It conveys the idea of liberation or deliverance, often through the payment of a ransom. This term is used to describe the spiritual deliverance that believers receive through the sacrificial death of Jesus Christ, who paid the price for humanity's sins.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In the ancient Greco-Roman world, the concept of redemption was commonly associated with the freeing of slaves or prisoners through the payment of a ransom. This cultural understanding provides a backdrop for the New Testament's use of "lutrósis" to describe the spiritual liberation offered through Christ. The Jewish tradition also included the idea of redemption, particularly in the context of the Exodus, where God redeemed Israel from slavery in Egypt. This historical event foreshadows the ultimate redemption through Christ.<div class="vheading2">HELPS Word-studies</div><p class="discovery"><b>Cognate: 3085</b> <i>lýtrōsis</i> (a feminine noun) – properly, the payment of the full <i>ransom-price</i> to free a slave – particularly the <i>redemption</i> of an individual.
