Commentary: Gauḍīya-bhāṣya by Śrīla Bhaktisiddhānta Sarasvatī Ṭhākura:

By the will of the Lord, various laws are current in this material world. The fruitive workers discuss those laws of God. Worldly happiness and distress or reward and punishment of persons who are forced to enjoy the fruits of their karma are directed by the general laws of God. But the gravity of the offenses committed by persons who are envious of the Lord’s devotees is so great and beyond the general laws that the Supreme Lord personally judges them. In this regard one should discuss the topics concerning Mahārāja Ambarīṣa described in the Ninth Canto of the Śrīmad Bhāgavatam.
