Ransom
The release of property or a person
in return for payment of a demanded price. The price or payment
of money demanded or paid for such release. Used most often as the
positive representation of redemption (ex: Exodus 21:30, 'sum of
money'; Numbers 35:31-32, Isaiah 43:3, 'ransom'). In the New Testament,
Matthew 20:28 and Mark 10:45 describe ransom as the "payment of
money."
