* v.24 : In its wider meaning, the term kalimah (“word”) denotes any conceptual statement or proposition. Thus, a “good word” circumscribes any proposition (or idea) that is intrinsically true and – because it implies a call to what is good in the moral sense – is ultimately beneficent and enduring; and since a call to moral righteousness is the innermost purport of every one of God’s messages, the term “good word” applies to them as well. Similarly, the “corrupt word” mentioned in verse 26 applies to the opposite of what a divine message aims at: namely, to every idea that is intrinsically false or morally evil and, therefore, spiritually harmful.
