93. That these people had seen the destruction of the idols. or heard the evil words spoken about the idols. This tells us that even a cruel and tyrant king like Namrood would pass judgement in a case after listening to the testimony of the witnesses. Today's officials who give one sided judgement without listening to the testimony of both sides should take a lesson from this.

Please refer to Surah Anbiya ayat 57 which provides the complete commentary from verse 57 through 63.

59. This was exactly what Prophet Abraham (peace be upon him) expected to happen. He wished that the matter should not remain confined to the priests and the attendants but the common people also should be present there to witness that their deities were helpless and their priests were deluding them about their powers. The priests committed the same folly as was later committed by Pharaoh when he arranged an encounter between Prophet Moses (peace be upon him) and the magicians in the open in front of the multitudes of the common people, and the former got an opportunity to show publicly the miracle of the staff which shattered the illusory, magical tricks of the magicians.
