Tafheem-ul-Quran (En) - Al-Ghaafir : 37
اَسْبَابَ السَّمٰوٰتِ فَاَطَّلِعَ اِلٰۤى اِلٰهِ مُوْسٰى وَ اِنِّیْ لَاَظُنُّهٗ كَاذِبًا١ؕ وَ كَذٰلِكَ زُیِّنَ لِفِرْعَوْنَ سُوْٓءُ عَمَلِهٖ وَ صُدَّ عَنِ السَّبِیْلِ١ؕ وَ مَا كَیْدُ فِرْعَوْنَ اِلَّا فِیْ تَبَابٍ۠   ۧ
the paths of the heavens, and peep at the God of Moses, for I drink that Moses is a liar. " 55 -Thus the misdeeds of Pharaoh were trade seem fair to him and he was barred from the Right Way: all his scheming only led to (his own) ruin.
55 Pharaoh addresses these words to Hamim, his minister, interposing in the speech of the Believer in a way as though he has no regard for what he was saying. Therefore, he turns away from him arrogantly and says to Haman, "Build me a high tower so that I may climb it to see where the God of whom this Moses speaks, lives." (For explanation, see AI-Qasas: 38 and E.N.'s thereof).
