Book which has been revealed to you and in the Books revealed before you, and
yet desire to submit their disputes to the judgement of taghut (the Satanic
authorities who decide independently of the Law of Allah), whereas they had
been asked to reject it.1 And Satan seeks to make them drift far
away from the right way.

60. Have you not seen, O Messenger, the contradiction of the hypocrites among the Jews, who claim falsely that they have faith in what was revealed to you and in what was revealed to the messengers before you, but in resolving their disagreements want to refer back to what Allah has not legislated, and what people have invented, when they were instructed to reject such things. Satan wants to lead them far away from the truth, and they will not be guided through this.
الترجمة الإنجليزية للمختصر في تفسير القرآن الكريم
Are you not aware of those who claim that they believe in what has been bestowed from on high upon you, as well as in what was bestowed from on high before you? They seek the judgement of false gods, although they are bidden to deny them. But Satan wants to lead them far astray.
