تِلۡکَ اُمَّۃٌ قَدۡ خَلَتۡ ۖ لَہَا مَا کَسَبَتۡ وَلَکُمۡ مَّا کَسَبۡتُمۡ ۖ وَلَا تُسۡـَٔلُوۡنَ عَمَّا کَانُوۡا یَعۡمَلُوۡنَ

2:142.
Commentary:
The People of the Book are here warned that the fact that they are the descendants of God’s Prophets would not avail them in any way. Their forefathers reaped the rewards of their good deeds and won God’s favours; and if they also wish to become His favourites, they must perform similar deeds and show implicit obedience to God and complete submission to His will. The fact that they are descended from holy persons makes them all the more responsible.
