A Study on the Interpretation of the Quranic Verses dealing with Judaism in Almizan

Allameh Tabatabaei is one of the most well-known Shiite interpreters during the contemporary period. Excellent features of his commentary method have turned Almizan to one of those most referred to. His method in interpreting all the Quranic verses is not the same. There are a lot of verses which are allotted to different aspects of Jewish religion. The interpretation of these verses demands special methods, tools, and knowledge in order to reveal the hidden concepts within them. Allameh Tabatabaei's method in interpreting these verses is not distinct from his general method; except in comparison of Quran and Torah discussions, the comparative commentary method could be observed, too. In this regard, he has also referred to some resources from different religions. The paper is a quantitative and qualitative analysis on Allameh's usage of interpretive methods and the used resources on interpretation of these kinds of verses.
