Commentary

And when his habit was not to confront anyone with what they dislike, he began to inform them of what indicates that. He said: ﴿They said﴾, assuming that he did not say that according to its apparent meaning: ﴿Have you come to us﴾ in this speech ﴿with the truth﴾ that corresponds to reality ﴿or are you among the jesters﴾? So the apparent meaning of your words is not true.
