That chapter of Wisdom (fairly lousy translation
here) is giving a rabbinic exegesis on the events that happened just before and during the Exodus.
19:17. For while the elements are changed in themselves, as in an instrument the sound of the quality is changed, yet all keep their sound: which may clearly be perceived by the very sight.
19:18. For the things of the land were turned into things of the water: and the things that before swam in the water passed upon the land.
19:19. The fire had power in water above its own virtue, and the water forgot its quenching nature.
19:20. On the other side, the flames wasted not the flesh of corruptible animals walking therein, neither did they melt that good food, which was apt to melt as ice. For in all things thou didst magnify thy people, O Lord, and didst honour them, and didst not despise them, but didst assist them at all times, and in every place.
Basic idea seems to be that the intrinsic, underlying reality is that God takes care of His people, while what we observe (land things staying on the land, watery things staying in the water) is secondary. In a pinch, where God deems it necessary or beneficial, He will overturn the natural order of things to save His people. Indeed the chapter earlier refers to frogs and quail coming up from the sea onto the land in great masses - the "things of the water becoming things of the land"? - while alluding to the great drowning of the army of Egypt during their pursuit of Israel through the Red Sea, which might fit the "things of the land becoming things of the water".
It's cute, but trying to see in it a presaging of the theory of evolution would be exegetically irresponsible.
