These verses of Surah Al-Anaam show the mental experience through which Abraham passed in the beginning and which led him to understanding of the Truth before prophethood was bestowed on him. Amidst the polytheistic environment and with no instruction in monotheism yet, he ultimately discovered the Truth by careful observation of the universe. His society was dominated by the worship of the heavenly bodies - the moon, the sun and the stars, but Abraham concentrated on these bodies and came up with the conclusion that they are subservient to the power of the One True Lord, their Creator. He disputed with his people and declared himself not to be among those who associate partners with Him.
