As far as the [[New Testament]], according to the Greek Orthodox Diocese of America:

{{Cquote|The Greek term for [[repentance]], [[metanoia]], denotes a change of mind, a reorientation, a fundamental transforma­tion of outlook, of man's vision of the world and of himself, and a new way of [[Love|loving]] others and [[God]]. In the words of a second-century text, The Shepherd of Hermas, it implies "great understanding," [[discernment]]. It involves, that is, not mere regret of past [[evil]] but a recognition by man of a dar­kened vision of his own condition, in which [[sin]], by sepa­rating him from God, has reduced him to a divided, auto­nomous existence, depriving him of both his natural [[glory]] and [[freedom]]. "Repentance," says [[Saint Basil|Basil the Great]], "is [[Salvation|salvation]], but lack of [[understanding]] is the death of repentance."<ref>[https://www.goarch.org/-/repentance-and-confession-introduction Repentance and Confession - Introduction], Greek Orthodox Diocese of America</ref>}}

Repentance is a turning away, to cease. Example: Revelation 2:16 "Repent; or else I will come unto thee quickly, and will fight against them with the sword of my mouth."

Until the 1970s naturalists believed that [[lion]]s killed their prey by biting through the neck or by breaking the neck with a swat of a paw, while the Bible says that lions suffocated their prey. (Nahum 2:12) It was not until the 1970s that it was discovered that the [[Bible]] was correct.<ref>http://ed5015.tripod.com/BLions87.htm</ref> Lions fit their mouth over the mouth and nose of their prey and hold it while it suffocates, in addition to other killing methods.
