In the New Testament, it is used to describe God's forbearance towards humanity, highlighting His patience and willingness to delay judgment to allow for repentance.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In the Greco-Roman world, the concept of forbearance was often associated with the virtues of patience and self-control. Philosophers like Seneca and Epictetus discussed the importance of enduring hardships and showing restraint. In the Jewish context, forbearance was seen as an attribute of God, who is slow to anger and abounding in steadfast love, as reflected in the Hebrew Scriptures.<div class="vheading2">HELPS Word-studies</div><p class="discovery"><b>Cognate: 463</b> <i>anoxḗ</i> (from <a href="/greek/430.htm">430</a> <i>/anéxomai</i>, "bear <i>up</i>") – properly, divine <i>forbearance</i> (patient endurance). <a href="/greek/463.htm">463</a> <i>/anoxḗ</i> ("divine <i>forbearance</i>") occurs twice in the NT, both times of God (Ro 2:4, 3:25) whose mercy holds <i>up</i> (holding unnecessary judgment <i>back</i>.</p><iframe width="100%" height="85" scrolling=no src="/discovery.htm" frameborder=0 cellpadding=0></iframe><div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>from <a href="/greek/430.htm">anechó</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>a delaying, forbearance<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>forbearance (1), tolerance (1).<p><div align="center"><span class="smalltext"><iframe width="100%" height="85" scrolling=no src="/nasec.htm" frameborder=0 cellpadding=0></iframe></span></div><div class="vheading2">Thayer's Greek Lexicon</div><span class="maintitle">STRONGS NT 463: ἀνοχή</span><br><br><span class="arttitle"><span class="grktitle">ἀνοχή</span></span>, <span class="greek2">ἀνοχῆς</span>, <span class="greek2">ἡ</span> (compare <span class="greek2">ἀνέχομαι</span> <span class="greek2">τίνος</span>, under the word <span class="greek2">ἀνέχω</span>, p. 45), <span class="accented">toleration, forbearance</span>; in this sense only in <a href="/interlinear/romans/2-4.htm">Romans 2:4</a>; <a href="/interlinear/romans/3-26.htm">Romans 3:26</a> (25).
