Topical Lexicon

Word Origin: Derived from the Greek verb λυτρόω (lytroō), meaning "to ransom" or "to redeem."

Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: • 1350 גָּאַל (ga'al): A Hebrew verb meaning "to redeem" or "to act as a kinsman-redeemer." This term is often used in the Old Testament to describe the act of redemption, particularly in the context of familial duty and divine deliverance.

• 6306 פָּדוּי (paduy): A Hebrew noun meaning "redeemed" or "ransomed," used to describe those who have been delivered or set free, often in a spiritual or covenantal sense.

These Hebrew terms provide a foundational understanding of the concept of redemption that is further developed in the New Testament through the Greek term λυτρωτής, emphasizing the continuity of God's redemptive plan from the Old to the New Covenant.

Usage: The term λυτρωτής is used in the New Testament to describe one who redeems or delivers, often in a spiritual or salvific context.

Context: The Greek term λυτρωτής (lytrōtēs) is a noun that signifies a redeemer or deliverer, particularly one who pays a ransom to liberate another from captivity or bondage. In the New Testament, this concept is deeply rooted in the understanding of Jesus Christ as the ultimate Redeemer of humanity. The role of a redeemer in biblical times often involved paying a price to free someone from slavery or debt, and this imagery is applied to the spiritual deliverance offered through Christ.

In the Berean Standard Bible, the concept of redemption is central to the message of salvation. While the specific term λυτρωτής may not appear frequently, its underlying theme is pervasive throughout the New Testament. For instance, in Luke 1:68, the idea of God visiting and redeeming His people is celebrated: "Blessed be the Lord, the God of Israel, because He has visited and redeemed His people." This reflects the fulfillment of God's promise to send a Redeemer.

Theologically, λυτρωτής is associated with the sacrificial work of Christ, who, through His death and resurrection, redeems believers from the bondage of sin and death. This redemption is not merely a physical liberation but a profound spiritual transformation, granting eternal life and reconciliation with God.
