Pada: means to ransom, redeem, rescue, deliver

Gaal: means to redeem, act as kinsman-redeemer, avenge, revenge,

Goel, in the Hebrew Bible and the rabbinical tradition, is a person who, as

Gaal: continued
 In relation to slavery: Under this redemptive process It was the duty of a
man's redeemer, usually his next of kin (relative), to buy back the
freedom that he had lost Leviticus 25:47-49.
 In relation to property: Property sold under similar conditions could
likewise be redeemed, thus keeping it within the family (Lev 25:24-25 ;
Ruth 4:1-6 ; Jer 32:6-9 ).

Kaphar:
The meaning of the third verb, kaphar, is to cover. To cover sin, atone,
or make expiation are associated meanings. The substantive kopher
(ransom) is of interest in that it signifies a price paid for a life that has
become forfeit (Exod 21:30 ; 30:11-16 ).

12. The Purposes for The Son
The Process of Redemption in The New Testament
In the new testament, the concept of redemption is used in context of a
marketplace transaction with reference to the purchase of goods or the
releasing of a slave. With this concept in mind, new testament writers
sought to represent Jesus Christ as the promise redeemer of mankind, who
will come to pay the ransom price for our deliverance from the bondage of
sin, death and the devil.

The central theme of redemption in Scripture is that God has taken the
initiative to act compassionately on behalf of those who are powerless
to help themselves. The New Testament makes clear that divine
redemption includes God's identification with humanity in its plight,
and the securing of liberation of humankind through the obedience,
suffering, death, and resurrection of the incarnate Son.
