What the Fathers say
Eastern Fathers
John Chrysostom
Thus convicted by the words of the Judge, they make answer submissively, Lord, when saw we thee &c.
Western Saints
Thomas Aquinas
Then they also shall answer him. And note that just as the good abbreviate their good deeds, so the wicked abbreviate their faults; hence they say: Lord, when did we see thee hungry or thirsty? etc. They say everything together; in which it is given to understand that they are unwilling to examine their consciences, against Isaiah 46:8: return, you transgressors, to the heart. Hence, when they must return, they return to very little.
