Making it right — paying back what you stole or damaged, plus extra
lightbulbMaking it right — not just saying sorry, but actually restoring what was taken or broken
3 mentions across 3 books
OT law required that wrongs be made right materially, not just spiritually. If you stole an ox, you paid back five (Exodus 22:1). The guilt offering required repayment plus 20% (Leviticus 6:5). Zacchaeus voluntarily offered fourfold restitution when he met Jesus (Luke 19:8). The principle: genuine repentance shows up in your wallet and your actions, not just your words.
