More explanation about New Covenant Literal Application
The New Covenant Literal Application Code (NCLA) is an interpretive guide used by the authors to indicate which person categories a mitzvah applies to, and at what level of literal compliance.
It combines person categories such as Jewish, K'rov Yisrael, and Gentile, together with male/female distinctions and an application level such as mandated, recommended, optional, or prohibited.
This code reflects the authors' interpretive opinion and is provided for prayerful consideration. On this page, the technical code is summarized into plain language to help new readers understand it more easily.
Detailed codes: GFm - Gentile female, mandated | GMm - Gentile male, mandated | JFm - Jewish female, mandated | JMm - Jewish male, mandated | KFm - K'rovat Yisrael female, mandated | KMm - K'rov Yisrael male, mandated

Commentary
Rabbi Michael Rudolph
Redemption means receiving something back and, in the Bible, can mean receiving back land, animals, or people. Redemption in this Mitzvah refers to receiving us back and saving us from the disastrous consequence of our sins. It is not an exaggeration to say that Yeshua’s atoning sacrifice on the Roman stake was a ransom (a price) that he paid for our redemption – forgiveness for our sins, restoration to righteousness, and release from bondage of sin and death. Comment by Daniel C. Juster The verses supporting this Mitzvah are not in command form but, as in many cases, they are implied. They all support the idea of believing in Yeshua, and that means all the biblical truths about him. As Paul says in I Corinthians 15:3-5 : “For among the first things I passed on to you was what I also received, namely this: the Messiah died for our sins, in accordance with what the Tanakh says; and he was buried; and he was raised on the third day, in accordance with what the Tanakh says; and he was seen by Kefa, then by the Twelve;” It implies that we, similar to the Corinthians, are to believe that Yeshua died for our sins which, in turn, implies that we are to believe all else about him that Scripture reveals.
