The tafsir of Surah Ta-Ha verse 117 by Ibn Kathir is unavailable here.
Please refer to Surah Taha ayat 115 which provides the complete commentary from verse 115 through 122.
(20:117) Then We said: “Adam![95] He is an enemy to you and to your wife.[96] So let him not drive both of you out of Paradise[97] and plunge you into affliction,
95. Here the command, which was given to Prophet Adam, has not been mentioned, which was: You must not eat the fruit of this tree. This has been mentioned at other places but has been omitted here because the emphasis here is on this weakness of man that he is easily seduced by Satan in spite of the forewarnings and admonitions to this effect.
96. Both knew that Satan was their enemy, for Adam himself had witnessed the demonstration of his enmity, when he had refused to bow down before him and declared in plain words: I am better than him. You created me of fire and him of clay. (Surah Al-Aaraf, Ayat 12); (Surah Suad, Ayat 76), see also (Surah Al-Hijr, Ayat 33). Should I bow before the one whom You created out of clay. And then added: Just consider was he worthy of this that You have exalted him over me. (Surah Al-Isra, Ayat 61-62). Then Satan did not rest content with this bragging of superiority but evinced his jealousy by giving an open challenge that he would prove it by seducing Adam. (Surah Al-Aaraf, Ayat 16-17); (Surah Al-Hijr, Ayat 36-42); (Surah Al-Isra, Ayat 62-66); (Surah Suad, Ayat 82-83).
97. This was to forewarn both of them of the consequences of disobedience of the command.
