Commentary (Tafsir Ibn Kathir)
The Lesson to be learned from what happened to Those Who Came beforeAllah tells us about the nations who rejected their Messengers in ancient times. He mentioned the severe punishment they suffered despite their great strength, He mentioned the traces which they left behind in the earth and the great wealth they amassed. None of that availed them anything and could not prevent the punishment of Allah at all.
