εἰ ἔγνως : εἰ with the aorist indicative in a supposition contrary to fact, the apodosis being omitted by an impressive aposiopesis. ἐν τ. ἡμέρα τ., in this (late) day, not too late yet. καὶ σὺ, thou too, as well as my disciples: their insight will save them, but not you and the nation; you must know for yourselves. καὶ γε (T.R.): the combination καὶ σὺ καί γε (vide critical notes) is suspicious. Coming before ἐν τ. ἡμέρᾳ, etc., as in T.R., it will mean: even at this late hour. τὰ πρὸς εἰρήνην, the things tending to thy peace = thy salvation. νῦν δὲ, but now as things stand; the day of grace therefore is already past. ἐκρύβη : judicial blindness has set in, the penalty of a long course of moral perversity.
