70. لَقَدْ أَخَذْنَا مِيثَٰقَ بَنِىٓ إِسْرَٰٓءِيلَ
وَأَرْسَلْنَآ إِلَيْهِمْ رُسُلًا ۖ كُلَّمَا جَآءَهُمْ رَسُولٌۢ بِمَا لَا
تَهْوَىٰٓ أَنفُسُهُمْ فَرِيقًا كَذَّبُوا۟ وَفَرِيقًا يَقْتُلُونَ

70. We made it covenant of old with the Children of
Israel and We sent unto them Messengers. As often as a Messenger came unto
them with that which their souls desired not (they became rebellious); some
(of them) they denied and some they slew.

Commentary
In the previous verse, the
mankind was guided unto the path of goodness and improvement; and was informed
clearly that you cannot gain your end by caste, religious title or active
claims. These all affairs are useless. It is the decision of Islam that there
is only one path for that person, who wants to get rid of fear and grief.
Allah Almighty has given a clue
openly about that fundamental weakness, which carries anyone towards any sin,
and practices of the Children of Israel have been described as its example,
that the Messengers (peace be upon Them) of Allah Almighty came to them and
brought His Commandments. They (the Jews) were prevented from unreasonable
desires by means of these Commandments, but they had formed their habit to do
that, what they wished, though after that they suffer.
Experience of the mankind
declares the same that when evil days fall upon anyone, he/she begins to
fulfill personal desires like insane. So if you observe any person or nation
has been engaged in grazing like cattle, rending like ravenous and fulfilling
lust like animals, imagine then! Any vigorous and big misfortune is going to be
fallen upon their heads.
The Children of Israel did
never listen to the Messengers (peace be upon Them). Many of Them were evaded
and falsified, but those Messengers (peace be upon Them), who continued
carrying their Message to the Jews, They were slaughtered, for instance;
Prophets Zachariah and Yahiya (John) etc. (peace be upon
Them). They did all of these acts because the people had been entangled in
devilish desires. These are the cursed wishes, which prevent the human being
from doing good deeds.
