﴿فَأْتُوهُنَّ مِنْ حَيْثُ أَمَرَكُمُ اللَّهُ﴾
Approach them from where Allah has commanded you. (al-Baqarah 2:222)

﴿إِنَّ اللَّهَ يُحِبُّ التَّوَّابِينَ وَيُحِبُّ الْمُتَطَهِّرِينَ﴾
Indeed Allah loves those who repent and those who purify themselves. (2:222)

The following verse contains ﴿نِسَاؤُكُمْ حَرْثٌ لَكُمْ﴾, introducing another connected expression. The statements about repentance and purification form a meaningful religious and ethical interlude.
