Ellicott's Commentary
Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(11) For the Lord hath redeemed Jacob . . .--Of the two verbs "redeem" and "ransom" here used, the first expresses the act of setting free, the other that of acting as the goel, or nearest kinsman, who was not only the liberator, but the avenger of those to whom he stood in that relation. (Comp. Numbers 35:19; Deuteronomy 19:6; 2Samuel 14:11; Isaiah 59:20; Psalm 19:14.) The idea of a "ransom," however--i.e., of a price paid for freedom--does not lie in the Hebrew word.Parallel Commentaries ...HebrewForכִּֽי־ (kî-)ConjunctionStrong's 3588: A relative conjunctionthe LORDיְהוָ֖ה (Yah·weh)Noun - proper - masculine singularStrong's 3068: LORD -- the proper name of the God of Israelhas ransomedפָדָ֥ה (p̄ā·ḏāh)Verb - Qal - Perfect - third person masculine singularStrong's 6299: To sever, ransom, gener, to release, preserveJacobיַעֲקֹ֑ב (ya·‘ă·qōḇ)Noun - proper - masculine singularStrong's 3290: Jacob -- a son of Isaac, also his descand redeemedוּגְאָל֕וֹ (ū·ḡə·’ā·lōw)Conjunctive waw | Verb - Qal - Conjunctive perfect - third person masculine singular | third person masculine singularStrong's 1350: To redeem, act as kinsmanhim fromמִמֶּֽנּוּ׃ (mim·men·nū)Preposition | third person masculine singularStrong's 4480: A part of, from, out ofthe handמִיַּ֖ד (mî·yaḏ)Preposition-m | Noun - feminine singular constructStrong's 3027: A handthat had overpowered him.חָזָ֥ק (ḥā·zāq)Adjective - masculine singularStrong's 2389: Strong, stout, mightyJump to PreviousFree Hand Hands Jacob Price Ransom Ransomed Redeem Redeemed Redeemeth Strong Stronger
