The Pulpit Commentary on Isaiah 43:11

The Pulpit Commentary · Joseph S. Exell and contributors · Public domain

Beside me there is no saviour. None but God can save men. Man cannot make atonement for his fellows; "for it cost more to redeem their souls, so that he must let that alone for ever" (Psalms 49:8, Prayer-book Version).

The human "saviours" whom God raises up to deliver his people out of the hand of their enemies ( 3:9; 2 Kings 13:5; Nehemiah 9:27, etc.), are "saviours" in quite a secondary and inferior sense.
