ACTS 17:30 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
“And the times of this ignorance God winked at; but now commandeth all men every where to repent:”
In the past God overlooked such ignorance (agnosia), but now he commands all people everywhere to repent — The shift from overlooking (hupereidō, to disregard) to commanding (paraggellō, to order authoritatively) marks eschatological urgency. Divine patience with idolatry has yielded; now repentance is an imperative, not suggestion.
