Jesus didn't make this statement in a "story," but in a direct answer to Peter's question about forgiveness.
Matthew 18:21, 22 - Then Peter came to Him and said, "Lord, how often shall my brother sin against me, and I forgive him? Up to seven times?" Jesus said to him, "I do not say to you, up to seven times, but up to seventy times seven."[NKJV]
AnswerWe do not know who was the lady with the alabaster jar who anointed Jesus' feet in Luke chapter 7. However, a somewhat there is a similar account in John's Gospel, where this lady was Mary, sister of Martha and Lazarus. Others say it was Mary Magdalene.
This verse is found in the Gospel of Matthew, chapter 18, verse 21-22. It states, "Then Peter came to Jesus and asked, 'Lord, how many times shall I forgive my brother or sister who sins against me? Up to seven times?' Jesus answered, 'I tell you, not seven times, but seventy-seven times.'"
The verse "Let he who is without sin cast the first stone" comes from the Bible, in the Gospel of John, chapter 8, verses 7-11. It is a story where Jesus intervenes when a group of men wanted to stone a woman caught in adultery.
Jesus quoted Isaiah 56:7 and Jeremiah 7:11 while cleansing the temple. He referred to Isaiah when he said, "My house shall be called a house of prayer," and to Jeremiah when he said, "But you have made it a den of robbers."
From the story in Luke 2:1-7 we surmise that Jesus was born in a stable, or a barn if you like, as we are told that Mary wrapped Jesus in swaddling clothes and laid Him in a manger. A manger is a feed trough that is most commonly found in a structure that is used for animals. Some tradition says that the stable or barn was actually a cave that was used as a place to keep animals for a short period of time.
70
For example, lets say we have the fraction 70 over 10. The decimal form for that would be 7 tenths (.7) but the ratio could either be 70 percent, .7, and 7 to 3.
Jesus said that no-one greater had ever been born. (Luke 7:28)
70% is 70 over 100 (70/100). That's the same as seven over ten (7/10). We usually say seven-tenths.
Jesus said that we should forgive 70 times 7. He said this at Matt. 18:21,22. Jesus was teaching us to NOT keep count of the injury done to us by another person. Rather, We are to continue forgiving others freely. This would agree with other scriptures in the Bible that "Love" does not keep account of the injury. (1 Corinthians 13:5)
The story of Stephen begins in Acts 6:815 thru 7:1-60.
70 is the LCM of 5, 70, and 7.
In the number 70, the digit 7 is in the tens place. This means that the place value of 7 in 70 is 70. The digit 7 represents 7 tens, which is equivalent to 70.
About 60 or 70
7 tens, or 70.
lowest common denominator= 70 therefore; 5/7 + 7/10 = 50/70 + 49/ 70 = 99/70= 1 and 29/70 5/7 - 7/10 = 50/70 - 49/70 = 1/70
0.70 = 70/100 = 7/100.70 = 70/100 = 7/100.70 = 70/100 = 7/100.70 = 70/100 = 7/10
