What does the Bible say about being delivered from captivity?

Answered in 1 source

The Bible speaks of God's elect being delivered from captivity by Christ, who contends with the powers that hold them.

The concept of deliverance from captivity is vividly depicted in Isaiah 49:24-26, where God assures His people that even the lawful captives of the mighty shall be delivered. This deliverance is foreshadowed in the history of Israel's captivity to Babylon, which parallels the spiritual captivity of all humanity to sin and the devil. Through Christ, God's elect are liberated from the grasp of their oppressors, illustrating the profound truth that our salvation is entirely a work of God, who sends His Son to redeem those chosen for salvation.
