text: where can i find  biblebased answers to specific questions? topic: "70 times 7", where in the bible do i find this verse? seventy times seven come up in matthew 18:21-22 specifically.  but in context it is about forgiveness.  peter asks jesus how many times he should forgive his brother when he sins against him and peter reasons that seven times is enough.  jesus counters by saying "i tell you, not seven times, but seventy-seven times."  seventy-seven may also be "seventy times seven".    there may be other passages, but this is the only one i could find.    you can visit www.biblegateway.com or a good bible concordance (like strong's exhaustive concordance) for more info, and i also recommend checking out a commentary.  there are some on the bible gateway website, and there are others at your local library and bookstore.  one of my favorite commentaries is "thru the bible" by j. vernon mcgee.  awesome commentary.  hope this helps!
