In Surah Rahman
Verse 7 , Allah says
> وَالسَّمَاءَ رَفَعَهَا **وَوَضَعَ** الْمِيزَانَ
>
> And the heaven He raised and **imposed** the balance
But in the Verse 10 , Allah says
> وَالْأَرْضَ **وَضَعَهَا** لِلْأَنَامِ
>
> And the earth He **laid [out]** for the creatures.
Are the words in bold not the same? If yes, does the meaning of the word change with context in Arabic?
