Commentary

So when they found the necessity for following him and the barrier was removed, he rebuked them for what would bring them punishment [for their preference for the desire of the private parts, which led them to what became a disgrace for them among the creation]. He said, admonishing and reproaching them, clarifying the enormity of their action: "Do you approach" [meaning:] the committing of sin "the males". And perhaps they were engaging with males who are not of human beings, indulging in evil and openly displaying shamelessness, as indicated by his saying: "of the worlds" meaning: all of them, or the meaning could be: among the creatures, meaning: that you have specialized in approaching males; no one else among the creation has committed this act except you [among those who marry].
