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, Leviticus 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.
