Thematic Bible: As clay
Thematic Bible
Man » A social being » As clay
we are the clay, and You are our potter;
we all are the work of Your hands.
Or has the potter no right over the clay, to make from the same lump one piece of pottery for honor and another for dishonor?
Verse Concepts
one clay pot among many.
Does clay say to the one forming it,
‘What are you making?’
Or does your work say,
‘He has no hands’?
“House of Israel, can I not treat you as this potter treats his clay?”—this is the Lord’s declaration. “Just like clay in the potter’s hand, so are you in My hand, house of Israel.
Verse Concepts
as if the potter were the same as the clay.
How can what is made say about its maker,
“He didn’t make me”?
How can what is formed
say about the one who formed it,
“He doesn’t understand what he’s doing”?
