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
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.
