OP: GRACE - What It Is - exactly?

Grace, generally speaking is "Favor From God," On ALL the earth - ie: "He Makes
the sun rise on the Evil and the good; He rains on the just AND the Unjust" (Mat 5:45)

ULTIMATE GRACE = God GRACIOUSLY And Freely FORGIVES, Because Of
HIS SON's ALL-Sufficient Sacrifice, ALL the sins of the repentant, who
Rightly And JUSTLY Deserve ETERNAL Condemnation!

God's Simple Will!

I hear what you're "saying," but what did God [do] to show His Grace to those [before] Jesus lived? What is the act, or acts of God that demonstrates His Grace? Whatever that "act" is, it is related to the below:

2 Corinthians 12:9 NKJV - "And He said to me, "My grace is sufficient for you, for My strength is made perfect in weakness." Therefore most gladly I will rather boast in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me."

What are your thoughts?

But I say unto you ,Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you; That ye may be the children of your Father which is inheaven: for he maketh his sun to rise on the evil and on the good,and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust. ......Be ye theref oreperfect, even as your Father whichis in heaven is perfect.
Mt5:44-45.48
