Below are articles from the following dictionary:
Vine's Expository Dictionary of New Testament Words
1 Strong's Number: g59 Greek: agorazo

Buy, Bought:

primarily, "to frequent the market-place," the agora, hence "to do business there, to buy or sell," is used lit., e.g., in Mat 14:15. Figuratively Christ is spoken of as having bought His redeemed, making them His property at the price of His blood (i.e., His death through the shedding of His blood in expiation for their sins), 1Cr 6:20; 7:23; 2Pe 2:1; see also Rev 5:9; 14:3, 4 (not as AV, "redeemed"). Agorazo does not mean "to redeem."
See REDEEM.

2 Strong's Number: g5608 Greek: oneomai

Buy, Bought:

"to buy, in contradistinction to selling," is used in Act 7:16, of the purchase by Abraham of a burying place.

Note: In Jam 4:13 (AV) the verb emporeuomai (Eng., "emporium") is rendered "buy and sell." Its meaning is to trade, traffic, RV. It primarily denotes to travel, to go on a journey, then, to do so for traffic purposes; hence to trade; in 2Pe 2:3, "make merchandise of."
See MERCHANDISE.
