Abstract

Parenthetic sentences are those which contribute to the main argument of a discourse. Due to their place in everyday conversations, they have been studied by tafsir experts, and as some verses have occasionally been regarded as parenthetic remarks, this view has influenced tafsir experts, too. One of the most famous practices is to regard the 16th - 19th  verses of the Sura al-Qiyamah as parenthetic verses. On the other hand, misunderstanding the Quranic text leaves its own effect on giving interpretations of the Quranic verses. The present paper casts a new look unto parenthetic sentences in a comparative mode, hence it is found out that they are not parenthetic verses. Semantically independent, those four verses are contextually related to another universe of discourse, hence their revelation.
