plasso is used of Adam’s formation and of a molder making what is molded.

The attested use concerns bringing something into formed shape: Adam is described as having been formed in 1 Timothy 2:13, while Romans 9:20 frames the action as a molder’s making of what is molded.

1. Forming or making what is shaped · dominant

   In 1 Timothy 2:13, the aorist passive indicative form occurs in the statement that Adam was formed before Eve; the APB renders the verse, “For Adam was formed first, then Eve.” In Romans 9:20, the aorist active participle in the dative identifies the molder in the question of whether what is molded may challenge the one who made it; the APB renders, “Will what is molded say to its molder, 'Why have you made me like this?'”

In the Anselm Project Bible: The APB presents the action as “formed” in 1 Timothy 2:13 and uses “molder” and “made” in Romans 9:20. These renderings show the clauses’ presentation rather than a fixed English equivalent.
