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.
