Herein He points out how extreme their wickedness, how determined their aversion. Again to draw them towards Him, He adds, “And be converted, and 1 should heal them;” which shews that if they would be converted, they should be healed. As if one should say, If he would ask me I would immediately forgive him, this would point out how he might be reconciled; so here when He says, “Lest they should be converted and I should heal them,” He shews that it was possible they should be converted, and having done penitence should be saved.
