Salaam all,

9:37
إِنَّمَا النَّسِيءُ زِيَادَةٌ فِي الْكُفْرِ يُضَلُّ بِهِ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُواْ يُحِلِّونَهُ عَامًا وَيُحَرِّمُونَهُ عَامًا لِّيُوَاطِؤُواْ عِدَّةَ مَا حَرَّمَ اللّهُ فَيُحِلُّواْ مَا حَرَّمَ اللّهُ زُيِّنَ لَهُمْ سُوءُ أَعْمَالِهِمْ وَاللّهُ لاَ يَهْدِي الْقَوْمَ الْكَافِرِينَ
Innama alnnaseeo ziyadatun fee alkufri yudallu bihi allatheena kafaroo yuhilloonahu AAaman wayuharrimoonahu AAaman liyuwatioo AAiddata ma harrama Allahu fayuhilloo ma harrama Allahu zuyyina lahum sooo aAAmalihim waAllahu la yahdee alqawma alkafireena
The Aya says:
The delayed/ extra month is none other than an increase in the rejection. Those who reject will get misguided by it. They allow it one year and they prohibit it another in order to side step what Allah had made forbidden, therefore they allow what Allah had forbidden. Their bad actions were adorned for them and Allah does not guide the rejecting people.
My personal note:
This Aya covers the idea of adding an extra month every so and so years to make the lunar year close to the solar year. The Aya forbade it to make the time of the months that are forbidden to violate near constant and predictable.

The Aya also brings about a very important concept that the Muslim should not play with loop holes to forbid what Allah permitted nor to allow what Allah prohibited.
