In this episode, we read Genesis 35:1-15 from the Good News Translation, Today's English Version. Jacob and his family turn from idolatry. This entails leaving behind jewelry that was engraved with the images of Canaanite gods. This does not mean that women may not wear jewelry. It also does not suggest that the outward beauty of women will "cause men to stumble." In addition to examining the original meaning of Genesis 35, we also investigate the meaning of other biblical "modesty" passages, in their original languages and contexts.
