Pulpit Commentary
Pulpit CommentaryVerse 42. - If thou hadst known,' even thou, at least in this thy day. The emphatic repetition of the "thou" and the broken form of the sentence, tell of the intense feeling of the Divine Speaker. "In this thy day." There was still time, still one day left, before his terrible trial-time began, Which filled up the measure of Jerusalem and her people's iniquity. Still one day in which, had they only known "the things which belonged to their peace," they might have won a forgiveness for all the past centuries of sin.
Ellicott's Commentary
Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(42) If thou hadst known, even thou.--The emphatic repetition of the pronoun, as in Isaiah 48:15; Isaiah 51:12; Ezekiel 5:8; Ezekiel 6:3; Ps. ixxvi. 7, speaks of the strongest possible emotion. The broken form of the sentence, "If thou hadst known . . .," with no corresponding clause as to what would then have followed; the "at least in this thy day," the day that was still its own, in which it was called to repentance and action, all point to the words as being the utterance of the deepest human sorrow that the Son of Man had known.The things which belong unto thy peace.--Literally, the things that make for, or tend to, peace. The Greek is the same as that translated "conditions of peace" in Luke 14:32 (where see Note); in this case, obviously, the "things that make for peace" are repentance, reformation, righteousness. . . .
