Luke 17:3 Douay-Rheims

Take heed to yourselves. If thy brother sin against thee, reprove him: and if he do penance, forgive him.

Bede the Venerable

c. A.D. 672–735 Patristic

By using the number seven He assigns no bound to the giving of pardon, but commands us either to forgive all sins, or always to forgive the penitent. For by seven the whole of any thing or time is frequently represented.
