And Pharaoh said, "Let me وقال فرعون ذروني

to the end of it. It is the deception of Pharaoh, and that he is a schemer and deceiver who displays the opposite of reality, as indicated by his saying:
And Pharaoh said, "Let me kill Moses وقال فرعون ذروني أقتل موسى
[Ghafir 40:26]
.
And among the benefits of this noble verse is the intensity of Pharaoh’s anger at Moses, to the extent that he intended to kill him.
And among the benefits of this noble verse is the intensity of Pharaoh’s challenge, where he said:
and let him call upon his Lord دعوني أقتله وليدع ربه
meaning he challenged him: if he calls upon his Lord, will it benefit him or not?
And among the benefits of this noble verse is the fear of the disbelievers of the weapon of the believers, which is supplication, as indicated by his saying:

And among the benefits of this noble verse is the fanaticism of the disbelievers for their religion, as indicated by his saying:
Indeed, I fear that he will change your religion إني أخاف أن يبدل دينكم
[Ghafir 40:26]
.
And among the benefits of this noble verse is that the people of Pharaoh worship him, meaning they take their submission to him as worship, as indicated by his saying:

And among the benefits of this noble verse is that the disbelievers consider faith to be corruption in the land, as indicated by his saying:
or that he will cause corruption in the land." أو أن يظهر في الأرض الفساد
[Ghafir 40:26]
. And if they consider it so, they must surely prevent people from it so that the land does not become corrupt, in their claim.
And among the benefits of this noble verse is that the disbelievers claim what is a lie in order to keep people in their current state, which is their claim that if people worship Allah, corruption will appear in the land, in order to keep people worshipping Pharaoh. And Allah knows best.
