Commentary on Revelation 2:21
God's patience in giving 'space to repent' demonstrates His mercy while underscoring human responsibility. The Greek 'chronon' (time) indicates a definite period, not indefinite tolerance. This balance reflects Reformed theology's affirmation of both divine sovereignty in salvation and human moral accountability. Jezebel's refusal despite opportunity shows the hardness of impenitent hearts—a warning against presuming on God's patience. True repentance involves forsaking specific sins, not mere emotional regret.
