2:13 - Israel used jewelry in the wrong way

Proverbs 25:11-12 Jewelry is like fruit of silver and gold

I Peter 3:1-6 - Don’t use the outward adorning of jewelry and clothing to win your husband and others to Christ. Jesus Christ’s beauty comes from the inside of us.

Ezekiel 16: 11-12 God gave jewelry and other blessings to the Israelites because He loves them. If the jewelry was wrong, God wouldn’t have given it as a blessing to them.

Is wearing jewelry wrong? Not if it is worn with the correct mental attitude. Our worship of God should not change because of our jewelry. Our Christian testimony should not be tainted because of our jewelry. Jewelry can be worn, and we need to thank God for His blessings on us with them.
