Well regarding the ransom, Jehovah is a very legal & just God, the scriptures show how he did pay for the overage.

But the ransom of Jesus was a perfect life for a perfect life , like God said at (Genesis 9:5-6) . . .. From the hand of every living creature shall I ask it back; and from the hand of man, from the hand of each one who is his brother, shall I ask back the soul of man. 6 Anyone shedding man’s blood, by man will his own blood be shed, for in God’s image he made man. . .

(Romans 5:12) 12 That is why, just as through one man sin entered into the world and death through sin, and thus death spread to all men because they had all sinned—.

(Romans 5:19-20) . . .For just as through the disobedience of the one man many were constituted sinners, likewise also through the obedience of the one [person] many will be constituted righteous. 20 . . .

So Adam spilled perfect Blood, Jesus spilled his PERFECT blood to pay for what Adam lost,

you have to understand that God cannot break his own laws, he rules by the law of love, but if he broke his laws he would undermine his authority with his heavenly civilation.

(Job 1:6) 6 Now it came to be the day when the sons of the [true] God entered to take their station before Jehovah, and even Satan proceeded to enter right among them.

(Daniel 7:9-10) . . .I kept on beholding until there were thrones placed and the Ancient of Days sat down. His clothing was white just like snow, and the hair of his head was like clean wool. His throne was flames of fire; its wheels were a burning fire. 10 There was a stream of fire flowing and going out from before him. There were a thousand thousands that kept ministering to him, and ten thousand times ten thousand that kept standing right before him. The Court took its seat, and there were books that were opened.

"It is even so written: “The first man Adam became a living soul.” The last Adam became a life-giving spirit." -1 Cor. 15:45.
The first Adam was HUMAN, PERFECT, AND SON OF GOD; so, to rescue the humankind was necesary someone as him, with this specific caratherisctis. No one in the earth could fill this requirements.
"They have acted ruinously on their own part;
They are not his children, the defect is their own.
A generation crooked and twisted!" -Deut. 32:5.
But Jesus came and feld up with all of the requirements.
"For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, a man, Christ Jesus, 6 who gave himself a corresponding ransom for all—[this is] what is to be witnessed to at its own particular times."- 1 Tim. 2:5, 6.
¿Corresponding with? With de very human life which send us to sin and death, Adam.

when Adam and Eve chose to give up perfection for the knowledge of good and evil ,then sin came in to play and to come home it would take perfection to open the doors to Paradise , and of course you have any idea who that would be and Jesus who would be the key , one of eves daughters who is Mary and god him self had Jesus for this reason the equivalent to perfection is perfection.

Because Adam "threw away" his perfect life; and was therefore unable to produce perfect offspring to buy back what he gave away. So it took an equally perfect life in exchange, and only Jesus would qualify.
