Kinsman redeemer - Coffee with Jesus Podcast Part 1
Welcome to another episode of Coffee with Jesus.
Today, Bill and Brian dive into a fascinating topic—the Kinsman Redeemer. To set the stage, we look at a moment from the book of Jeremiah, where he is instructed to buy a field in Anathoth while imprisoned: “So Hanamel, my uncle's son, came to me in the court of the prison, according to the word of the Lord, and said unto me, ‘Buy my field, I pray thee, that is in Anathoth, which is in the country of Benjamin.’” Now, you might wonder, why would Jeremiah buy a field during a time of captivity when the Israelites would be exiled for 70 years? What purpose does it serve?
This act is symbolic and prophetic. Jeremiah's purchase is an expression of faith that God would bring His people back to the land. It represents a hope and a promise of redemption. Much like Jeremiah’s act, the concept of the Kinsman Redeemer in the Bible is rich in meaning, pointing us forward to an even greater act of redemption fulfilled in Christ.
Revelation 5:2 presents a profound scene: a strong angel declares, "Who is worthy to open the book and to loose the seals thereof?" The scroll in God’s right hand is sealed, and its contents remain a mystery. No one in heaven, on earth, or under the earth is found worthy to open it, and John, understanding the gravity of this, weeps deeply. This moment shows the need for a Redeemer—someone who meets all the qualifications to reclaim what was lost.
Just as Boaz, the kinsman redeemer in the book of Ruth, was willing and able to redeem Naomi’s land and take Ruth as his bride, Revelation reveals that only one person can open the scroll: Jesus Christ, the Lion of the Tribe of Judah and the Lamb that was slain. This connection between the Old Testament kinsman redeemer and Jesus as our eternal Redeemer highlights the consistency of God’s plan through Scripture.
Jesus, as the Lamb, fulfilled His role as the sacrificial Redeemer in His first coming. But as the Lion, He will return to enforce His rightful claim over creation, redeeming not just a plot of land but the entire world from the grip of evil. This dual role, portrayed as both Lion and Lamb, was a truth the Pharisees struggled to comprehend, as Jesus emphasized in Matthew 22 when He asked, “If David calls him ‘Lord,’ how is he his son?”
Ultimately, the concept of the Kinsman Redeemer is not just about reclaiming lost property or status; it’s about the restoration of all things under God’s sovereignty. Jesus’ return will fulfill the promises made throughout the Old Testament, confirming His covenant with David and ruling from His throne. This powerful truth echoes through the Scriptures, revealing the depth of God’s plan for redemption and restoration, and it’s something every believer should grasp as we anticipate His second coming.
