Formed

like the noun (A, No. 1), refers, not to the external and transient, but to the inward and real; it is used in Gal 4:19, expressing the necessity of a change in character and conduct to correspond with inward spiritual condition, so that there may be moral conformity to Christ. Cp. metamorphoo, "to transform, transfigure," summorphizo and suschematizo, "to conform to."

"to mold, to shape," was used of the artist who wrought in clay or wax (Eng., "plastic," "plasticity"), and occurs in Rom 9:20, 1Ti 2:13.

denotes "anything molded or shaped into a form" (akin to A, No. 2), Rom 9:20, "the thing formed." Cp. the adjective plastos, "made up, fabricated, feigned," 2Pe 2:3.
