Important Words:
یفرط (commit excess) is derived from فرط which means, he preceded; went before; was or became first or foremost; had priority or precedence. فرط علیه means, he hastened to do him an evil action; he acted hastily and unjustly towards him; he did to him what was hateful or evil; he annoyed him. فرط علیه فی القول means, he exceeded the due bounds or just limits towards him in speech. The expression اننا نخاف ان یفرط علینا means, we fear that he may act hastily and unjustly towards us, or that he may hastily do to us an evil action or that he may hasten to punish us. أفرط علیه means, he acted insolently towards him. أفرط علی الرجل means, he burdened the man with what he could not bear (Lane & Aqrab).
Commentary:
Moses and Aaron are represented here as saying that Pharaoh might do them some harm or that he might exceed proper bounds in his talk about God i.e. might use derogatory language about God.
