15. 70 times 7 (KJV and Malayalam O.V)
I prefer these 2 translations. This means forgive infinite times. 7^70 = 7 to the power of 70. ie. 7 X 7 X 7 X 7 X 7 X ...... 70 times like this which is
= 1.435036016 X 10^59. This is a huge number. Forget about forgiving, this number is probably unable even to count. This is a 60 digit number. 1435036016 0000000000 0000000000 0000000000 0000000000 0000000000. You can call this number in American System, 143 Octodecillion+, or, in a British System it is below a decillion(10^60). So it is humanly impossible to keep a tab of this huge number of forgiveness in a human lifespan. So can we mean this principle as, forgive always?

Jesus saith unto him, I say not unto thee, Until seven times: but, Until seventy times seven.(KJV and BSI Malayalam O.V.). BSI Malayalam O.V. = Bible Society of India Malayalam Original Version.

Jesus answered, "I tell you, not seven times, but seventy-seven times.(NIV)
This means 77 times, (a cardinal number 70 plus 7, Roman symbol is LXXVII.

Some people think it is 7 X 70 = 490.
Some others even think it is 70^7 which is = 8.23543 X 10^12.
