Thematic Bible: As clay
Thematic Bible
Man » A social being » As clay
Yet, Lord, you are our father. We are the clay, and you are our potter; we are all the product of your labor.
Verse Concepts
Has the potter no right to make from the same lump of clay one vessel for special use and another for ordinary use?
Verse Concepts
One who argues with his creator is in grave danger, one who is like a mere shard among the other shards on the ground! The clay should not say to the potter, "What in the world are you doing? Your work lacks skill!"
Verse Concepts
"I, the Lord, say: 'O nation of Israel, can I not deal with you as this potter deals with the clay? In my hands, you, O nation of Israel, are just like the clay in this potter's hand.'
Verse Concepts
Your thinking is perverse! Should the potter be regarded as clay? Should the thing made say about its maker, "He didn't make me"? Or should the pottery say about the potter, "He doesn't understand"?
