Abstract: (3636 Views) |
| In the verse 31 of al-Baqara, the event of teaching the Names to Adam has been mentioned; commentators have presented different opinions under the verse during centuries which require an analysis. This study, with the historical study of interpretative perspectives from the first century until the fifteenth, seeks to identify and evaluate the thoughts of the commentators under the verse, and to show that the interpretation of the Sahabeh and Tabe`in have often been accompanied by a kind of simplicity and it has been common in commentaries during the second and third centuries. It was in the fourth century when Tabari used a critical and accurate method for interpreting the verse and opened a new way for commentators after him to find new dimensions of understanding the verse more or less. The culmination of this accuracy may be seen in the 14th and 15th centuries, with the views more precise and consistent with the meaning of the verses and more closely related to the interpretation of Ahl ul-Bayt (as). |
