Almuntakhab Fi Tafsir Alquran Alkarim
Would I, he added, induce you to pay reverence and veneration to a deity other than Allah, the Creator, and adore him (or it) with appropriate acts and rites, when it was He Who confined to you such prerogative as to be the chosen for His mercy and blessings out of all people
Quran 7:140 Tafsir Ibn Kathir
Reminding the Children of Israel of Allah's Blessings for Them
Musa reminded the Children of Israel of Allah's blessings, such as saving them from Fir`awn, his tyranny and the humiliation and disgrace they suffered.
He reminded them of the glory and revenge against their enemy, when they watched them suffering in disgrace, destroyed by drowning and meeting utter demise.
We mentioned this subject in the Tafsir of Surat Al-Baqarah.

Tanwîr al-Miqbâs min Tafsîr Ibn ‘Abbâs
( He ) Moses ( said: Shall I seek for you a god other than Allah ) shall I command you to worship another lord ( when He hath favoured you above (all ) creatures) of your time, through surrender unto Him?
Muhammad Taqiud-Din alHilali
He said: "Shall I seek for you an Ilahan (a God) other than Allah, while He has given you superiority over the 'Alamin (mankind and jinns of your time)."
We try our best to translate, keeping in mind the Italian saying: "Traduttore, traditore", which means: "Translation is a betrayal of the original text".
