What does it mean that Christ recovered all?

Answered in 1 source

Christ recovered all refers to His complete redemption of His people, restoring everything lost through Adam's fall (Ephesians 1:7).

The concept that Christ recovered all is rooted in the understanding of redemption and the work of Christ on behalf of His people. In Ephesians 1:7, the Apostle Paul reminds us that in Christ we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of His grace. This means that through His sacrificial death, Jesus restored that which was lost due to Adam's sin—our righteousness, spiritual life, and fellowship with God. Just as David recovered all his possessions and family in 1 Samuel 30, Christ's victory over sin and death guarantees that every aspect of our being is restored. His resurrection assures believers that nothing is lacking in their salvation; we have been given the fullness of Christ, who is made unto us wisdom, righteousness, sanctification, and redemption (1 Corinthians 1:30).
