The Meaning of Redemption

Commentators explain that "redeem" here means to rescue or deliver. While in the Old Testament this often meant physical deliverance, scholars see it pointing to the ultimate redemption through Christ. The great price God pays is because His people are precious to Him, securing their forgiveness, justification, and eternal safety.
