***Please describe teshuva {repentance} for me***

Repentance is the activity of reviewing one's actions and feeling contrition or regret for past wrongs, which is accompanied by commitment to and actual actions that show and prove a change for the better.

That is Wiki; a Christian would call 'past wrongs' sin and 'a change for the better' as giving one's heart to Jesus. How this 'Daniel' defines it is not revealed.

Strong's #8668: teshuw'ah - in the sense of #7768 'rescue' - deliverance, salvation. Related to #3467 yasha 'to open wide, rescue, bring salvation'. #3091 yehowshu'a - Jah saves, i.e. {Greek} Jesus.
