154. And for their covenant we raised over them (the towering height) of Mount (Sinai);
and (on another occasion) we said: "Enter the gate with humility"; and (once again) we
commanded them: "Transgress not in the matter of the sabbath." And we too k from them
a solemn covenant.

155. (They have incurred divine displeasure): In that they broke their covenant; that they
rejected the signs of God; that they slew the Messengers in defiance of right; that they

Nay, God hath set the seal on their hearts for their blasphemy, and little is it they
believe;-
