Ransom

Ransom es la práctica de mantener a un prisionero o un objeto para extorsionar dinero o propiedad para asegurar su liberación, o puede referirse a la suma de dinero involucrada. En una ley alemana temprana, un concepto similar fue llamado weregild. Cuando el rescate significa "pago", la palabra viene a través del viejo francés rançon del latín redemptio = "comprar de nuevo": comparar "redención". En el judaísmo el rescate se llama kofer-nefesh. Entre otros usos, la palabra se aplicó al impuesto a la encuesta de medio siclo que debe pagar cada varón de más de veinte años en el censo.
