One of the several effects of syntactic embedding is changing intransitive verbs to single-object transitive verbs, and changing single-object transitive verbs to two-object transitive verbs. This paper attempts to explore aspects of syntactic embedding and giving an overview of them, with special regard to transitive and intransitive verbs in three Quran tafsirs, namely al-Tibyan of Sheikh al-Tusi, al-Jami' li-Ahkam al-Quran of al-Qurtubi, and al-Mizan of Allama Tabatabaie. There are some benefits, for example, one of the benefits of using syntactic embedding is changing intransitive verbs to single-object transitive verbs and the single-object transitive verbs to two-object transitive verbs. Their syntactic-rhetorical effects are evident. Also experts of Arabic syntax are ahead of tafsir experts in giving syntactic argumentations. Among the tafsir authors, the above three tafsir experts render the same syntactic interpretation of embedding; however, Sheikh al-Tusi and al-Qurtubi never used the Arabic syntactic term "tazmin", instead they used other synonymous terms, for example, "in the sense of", "or", and "signifying"; however, Allama Tabatabaie used the very term "tzmin". <strong> </strong>   <span style="color: #000000;">© Khalifah Shushtari, M.I; Sadeqi, A.
