And indeed God is my Lord and your Lord. So worship Him read the introductory particle as anna with an implicit preceding udhkur ‘mention’; or read it as inna with an implicit preceding qul ‘say’ a reading indicated by the fact that God says elsewhere ‘I only said to them that which You commanded me “Worship God my Lord and your Lord” ’ Q. 5117. This that has been mentioned is a straight path a route leading to Paradise.
Ibn Abbas Commentary
When Jesus brought the Message to his people, he said: I am the servant of Allah and His messiah, (And lo! Allah is my Lord) my Creator and Provider (and your Lord) your Creator and Provider. (So serve Him) profess His divine Oneness. (That) the monotheism with which I am enjoining you (is the right path) an established religion with which Allah is pleased, i.e. Islam.
