Definition and Meaning:
The term "recompensed" refers to the act of giving something in return for a service, loss, or suffering. In biblical terms, it often denotes the idea of divine justice, where God rewards or punishes individuals according to their deeds. The concept of recompense is closely tied to the principles of justice, righteousness, and divine retribution.

Biblical Usage:
The concept of recompense is prevalent throughout the Bible, illustrating both God's justice and mercy. It is used to describe how God deals with humanity, rewarding the righteous and punishing the wicked.

Old Testament References:
In the Old Testament, recompense is frequently associated with God's covenantal promises and His justice. For instance, in Deuteronomy 32:35, God declares, "Vengeance is Mine; I will repay." This verse underscores the belief that God will ultimately bring justice, repaying individuals according to their actions.

The Psalms also reflect this theme. Psalm 18:20 states, "The LORD has rewarded me according to my righteousness; He has repaid me according to the cleanness of my hands." Here, the psalmist acknowledges that God recompenses individuals based on their moral conduct.

New Testament References:
In the New Testament, the concept of recompense is often linked to the final judgment and the eternal rewards or punishments that follow. In Romans 12:19, Paul advises believers, "Do not avenge yourselves, beloved, but leave room for God’s wrath. For it is written: 'Vengeance is Mine; I will repay, says the Lord.'" This passage echoes the Old Testament assurance that God will administer justice.

The idea of recompense is also evident in the teachings of Jesus. In Matthew 16:27, Jesus states, "For the Son of Man will come in His Father’s glory with His angels, and then He will repay each one according to what he has done." This highlights the eschatological aspect of recompense, where ultimate justice is meted out at the end of time.

Theological Implications:
The doctrine of recompense is integral to understanding God's nature as just and righteous. It reassures believers that God is aware of human actions and will respond appropriately. This concept encourages ethical living, as individuals are reminded that their actions have eternal consequences.

Recompense also emphasizes God's sovereignty and His role as the ultimate judge. It serves as a warning to the wicked and a comfort to the righteous, affirming that God will rectify all wrongs and reward faithfulness.

Practical Application:
Believers are encouraged to trust in God's justice and refrain from seeking personal vengeance. Instead, they are to live righteously, knowing that God will recompense them for their faithfulness. This trust in divine recompense fosters patience, forgiveness, and a commitment to living according to God's will.

Conclusion:
While the Bible consistently teaches that God will recompense individuals according to their deeds, it also emphasizes His mercy and grace. Through faith in Jesus Christ, believers are assured of forgiveness and the promise of eternal life, underscoring the balance between justice and mercy in God's character.(imp. & p. p.) of Recompense.2865. komizo -- to bear, carry
