10:78

قَالُوٓا۟ أَجِئْتَنَا لِتَلْفِتَنَا عَمَّا وَجَدْنَا عَلَيْهِ ءَابَآءَنَا وَتَكُونَ لَكُمَا ٱلْكِبْرِيَآءُ فِى ٱلْأَرْضِ وَمَا نَحْنُ لَكُمَا بِمُؤْمِنِينَ

Why this meaning was chosen

All three family occurrences were reviewed on one bounded page; every occurrence is a frozen target, with no protected records or compacted candidates. At 10:78 form I is transitive: the speakers accuse Moses of turning them away from their inherited course. At 11:81 and 15:65 form VIII is reflexive in a night departure and prohibits anyone from turning back. Form I transitiveness, form VIII reflexivity, person, mood, negation, and directional complements compose locally. Abstract redirection and bodily looking back preserve one change-of-orientation core. No aligned reading payload or unresolved issue remains.
