Emphatic لَ (indeed)
وَلَقَدْ (And indeed) starts with لَ for emphasis — it's like saying "indeed!" or "certainly!".
We add "indeed" or "certainly" to show the emphasis.
Sahih International
And We did certainly give Moses the Scripture [i.e., the Torah] and followed up after him with messengers. And We gave Jesus, the son of Mary, clear proofs and supported him with the Pure Spirit [i.e., the angel Gabriel]. But is it [not] that every time a messenger came to you, [O Children of Israel], with what your souls did not desire, you were arrogant? And a party [of messengers] you denied and another party you killed.
