== Exegesis ==

* v. 4 - The word redeemed refers to being the "next of kin" and being willing to "buy back his relative's property" or "marry his widow" ([http://www.e-sword.net/dictionaries.html Strongs]) and thus implies that the act of redeeming is a family obligation. Continuing the metaphor, to be redeemed is to be saved because a man has died and can no longer fulfill his family obligations. Drawing this conclusion makes sense in light of [[Gen 2:17]], "for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die." Since sin causes [http://www.virtualtheology.org/doctrines/index.php/Second_Death spiritual death] and a loss of eternal blessings, being redeemed is the purchasing back or redemption of those blessings.
