For I beheld I looked to see if I could find any of them that could certainly foretel future events; and there was no man Not any of the idols; for the word man is sometimes used by the Hebrews of brute creatures, and even of lifeless things. There was no counsellor Though these idols were often consulted, yet none of them were able to give any solid or certain advice concerning future things. Behold, they are all vanity This is the conclusion of the whole dispute, and the just sentence which God passes upon idols: they are vain things, and falsely called gods. Their molten images are wind Empty and unsatisfying things, and which, like the wind, do quickly pass away and come to nothing; and confusion Confused, useless things, like that rude heap in the beginning of God's creation, of which this word, תהו, is used, Genesis 1:2. He mentions molten images particularly, because their materials were most precious, and more cost and art were commonly bestowed upon them than upon others: but under these he comprehends all images whatsoever.
