I Can’t Forgive Myself

from Weekly Torah Commentaries · host Russ Resnik

When I teach or counsel about forgiveness, this is a question I hear more than any other: How do I forgive myself? I’ve searched the Scriptures for verses on forgiving yourself and can’t find any. You can repent (with God’s help) and you can receive God’s forgiveness, but you can’t forgive yourself. And realizing this fact can be liberating, an essential step in the right direction.
