Matthew 3:9
Just as he turned Lot’s wife to stone, so he can also make humans from stones, as he earlier made Adam from earth (Matthew 3:9) (Genesis 19:26) (Genesis 2:7).
Greek
Ὥσπερ γὰρ τὴν γυναῖκα τοῦ Λὼτ ἀπελίθωσεν, οὕτως δυνατὸν αὐτῷ καὶ ἐκ λίθων ἀνθρώπους ποιῆσαι, ὥσπερ καὶ τὸν Ἀδὰμ ἐκ γῆς πρό τερον.
