The doctrine of redemption concerns the state of a person’s salvation, similar to justification, but it has a different emphasis. While justification refers to God declaring the sinner righteous for Christ’s sake, redemption refers to Jesus setting the sinner free from captivity or slavery.1,2 In non-religious usage, redemption simply refers to fre...
God Redeemed Israel
In the Old Testament, redemption is commonly ascribed to God delivering Israel from slavery in Egypt. The Bible teaches that when God brought Israel out of the land he had redeemed them (Exodus 6:6; Exodus 15:13; Deuteronomy 7:8). Therefore, he is frequently called the Redeemer of Israel (Isaiah 47:4; Isaiah 49:7). Redemption is also ascribed to the Babylonian captivity of Israel, when God redeemed Israel by giving Egypt, Cush, and Seba to King Cyrus as their ransom (Isaiah 43:3–4), and freed...
Redemption of Property and Criminals
The Old Testament gives some other examples of redemption. The redemption of property is one of them. If someone became poor and sold part of his property, the Lord commanded that his nearest redeemer come and redeem what his brother had sold (Leviticus 25:25). If that man became wealthy, he could redeem it himself, calculating the cost based on the years since he sold it (Leviticus 25:26–27). If neither option were available, it would be automatically redeemed in the Jubilee year (Leviticus...
Redemption of Firstborns
Another example is the redemption of firstborns. All the male firstborns of Israel were to be set apart to the Lord and sacrificed, as a sign of the Passover event, when God killed every firstborn male animal and human in Egypt as judgement, due to Pharaoh’s stubborn refusal (Exodus 13:14–16), but the Lord commanded that every firstborn donkey in Israel was to be redeemed with a lamb and that every firstborn son was to be redeemed (Exodus 13:11–13; Exodus 34:20). The Levitical priests belonge...
Jesus Was Our Ransom Sacrifice
In the New Testament, redemption is always connected to the saving work of Jesus on the cross, and is never used in a non-religious context. Everyone is in need of redemption because we have all sinned (Romans 3:23) and inflicted upon ourselves God’s wrath (John 3:36). Furthermore, as a result of our transgressions, we have become slaves to sin (John 8:34–36), the elementary principles of the world (Galatians 4:3), and Satan, the prince of the air (Ephesians 2:1–3). In order to save us from t...
Jesus Is the Redeemer of Humanity
Jesus acted as our substitute by offering his own perfect and sinless life (Hebrews 4:15; Hebrews 9:13–14) on the cross as the price that sets believers free from all their sins (Hebrews 9:15; Revelation 1:5), the power of death, and the devil (Hebrews 2:14–15). The Bible often says that we have redemption through the blood of Jesus (Ephesians 1:7; 1 Peter 1:17–19; Revelation 5:9), which refers to his sacrificial death on the cross. Jesus suffered the punishment of our sins in our place, and...
The Benefits of Jesus’ Sacrifice
Therefore, the Bible says that Jesus has redeemed Christians from lawlessness, that is, our sins (Titus 2:13–14), and the curse of the Law, which is the task of obtaining righteousness through perfectly obeying God’s Law, which no one but Jesus has done (Galatians 3:13–14). We are justified by grace alone through faith alone, because of Jesus’ redemption (Romans 3:23–25). His redemption was what made salvation possible to begin with. In addition to freedom from captivity to sin, death, and th...
