What is the jewelry bit on her velvet choker? Is it just artistic or does it represent something?
You are welcome!
Verse 3 about selling yourself for nought (nothing) means anything wordly you do for pleasure or gain that is not focused on God gets you nothing eternally. But verse 3 continues - we will be redeemed without money. We all have sinned & fallen short of the glory of God. Isaiah 59:14-21 tells us thst God looked to see who would intercede on our behalf (to protect us from his wrath because of our sin) and finding no man, God's own right arm (Jesus) worked our salvation for God by taking our sins upon himself (Jesus) and paying what we owed God - our very life. We were redeemed without money. To show that was an acceptable redemption, Jesus was resurrected to eternal life & all who believe & are baptized into God the Father, Son, & Holy Spirit, will also be raised to eternal life.
Who are the figures on her collar?

Why was it written in a different language than the original book of Matthew?
What if the 3 dates each represent something significant taken from the American people? The 6 could be Jan 6, 2021. The 28 could be Feb 28, 2020 when the first US C19 death occurred, effectively heading us towards lockdown. I haven't figured out a 29.
You are welcome!

Strengthen her & those who love her with your presence, comfort them with your promise of salvation through Christ Jesus, and fill them with your Spirit, love, & peace. I ask all this in Jesus' Mighty name, Amen.
Praise God!!! Such good news!!!

So what particles did they start with? Why those particles? How did it make gold & not sweet potatos (or any other combination of elements)? What did they expect the collision of atoms to leave as detritous?

"1Yet listen now, Jacob my servant, and Israel, whom I have chosen. 2This is what the LORD who made you, and formed you from the womb, who will help you says: "Do not be afraid, Jacob my servant; and you, Jeshurun, whom I have chosen.
3For I will pour water upon the thirsty, and streams on the dry ground. I will pour my Spirit on your offspring, and my blessing on your descendants:
4and they will spring up among the grass, as willows by the watercourses.
5One will say, 'I am the LORD's;' and another will be called by the name of Jacob; and another will write with his hand 'to the LORD,' and honor the name of Israel."
6This is what the LORD, the King of Israel, and his Redeemer, the LORD of hosts, says: "I am the first, and I am the last; and besides me there is no God.
7Who is like me? Who will call, and will declare it, and set it in order for me, since I established the ancient people? Let them declare the things that are coming, and that will happen.
8Do not fear, neither be afraid. Haven't I declared it to you long ago, and shown it? You are my witnesses. Is there a God besides me? Indeed, there is not. I do not know any other Rock." Isaiah 44:1-8 NHEB
Reagan and the Air Traffic Controllers comes to mind. If the current fed employees who are working from home, and their at home access is cut off, and they don't come in, are they then technically on strike, like the Air Traffic Controllers under Reagan, which were not allowed by law to strike so Reagan fired them? https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Professional_Air_Traffic_Controllers_Organization_(1968)
