Commentary (Tafsir Ibn Kathir)
The Qur'an is Allah's Proof Against His CreationIbn Jarir commented on the Ayah, "The Ayah means, this is a Book that We sent down, so that you do not say,إِنَّمَآ أُنزِلَ الْكِتَـبُ عَلَى طَآئِفَتَيْنِ مِن قَبْلِنَا("The Book was sent down only to two sects before us.") This way, you will have no excuse.
