Simplified Tafsir
واذكر -أيها الرسول- إذ رفعنا الجبل فوق بني إسرائيل كأنه سحابة تظلهم، وأيقنوا أنه واقع بهم إن لم يقبلوا أحكام التوراة، وقلنا لهم: خذوا ما آتيناكم بقوة، أي اعملوا بما أعطيناكم باجتهاد منكم، واذكروا ما في كتابنا من العهود والمواثيق التي أخذناها عليكم بالعمل بما فيه؛ كي تتقوا ربكم فتنجوا من عقابه.
