Restitution

Job 20:10,18. The repairing of wrongs done, and the restoring of what one has wrongfully taken from another, are strictly enjoined in Scripture, and are a necessary evidence of true repentance, Exodus 22:1-15; Nehemiah 5:1-13; Luke 19:8. Restoration should be perfect and just; replacing, so far as possible, all that has been taken, with interest, Le 6:1-6; 24:21. In Acts 3:21, the time of the "restitution of all things," is the time when Christ shall appear in his glory, and establish his kingdom as foretold in the Scriptures.

Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary

1. (n.) The act of restoring anything to its rightful owner, or of making good, or of giving an equivalent for any loss, damage, or injury; indemnification.

2. (v.) That which is offered or given in return for what has been lost, injured, or destroyed; compensation.

3. (n.) The act of returning to, or recovering, a former state; as, the restitution of an elastic body.

4. (n.) The movement of rotation which usually occurs in childbirth after the head has been delivered, and which causes the latter to point towards the side to which it was directed at the beginning of labor.
