What is the connection between the following words - מטבע - טבע - לטבוע [בים] - טבעת. Coin-nature-drown-ring? Same root but what is the common theme? 

What is פשוטו של מקרא of לה' הארץ ומלואה תבל ויושבי בה כי הוא על ימים יסדה  - The earth and all that is in it belongs to Hashem etc. BECAUSE He established it upon water. How does that follow?? The earth is Hashem's b/c he established it on the water?? אתמהה!
