What the Fathers say

Isaiah 31:3

Western Saints

Thomas Aquinas

Second, against trust in human help, he sets out their weakness: Egypt is man: whereas you are a man, and not God, in the hand of them that slay you (Ezek 28:9–10); and he adds the punishment: and the helper shall fall: they that dwell in houses of clay, who have an earthly foundation (Job 4:19).
