oh, there are so many Biblical quotes to the contrary. "so shall your heavenly Father do to you, if you forgive not your brother from your heart".... "even as God has forgiven you, so do you forgive", etc. Lots and lots of them. So yes we should
strive to forgive others, as far as in us lies.
I am not finding however any admonitions about forgiving
oneself, and wonder how that has arisen in psychological thought.
