To redeem is to cause the security for a loan to be lifted. If, for example, you pawn your watch, you leave your watch as security with the pawnbroker in exchange for the loan. In order to get the watch back, you need to get the security on the watch lifted, which you can only do by paying back the loan. Thus by paying off the loan you redeem the watch. You can redeem a property which is mortgaged in the same way, by paying off the mortgage. The property is then redeemed.
The word is also used by Christians to describe their belief about the effect of Christ's death. The human race owed a debt to God and Christ paid the debt by dying, thus lifting the security. The analogy does not do much to clarify the theology, but Redeemer is a favourite name for Jesus.
