Quran verse
Qur'an 59:11
Hast thou not observed those who are hypocrites, (how) they tell their brethren who disbelieve among the People of the Scripture: If ye are driven out, we surely will go out with you, and we will never obey anyone against you, and if ye are attacked we verily will help you. And Allah beareth witness that they verily are liars.

Tafsir as-Sa'di on Quran 59:11
Taysir al-Karim al-Rahman by Abd al-Rahman al-Sa'di (d. 1956), in the original Arabic.
ثم تعجب تعالى من حال المنافقين، الذين طمعوا إخوانهم من أهل الكتاب، في نصرتهم، وموالاتهم على المؤمنين، وأنهم يقولون لهم: { لَئِنْ أُخْرِجْتُمْ لَنَخْرُجَنَّ مَعَكُمْ وَلَا نُطِيعُ فِيكُمْ أَحَدًا أَبَدًا } أي: لا نطيع في عدم نصرتكم أحدا يعذلنا أو يخوفنا، { وَإِنْ قُوتِلْتُمْ لَنَنْصُرَنَّكُمْ وَاللَّهُ يَشْهَدُ إِنَّهُمْ لَكَاذِبُونَ } في هذا الوعد الذي غروا به إخوانهم.
