Еврейская мысль к Йоэль 2:14

מִ֥י יוֹדֵ֖עַ יָשׁ֣וּב וְנִחָ֑ם וְהִשְׁאִ֤יר אַֽחֲרָיו֙ בְּרָכָ֔ה מִנְחָ֣ה וָנֶ֔סֶךְ לַיהוָ֖ה אֱלֹהֵיכֶֽם׃ (פ)

Кто знает, не повернется ли Он и не покается ли, и оставил ли благословение за Ним, Даже приношение пищи и приношение к напитку Господу, Богу вашему?

Duties of the Heart

1. Regret is a sign that the sin is disgraceful in his eyes, as written: "He who knows will return and regret and leave a blessing behind him" (Yoel 2:14). It is said of one who persists in his sins for a long time: "no man repented himself of his wickedness" (Yirmiyahu 8:6). We ourselves can see in relationships between human beings, that when one who wronged his fellow shows regret for having wronged him, this will be strongest the factor for his fellow's granting him forgiveness.
