Hair braiding as outward adornment · dominant
In 1 Peter 3:3, the genitive singular feminine form occurs in the phrase concerning outward adornment; the APB renders the clause “let the outward adornment not be the braiding of hair and wearing of gold or wearing of clothing.”
In the Anselm Project Bible: In 1 Peter 3:3, the APB presents the term in the phrase “the braiding of hair.” This reflects the clause's presentation rather than a separate lexical definition.
