Commentary
And when this is established from His knowledge, glorified and exalted is He, and His power, it results in the saying - and it is as has been previously mentioned that the intended meaning is the community for the attainment of [the matter] from them to every extent. The head is addressed so that it may have a greater impact in their hearts: ﴿So do not think that Allah﴾ (p-438) meaning the One who has all perfection. For indeed, whoever thinks that is of deficient intellect. ﴿He is the one who breaks His promise to His messengers﴾ in that He honors His allies and humiliates His enemies and destroys them due to their injustice, and He settles His allies in the land after them; then He explained that by saying - confirming that the multitude of opponents and their strength over the passage of time exposes the listener to denial: ﴿Indeed, Allah﴾ meaning the Possessor of glory and honor, “is Exalted” meaning He is capable and cannot be overpowered ﴿the Avenger﴾ against whoever opposes His command.
