Genesis 37:14

37:14 So Jacob ¹  said to him, “Go now and check on ²  the welfare ³  of your brothers and of the flocks, and bring me word.” So Jacob ⁴  sent him from the valley of Hebron.

Luke 19:42

19:42 saying, “If you had only known on this day, ⁵  even you, the things that make for peace! ⁶  But now they are hidden ⁷  from your eyes.

[37:14]  ¹ tn Heb “he”; the referent (Jacob) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[37:14]  ² tn Heb “see.”

[37:14]  ³ tn Heb “peace.”

[37:14]  ⁴ tn Heb “he”; the referent (Jacob) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[19:42]  ⁵ sn On this day. They had missed the time of Messiah’s coming; see v. 44.

[19:42]  ⁶ tn Grk “the things toward peace.” This expression seems to mean “the things that would ‘lead to,’ ‘bring about,’ or ‘make for’ peace.”

[19:42]  ⁷ sn But now they are hidden from your eyes. This becomes an oracle of doom in the classic OT sense; see Luke 13:31-35; 11:49-51; Jer 9:2; 13:7; 14:7. They are now blind and under judgment (Jer 15:5; Ps 122:6).
