Theological / Devotional

Redeem. Heb. ga’al (see on Ruth 2:20), “to act as a kinsman.”

Precious. God will not permit the blood of saints to go unavenged (see 1 Sam. 26:21; 2 Kings 1:13; Ps. 116:15). “Never is the tempest-tried soul more dearly loved by his Saviour than when he is suffering reproach for the truth’s sake”.
