Matthew Poole and continuators on Isaiah 44:11

11. Behold, all his fellows shall be ashamed: and the work-men, they are of men : let them all be gathered together, let them stand up; yet they shall fear, and they shall be ashamed together .

Either 1. the Work-men, as it follows, who in this Work are Companions or Partners with him, by whose cost and command the Work is done. Or 2. those who any way assist or encourage him in this Work, and joyn with him in worshipping the Image which he maketh.

They are of Mankind, and therefore cannot possibly make a god. Or, They are of the meanest sort of Men; for so the Hebrew Word, Adam, sometimes signifies.

Though all combine together, and stand up with all their Might to maintain the Cause of their false gods, they shall be filled with Fear and Confusion, when God shall plead his Cause against them.
