{ كُلُّ ذَلِكَ } المذكور الذي نهى الله عنه فيما تقدم من قوله: { وَلَا تَجْعَلْ مَعَ اللَّهِ إِلَهًا آخَرَ } والنهي عن عقوق الوالدين وما عطف على ذلك { كَانَ سَيِّئُهُ عِنْدَ رَبِّكَ مَكْرُوهًا } أي: كل ذلك يسوء العاملين ويضرهم والله تعالى يكرهه ويأباه.

وقوله "كل ذلك كان سيئه عند ربك مكروها" أما من قرأ" سيئة" أي فاحشة فمعناه عنده كل هذا الذي نهينا عنه من قوله: "ولا تقتلوا أولادكم خشية إملاق" إلى هنا فهو سيئة مؤاخذ عليها مكروها عند الله لا يحبه ولا يرضاه وأما من قرأ" سيئه" على الإضافة فمعناه عنده كل هذا الذي ذكرناه من قوله: "وقضى ربك أن لا تعبدوا إلا إياه" إلى هنا فسيئه أي فقبيحه مكروه وعند الله هكذا وجه ذلك ابن جرير رحمه الله.

Condemnation of strutting
Allah forbids His servants to strut and walk in a boastful manner:
وَلاَ تَمْشِ فِى الاٌّرْضِ مَرَحًا
(And walk not on the earth with conceit and arrogance.) meaning, walking in boastful manner and acting proud, like those who are arrogant oppressors.
إِنَّكَ لَن تَخْرِقَ الاٌّرْضَ
(Verily, you can neither rend nor penetrate the earth) means, you cannot penetrate the earth with your walking. This was the opinion of Ibn Jarir.

All of that which has been mentioned — the evil of it is hateful in the sight of your Lord.

After having described details of the injunctions appearing above, it was said in the last verse: كُلُّ ذَٰلِكَ كَانَ سَيِّئُهُ عِندَ رَبِّكَ مَكْرُوهًا (That which is evil, of all these, is detestable in the sight of your Lord - 38).
As for what has been forbidden in the said injunctions, their repugnance is obvious. But, within these there are some commandments where rights of parents and relatives have been enjoined or fulfillment of promises has been made mandatory. Here too, the purpose is to avoid doing the opposite of it, like hurting parents, breaking off from relatives and going back on solemn promises. Since all these things are haram or reprehensible, therefore, it has been called 'makruh' in a general sense of 'detestable' which includes the haram and makruh both. (Bayan al-Qur an)
Note
The injunctions described in the fifteen verses cited above are, in a way, the explanation of the effort acceptable in the sight of Allah mentioned in: وَسَعَىٰ لَهَا سَعْيَهَا (and makes effort for it as due - 19). There it was said that not every effort is acceptable with Allah. Instead, the effort made in accordance with the Sunnah and teaching of the Holy Prophet ﷺ is the only one acceptable with Him. Main divisions of such acceptable effort have been mentioned in these injunctions which take up the rights of Allah first and then the rights of the servants of Allah.
A gist of Torah in fifteen verses
