What does 'it' denote

‘Forgiveness retroactively rewrites the terms of the original confession—a perfect example of “positing the presupposition.”’ 'The guilty interval between confession and response opens a chasm in which time starts again and the world is suddenly reinvented.’ 'It is’ 'unspecified what exactly is being acknowledged, conceded, or forgiven.’

Thanks. I falsely supposed that was like "It is unspecified N(wh clause)" construction. (modifier: unspecified, complement: wh clause)
