 Redeemer
    Heb. goel; i.e., one charged with the duty of restoring the
    rights of another and avenging his wrongs (Lev. 25:48, 49; Num.
    5:8; Ruth 4:1; Job 19:25; Ps. 19:14; 78:35, etc.). This title is
    peculiarly applied to Christ. He redeems us from all evil by the
    payment of a ransom (q.v.). (See REDEMPTION.)
