. LutroÇ, “to release”(1) to redeem Israel (Luke 24:21)(2) to give Himself to redeem and purify a people (Titus 2:14)(3) to be a sinless substitute (I Pet. 1:18-19)c. LutrÇsis, “redemption,” “deliverance,” or “liberation”(1) Zacharias’ prophecy about Jesus, Luke 1:68(2) Anna’s praise to God for Jesus, Luke 2:38(3) Jesus’ better, once-offered sacrifice, Heb. 9:124. ApolytrÇsisa. redemption at the Second Coming (cf. Acts 3:19-21)(1) Luke 21:28(2) Romans 8:23(3) Ephesians 1:14; 4:30(4) Hebrews 9:15b. redemption in Christ’s death(1) Romans 3:24(2) I Corinthians 1:30(3) Ephesians 1:7(4) Colossians 1:145. Antilytron (cf. I Tim. 2:6). This is a crucial text (as is Titus 2:14) which links release toJesus’ substitutionary death on the cross. He is the one and only acceptable sacrifice, theone who dies for “all” (cf. John 1:29; 3:16-17; 4:42; I Tim. 2:4; 4:10; Titus 2:11; II Pet.3:9; I John 2:2; 4:14).B. The theological concept in the NT.1. Mankind is enslaved to sin (cf. John 8:34; Rom. 3:10-18; 6:23).2. Mankind’s bondage to sin has been revealed by the OT Mosaic Law (cf. Galatians 3) andJesus’ Sermon on the Mount (cf. Matthew 5-7). Human performance has become a deathsentence (cf. Col. 2:14).3. Jesus, the sinless lamb of God, has come and died in our place (cf. John 1:29; II Cor.5:21). We have been purchased from sin so that we might serve God (cf. Romans 6).4. By implication both YHWH and Jesus are “near kin” who act on our behalf. Thiscontinues the familial metaphors (i.e., father, husband, son, brother, near kin).5. Redemption was not a price paid to Satan (i.e., Medieval theology), but the reconciliationof God’s word and God’s justice with God’s love and full provision in Christ. At thecross peace was restored, human rebellion was forgiven, the image of God in mankind isnow fully functional again in intimate fellowship!6. There is still a future aspect of redemption (cf. Rom. 8:23; Eph. 1:14; 4:30), whichinvolves our resurrection bodies and personal intimacy with the Triune God.29:24 This verse is the opposite of vv. 9-12,14. Revelation and understanding shall return to God’speople through His called leadership, both civil and religious! This is a lifting of the blindness anddeafness of 6:9-10!!291
