Commentary
And when the death of what has become like this - after the great strength and complete perception - is among the strange matters, and its existence in it and its repetition upon it at every moment has made it a familiar matter, and something apparent and revealed, and the arrogance of man against his Creator and his rebellion and his opposition to His command is a forgetting of this familiar matter like denial of it, He indicated that by His saying, the Exalted, emphasizing greatly: 'Then indeed you...' And when it was possible for him, there is nothing from himself except non-existence, He removed the connector and said: 'After that,' meaning the great matter of the description of life and the extension in lifespan in varying terms: 'Surely you will die.' And He indicated by this description that death is a fixed matter for man who is alive in the state of his life, necessary for him, rather there is nothing possible from himself except non-existence.
