repentance
repentance A change of mind or behaviour; this may be attributed even to God in OT (1 Sam. 15: 11). It was demanded of the people whose repentance was often merely formalized in cultic actions and as such condemned by prophets as inadequate and empty (Amos 4: 6; Hosea 6: 4; Isa. 1: 10–17) and without the radical change demanded by the
Law. The hope lay in the possibility that one day God would give his people a new
heart (Ezek. 36: 26–31) and there would be
forgiveness to all who repented (Isa. 1: 18–19). In the NT repentance is called for by
John the Baptist the Baptist (Matt. 3: 9–10) and is to be validated by
baptism. The call is repeated by Jesus (Luke 5: 32) and sometimes Paul (e.g. Rom. 2: 4) and in Rev. (2: 5).
