In first Sunni commentaries, quoting Israelites has been more common than directly and indirectly referring to New and Old Testaments. Again, when disputing the people of the book, some references have been made and gradually Israelites have been replaced by quoting from the two Testaments in different cases of Shiite commentaries. Vazir-e Maghrebi is the only one commentator that has used the three ways of quoting in his commentary. In comparison to preceding commentators, he has decreased quoting Israelites to the least and, instead, increased direct quoting from the New Testament and Old Testament to argue against opponents and support his own position. The paper, reviewing the background and changing line of the three ways of quoting, has collected and analyzed his biblical statements.

Keywords: Shiite Commentaries, Vazir-e Maghrebi, Israelites, the Two Testaments, Al-Masabih fi Tafsir il-Quran
