"Heb. goel; i.e., one charged with the duty of restoring the" "rights of another and avenging his wrongs (Lev. 25:48, 49; Num." "5:8; Ruth 4:1; Job 19:25; Ps. 19:14; 78:35, etc.). This title is" peculiarly applied to Christ. He redeems us from all evil by the payment of a ransom (q.v.). (See [524]REDEMPTION.)
