Do Not Reverence Human Beings (5:44)
Quran Talk Blog · Article · October 19, 2015
Honoring Previous Scripture
5:44 We have sent down the Torah,* containing guidance and light. Ruling in accordance with it were the Jewish prophets, as well as the rabbis and the priests, as dictated to them in GOD’s scripture, and as witnessed by them. Therefore, do not reverence human beings; you shall reverence Me instead. And do not trade away My revelations for a cheap price. Those who do not rule in accordance with GOD’s revelations are the disbelievers.
*5:44 The Torah is a collection of all the scriptures revealed through all the prophets of Israel prior to Jesus Christ, i.e., today’s Old Testament. Nowhere in the Quran do we find that the Torah was given to Moses.
