Commentary

And when the decree was made; as indicated by the context of the warning: "So certainly Our word has preceded concerning those who opposed Our messengers with humiliating defeat"; he added to it His saying: "And certainly Our word has preceded"; meaning: in eternity; "Our word"; meaning: concerning what we have of greatness; "for Our servants"; meaning: those who sincerely devoted themselves to Us in every movement and stillness; "the messengers"; those whom We have increased in the honor of sincerity in servitude with the honor of messengership.
