This verse rejects the idea of those Israelites who said the properties of the Gentiles, pagans, and heathens, is not unlawful for the people of the Book! But the verse affirms that the criterion for personality and the measure of humanity is to observe covenant and to fulfil promises and to be virtuous and God fearing. Elsewhere in the Qurän is said: ``The most honoured of you in the sight of Allah is the most virtuous (CHASTE) of you.'' Therefore the verse here says:
``He who fulfills his covenant, and avoid evil, then Allah loves the God fearings.''
