أُولَٰئِكَ الَّذِينَ اشْتَرَوُا الْحَيَاةَ الدُّنْيَا بِالْآخِرَةِ

فَلَا يُخَفَّفُ عَنْهُمُ الْعَذَابُ وَلَا هُمْ يُنْصَرُونَ

"Those are the ones who bought the worldly life at the cost of the Hereafter. So, punishment shall not be lightened for them, nor shall they be helped." (2:86)

This verse explains why the Jews will have to undergo such a severe punishment. They have been disobeying Allah (سبحانه وتعالى) in order to satisfy their desires and to enjoy worldly pleasures; they have also sacrificed for these things their salvation in the other world. Their sin being so great, Allah (سبحانه وتعالى) will not reduce or mollify their punishment, nor will He allow anyone to intercede on their behalf. (Ma'ariful Qur'an)
