According to commentaries, this verse refers to a story mentioned in [[sura al-Baqara]] which gives the report of the creation of Adam (a) and prostration of angels to him. Two of the points mentioned by exegetes about this verse are that although [[Satan]] was one of the [[djinn]]s, but he achieved a position among angels due to his obedience and position before God, and another point is that it can be learned from the prostration of angels that prostration for other than God has no problem if it is for the sake of reverence. The story of prostration of angels and disobedience of Satan is mentioned in several places in the Qur'an including verse 73 of [[sura Sad]], verse 30 of [[sura al-Hijr]] and verse 34 of sura al-Baqara.
