Messenger (from Allah) with that which ye yourself desire not, ye grow
arrogant, and some ye disbelieve and some ye slay?

Commentary
God Almighty has bestowed two powers upon
the human beings:
·
Power of Belief (faith, religion, certainty and confidence).
·
Power of practice (procedure compliance, operation and action).
If these both powers are right and
straight forward then the path of object becomes easy. In the previous verses,
God Almighty has described about those wicked deeds and crimes of the Children
of Israel which belong to their power of practice. That is to say,
they used to slay one another themselves and exile the feeble people. Now,
weaknesses of the power of their belief and trust have been disclosed in this
verse.
God Almighty commands, “We bestowed a Book
to Moses (peace be upon Him) for their guidance, but when the Children
of Israel began to change the Commands of this Scripture and disobey
them, then We sent many Prophets after Moses (peace be upon Them). But these
people continued disobeying some of Them and even they slew some of Them (peace
be upon Them) also. Then We sent Jesus Christ (peace be upon Him) with the Holy
Scripture Gospel, and for proving His truth, We bestowed many Miracles upon
Him, and appointed the Angel, Gabriel (peace be upon Him) to support Him, but
the Jews did not refrain from their habits and prepared to slay Him (peace be
upon Him)”.
Now Allah Almighty says, “your
circumstances are also strange, whenever any Messenger (peace be upon Him)
brought the command of God Almighty against your personal desires and sensual
wishes, you turned away from it with proud, falsified some Prophets (peace be
upon Them) and slew some of Them.
Allah Almighty bestowed many miracles upon
Messenger Jesus Christ (peace be upon Him). For instance; He (peace be upon
Him) was bestowed to heal the blinds as having sight, cure the lepers
and make the patients healthy, God Almighty produced Him (peace be upon Him)
without father and bestowed power to speak in the cradle etc. But even then,
the Children of Israel did not believe in Him (peace be upon Him) and
continued opposing and committing troublesome acts.
