Isaiah 41:29

1819–1905
Anglican
SCRIPTURE

"Behold, all of them, their works are vanity [and] nought; their molten images are wind and confusion." — Isaiah 41:29 (ASV)

They are all ... their works ... —The first pronoun refers to the idols themselves, the second to the idolaters who make them. In “confusion” we have the familiar tohu.
