Is That all you got from that scripture? Actually we've come full circle.
Leviticus 25
7 “Suppose a foreigner or temporary resident becomes rich while living among you. If any of your fellow Israelites fall into poverty and are forced to sell themselves to such a foreigner or to a member of his family, 48 they still retain the right to be bought back, even after they have been purchased. They may be bought back by a brother, 49 an uncle, or a cousin. In fact, anyone from the extended family may buy them back.
these things aren't put in the Bible willy nilly, there is a reason why it's there.
John 5:39-47
39 Search the scriptures; for in them ye think ye have eternal life: and they are they which testify of me.
That passage is describing the "Kinsman Redeemer". If you are sold into bondage you can have a relative buy you back. Likewise the sinner being in bondage to sin, had to rely upon the blood of animals. Animal blood couldn't redeem him, and there is no Human worthy enough. So God himself took on human flesh and became our "Kinsman" in order to buy us back with his own blood.
see the Bible lines up perfectly. the scriptures cannot be broken, that was the only way he could redeem mankind without breaking the scripture.
