Matthew Henry (1662-1714) writes this allegory on his commentary on Romans 7:7-14a. He is making a comparison on the Law of God between it being "holy and righteous and good" (Romans 7:12) yet at the same time revealing mankind's depravity due to sin. The exact phrase is
"The same sun that makes the garden of flowers more fragrant makes the dunghill more noisome; the same heat that softens wax hardens clay; and the same child was set for the fall and rising again of many in Israel. The way to prevent this mischief is to bow our souls to the commanding authority of the word and law of God, not striving against, but submitting to it."

Where do sand and clay come from?
Sand, silt, and clay result from the weathering of existing rock into smaller particles.
Is a topsoil rough?
it depends on the soil, silt tends to be the roughest. clay is more of a under soil (between bedrock and topsoil.) Sand would have to be the smoothest because it likes to level itself out as much as possible do to erosion. Like I said earlier clay likes to hide under another soil (most commonly under sand where I'm from!)
What rocks can Granite change into?
Granite, or any other rock for that matter, can become metamorphic, sedimentary, or igneous at any time. If the granite is weathered and eroded by wind, water, etc. and the lithified (cemented), it becomes a sedimentary rock. If it melts within the Earth under extreme temperatures and then cools to a solid state, it is an igneous rock. Likewise, if the granite is exposed to extreme temperature and pressure, it can change back into a metamorphic rock. Like I said, these same processes hold true for any rock or mineral in what is known as the Rock Cycle.
Which soil particle would hold the most water?
Clay soil is said to hold the most water. This is because the soil's particles are so small and there are numerous small soil spaces. Water moves slowly through. So there is great water retention.
Why is posidon called the earth shaker?
because when his trident hit the ground it was said to have caused earthquakes, also he was the god of earthquakes.
Is modeling clay the same as polymer clay?
No. Modeling clay contains oil that keeps it soft and never hardens. Polymer clay does not have an oil, it hardens when exposed to heat. polymer clays are often called "oven-bake clay"because you can make stuffs such as pendants, brooch, earings and other accesories using polymer clay by baking them in the oven. YES, i said oven. PLEASE be safe and never try to put them in the microwave.
Who said the same sun melts the wax and hardens the clay?
Origen of Alexandria in the 3rd century AD wrote: "...the sun, by one and the same power of its heat, melts wax indeed, but dries up and hardens mud not that its power operates one way upon mud, and in another way upon wax; but that the qualities of mud and wax are different, although according to nature they are one thing, both being from the earth" ( De Principiis , book 3, chapter 1 'On the Freedom of the Will', paragraph 11). Many other authors have used the same imagery, often without attribution.

What is The Clay God?
The Clay God is a god few believed in that is able to give coloured clay and regular clay only to those who are clay sorcerers. These few people can command clay to drop from the sky up to 10 times a day (Colour) or 20 for grey. This has been a great delight to children, so try playing it with your child! It is said that the chosen clay sorcerers can close their eyes, wish, and their clay would fall from the sky.
What melts as you cool it and hardens as you heat it?
Lots of things harden when heated: clay, for instance. But do they melt when cooled? Does clay? Something that melts when cooled, would be a substance whose particles would slip away off each other with lesser average kinetic energy. Something like a soup of magnetic dipoles, or something of the sort. There are no pure substances that melt as you cool them. However, that assumes no simultaneous change in pressure -- if you decrease the pressure a lot as you cool, then you can melt something while cooling. Similarly, no pure substance will harden when you heat it at constant pressure. But again, if you increase the pressure while you heat it, you can solidify something while heating it. But it's important to understand it's the pressure that doing the solidifying or melting in this case, and you are just working against the change in temperature which is effectively doing the opposite. That said, mixtures can often harden when heated. Clay is a good example. Paint, glue, epoxy will also harden when heated. But in all cases that is because you are either removing water (or another solvent) or you are causing a chemical reaction to happen which causes it to harden. In a similar way, there may be mixtures that melt when cooled (due to a chemical reaction for instance), but I don't know of any.
Is clay Underwood related to Carrie?
No. I met Clay in 2009 and actually asked him that question in Tootsies while he played there imitating Trace Adkins and he said "boy I wish" and then he said he was not related to her.
