Commentary

And when the creation of these two tribes was in these two aspects, which are in the utmost opposition, one of them being concealed from the other, with the prevention of each from dominating the other except rarely, this is a manifestation of His great power and astonishing wisdom, which is among the greatest blessings. He said, causing it to be said: "So which of the favors of your Lord would you deny?" That is, the royal blessings that arise from your Creator and Nurturer and Master. "Would you deny?" That is, the blessing of sight from the aspect of the back and other than it from your creation in this strange pattern, and the depositing of what He has deposited in you of powers, and making you the essence of His creations, and the prevention of one of your tribes from the other, and facilitating for you provisions and benefits, and guiding you to the sound and easy faith, and His power to bring you back as He has power to initiate you.
