Consider carefully what is before youfor their Redeemer is strong The word "Redeemer" in Hebrew is "go'el," which refers to a kinsman-redeemer. This concept is deeply rooted in the cultural and legal practices of ancient Israel, where a close relative had the responsibility to redeem or avenge a family member in distress. This could involve buying back property, marrying a widow to preserve the family line, or avenging blood. In the context of Proverbs, the "Redeemer" is a divine figure, representing God Himself. The strength of the Redeemer underscores His omnipotence and unwavering commitment to justice. This phrase assures believers that God is not only willing but also fully capable of defending and delivering those who are oppressed or wronged. It is a powerful reminder of God's protective nature and His role as a defender of the vulnerable. He will take up their case against you Parallel Commentaries ...
