﴿ ۞ وَلَمَّا ضُرِبَ ٱبْنُ مَرْيَمَ مَثَلًا إِذَا قَوْمُكَ مِنْهُ يَصِدُّونَ ﴾

“NOW WHENEVER [the nature of] the son of Mary is set forth as an example, [O Muhammad,] lo! thy people raise an outcry on this score,”

And when the son of Mary is cited as an example — after God’s following words were revealed ‘Truly you and what you worship besides God shall be fuel for Hell’ Q. 2198 and the idolaters said ‘We are satisfied that our gods be together with Jesus in Hell for he too was worshipped besides God’ — behold! your people that is the idolaters laugh at it at this example — they clamour with joy at what they hear.
