Haha, yeah.
If you're supposed to read the whole of the rest of the damn thing before you can correctly interpret the first part of it, it's horrible writing. I do wonder if anyone has actually read it as far as Surah 2 anyway.
Those dogmatically minded assume the book can't contradict itself, and must make sense. But what they actually do is just pick one side of the contradiction and claim that's what God meant all along; while fellow faithfuls choose the other side of it, and also claim they are right.
