Thus saith the LORD; (g) Cursed [be] the man that trusteth in man, and maketh flesh his arm, and whose heart departeth from the LORD.
(g) The Jews were given to worldly policies and thought to make themselves strong by the friendship of the Egyptians, (Isaiah 31:3) and strangers and in the mean time did not depend on God, and therefore he denounces God's plagues against them, showing that they prefer corruptible man to God, who is immortal, (Isaiah 2:22; Jeremiah 48:6-7).
