Why is understanding Jesus as our kinsman Redeemer important?

Answered in 1 source

Understanding Jesus as our kinsman Redeemer emphasizes His close relational connection to us.

The concept of kinsman Redeemer is crucial as it highlights Jesus' intimate relationship with humanity. In Hebrew, the term 'goel' signifies that He is our near relative who redeems us from bondage. This is illustrated in the story of Ruth and is fulfilled in Christ, who became one with us to save us. His incarnation allowed God to become our brother and fulfill the role of a Redeemer, thus ensuring that our salvation is deeply connected to His true humanity.
