The Thirty Divided by Six Redemption

Thursday, July 22, 2021

Messiah was bought for thirty shekels of silver, the price one would pay for a slave. In Hebrew, this price is also called the pidyon, the redemption price required for every first-born son. In Scripture, the number of man is six. Divide the price of Messiah's life, thirty pieces of silver, by six and you get five shekels, the price of redemption. The price of Messiah's life divided by five, the price of redemption, equals six, the number of man. Messiah's life was not the redemption price of one person, but the redemption price for all. Every sin, bondage, freedom, healing, restoration, it's all there, covered in the price for Messiah's life. If there's anything you haven't lifted up to God, any sin, guilt, anything out of God's will, the price for its redemption is already covered. The transaction isn't complete until you give it to God. Whatever the debt, the Lord has paid it. Whatever the loss, the Lord has redeemed it; you just have to release it into His hands. In the thirty pieces of silver, the price paid for Messiah's life, it's all been covered.
