Romans 9:20 But indeed, O man, who are you to reply against God?
Will the ‘thing formed’ [G4110=plasma] say to Him
who formed [G4111=plasso] Why have you made me like this?
Paul here is not making reference to the creation of man in Genesis,
or the creation of the nation of Israel. This is the regeneration of the
spirit of man, as spoken by the prophet.
Zechariah 12:1 The burden of the word of the Lord against Israel.
Thus says the Lord, who stretches out the heavens, lays the
foundation of the earth, and forms [G4111=plasso, VXX]
the spirit of man within him.

Romans 9:
21 Does not the potter have power over the clay, from the same
lump to make one vessel for honor and another for dishonor?
22 What if God, wanting to show His wrath and to make His
power known, endured with much longsuffering the vessels
of wrath prepared for destruction,
23 and that He might make known the riches of His glory on
the vessels of mercy, which He had prepared beforehand for glory,
24 even us whom He called, not of the Jews only,
but also of the Gentiles?
Paul makes reference to the prophet, while conveying his words
upon all the nations of man.
Habakkuk 1:12 Art thou not from everlasting, O Lord my God,
mine Holy One? we shall not die. O Lord, thou hast ordained them
for judgment; and, O mighty God, thou hast established
them [plasso, VXX] for correction.
The prophet also speaks of the spiritual regeneration
to come with the restoration of Israel.
Jeremiah 33:
2 Thus says the Lord who made it, the Lord who
formed [plasso] to establish, the Lord is His name;
3 Call to Me, and I will answer you, and show you great and
mighty things, which you do not know...
6 Behold, I will bring health and healing; I will heal them
and reveal to them the abundance of peace and truth.
7 And I will cause the captives of Judah and the captives of
Israel to return, and will rebuild those places as at the first.
8 I will cleanse them from all their iniquity by which
they have sinned against Me, and I will pardon all their
iniquities by which they have sinned and by which they
have transgressed against Me.
The prophet confirms that this is the work of the Savior
Isaiah 53:11 BST The Lord also is pleased to take away
from the travail of his soul, to show him light, and
to form [plasso] with understanding; to justify the just one
who serves many well; and he shall bear their sins.
As the nation of Israel is the work of the Lord in the natural,
so the Messiah forms “the spirits of just men made perfect”,
which is His Bride.
Isaiah 44:
21 Remember these, O Jacob, and Israel, for you are My servant;
I have formed you [plasso], you are My servant; O Israel,
you will not be forgotten by Me!
22 I have blotted out, like a thick cloud, your transgressions, and
like a cloud, your sins. Return to Me, for I have redeemed you.
23 Sing, O heavens, for what the Lord has done! Shout, you lower
parts of the earth. Break forth into singing, you mountains; O forest,
and every tree in it! For the Lord has redeemed Jacob, and glorified
Himself in Israel.
24 Thus says the Lord, your Redeemer,
He who formed you [plasso] from the womb:
I am the Lord, who makes all, Who stretches out
the heavens all alone, Who spreads abroad the earth by Myself.
This is the metaphor of the potter and the clay as
a motif used frequently by the prophets.
