God’s hand has been shackled—may their own hands be shackled—and they were accursed for what they falsely attributed. Rather, the hands of divine power are always open and dominant: “The hand of God is above their hands.” Although the scholars of exegesis have mentioned various accounts for the occasion of the revelation of this verse, look to the intended meaning, for it says: it is not so. The Jews imagined that the true Sovereign created the Mosaic Manifestation and bestowed upon Him the robe of prophethood, and then His hands became fettered and bound, and He is not able to send a messenger after Him.
