Commentary (Tafsir Ibn Kathir)

The Prophet Understands What He Conveys; Torment is in Allah's Hands Not the Prophet'sAllah says, just as We mentioned the clear signs that testify and direct to the path of guidance, all the while chastising useless arguments and defiance,كَذلِكَ نُفَصِّلُ الآيَـتِ(And thus do We explain the Ayat in detail,) that is, whatever responsible adults need explained to them, in the affairs of life and religion,وَلِتَسْتَبِينَ سَبِيلُ الْمُجْرِمِينَ(That the way of the criminals may become manifest.
