This noun form describes the act or process of redemption—setting captives free through ransom payment. While the verb emphasizes the action of redeeming, the noun focuses on redemption as an accomplished fact or expected event. Luke 1:68 blesses God because 'he has visited and redeemed his people,' celebrating redemption as accomplished through the coming Messiah. Similarly, Anna spoke of the infant Jesus 'to all who were waiting for the redemption of Jerusalem' (Luke 2:38). Hebrews 9:12 declares that Christ 'secured an eternal redemption' through his own blood rather than animal sacrifices. The word captures both the costliness and completeness of Christ's redemptive work.
