Peter speaks for the disciples in wanting to know what exactly is expected of them in terms of the number of times they are to forgive the offences of others. Maybe he feels the number he offers is generous but, in fact, Jesus’ correction points to that fact that as God’s mercy cannot be limited or restricted. He illustrates this point through the parable.

I find myself denying forgiveness to others because I feel they are not deserving. I forget willingness to forgive is as much for me as for the one who has offended me.
