Apolytrōsis signifie rédemption — être racheté et mis en liberté, souvent moyennant un prix. En Christ, le mot nomme notre délivrance du péché par son sang.

Apolytrōsis pictures the freeing of a slave or captive through ransom paid. The New Testament uses it of God’s saving work in Christ: “in him we have apolytrōsis through his blood, the forgiveness of our trespasses.”

The word holds together two truths: we are really enslaved by sin, and we have really been bought out of that slavery at a real cost. Redemption is not a metaphor; it is the gospel.
