The owners of the book demand from you that you should bring down a book on them, from the sky. They had demanded of Musa (something) greater than that, they said, “Show us Allah openly.” Therefore due to their injustice, the thunder-bolt took (hold of) them. Then they took the calf (for worship), after clear signs had come to them, but We pardoned (even) that and We gave Musa clear authority.
