3 - Explanation that

the non-appearance of the miracles

which they propose to the Messenger,

and the absence of Allah's agreement

with them in appointing a person

they desire his message,

and the absence of His sending - Exalted is His majesty -

the angels as messengers between the people,

and the absence of His revealing to every individual person,

all of that

is based on comprehensive interests

which their knowledge falls short of comprehending

and their minds are incapable of encompassing its ultimate goals.

And because most of the people

to whom the Messenger was sent

- may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him - were polytheists,

therefore these meanings

have been repeated in the Noble Quran

in diverse styles and in many surahs,

and with profound affirmations,

and the Great Quran has not hesitated

in its iteration and repetition,

for indeed it is fitting that the address

of the Absolute Wise to these ignorant ones,

and the weak in intellect likewise

with eloquent emphasis and abundant repetition.

[- The Quranic Argument with the Jews -]

Types of deviation of the Jews:

Indeed, the Jews used to believe in the Torah,

and their deviation was distorting the rulings of the Torah,

whether it was verbal distortion

or conceptual distortion,

and concealing the verses of the Torah,

and attaching to it what is not from it,

and falling short in implementing its rulings,

and intense fanaticism for their religion,

and denouncing the message of our master Muhammad - may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him -

and bad manners with the Messenger of Allah -
