Object without new operator

PreparedStatement preparedStatement = connection.prepareStatement(sql);

preparedStatement.setString(1, "Gary");
preparedStatement.setString(2, "Larson");
preparedStatement.setLong  (3, 123);

'preparedStatement' is an object. But how can we call it as an object if it doesn't use the new operator?

Sure it uses the new operator, it just uses new somewhere inside the implementation of prepareStatement. That's just calling another method that does the newing for you. That's actually a super common pattern called the factory pattern.
