وَلَقَدْ ءَاتَيْنَا مُوسَى ٱلْكِتَٰبَ مِنۢ بَعْدِ مَآ أَهْلَكْنَا ٱلْقُرُونَ ٱلْأُولَىٰ بَصَآئِرَ لِلنَّاسِ وَهُدًۭى وَرَحْمَةًۭ لَّعَلَّهُمْ يَتَذَكَّرُونَ

Dan sesungguhnya telah Kami berikan kepada Musa Al-Kitab (Taurat) sesudah Kami binasakan generasi-generasi yang terdahulu, untuk menjadi pelita bagi manusia dan petunjuk dan rahmat, agar mereka ingat.
Ibn Kathir
The Blessings which Allah bestowed upon Musa
Allah tells us about the blessings which He gave His servant and Messenger Musa, the speaker, may the best of peace and blessings from his Lord be upon him, He revealed the Tawrah to him after He destroyed Fir`awn and his chiefs.
مِن بَعْدِ مَآ أَهْلَكْنَا الْقُرُونَ الاٍّولَى
(after We had destroyed the generations of old) After the revelation of the Tawrah, no nation would again be punished with an overwhelming calamity; instead the believers were now commanded to fight the enemies of Allah among the idolators, as Allah says:
وَجَآءَ فِرْعَوْنُ وَمَن قَبْلَهُ وَالْمُؤْتَفِكَـتُ بِالْخَاطِئَةِ - فَعَصَوْاْ رَسُولَ رَبِّهِمْ فَأَخَذَهُمْ أَخْذَةً رَّابِيَةً
(And Fir`awn, and those before him, and the cities overthrown committed sin. And they disobeyed their Lord's Messenger, so He seized them with a strong punishment) (69:9-10).
بَصَآئِرَ لِلنَّاسِ وَهُدًى وَرَحْمَةً
(as an enlightenment for mankind, and a guidance and a mercy,) guidance from blindness and error. A guidance to the truth and a mercy means, to show the way towards doing righteous deeds.
لَعَلَّهُمْ يَتَذَكَّرُونَ
(that they might remember.) means, that the people might be reminded and guided by it.

ولقد آتينا موسى التوراة من بعد ما أهلكنا الأمم التي كانت من قبله -كقوم نوح وعاد وثمود وقوم لوط وأصحاب "مدين"- فيها بصائر لبني إسرائيل، يبصرون بها ما ينفعهم وما يضرهم، وفيها رحمة لمن عمل بها منهم؛ لعلهم يتذكرون نِعَم الله عليهم، فيشكروه عليها، ولا يكفروه.
