Definition: The word "aleatory" in the KJV translates to "random or arbitrary," and is often used figuratively, referring to things that are not predetermined but rather fall into a series of random outcomes. In Hebrews 11:5-8, we read, "For by grace you have been saved through faith; and this is not from yourselves; it is the gift of God; not by works, so that no one may boast." In other words, salvation comes from God's mercy rather than merit or a work done by us. However, as in many of these verses, it is important to understand that "aleatory" does not imply an inability or lack of control over events. Instead, it suggests the occurrence of random or unpredictable outcomes, often attributed to divine intervention or grace, without any direct contribution from human efforts or effortlessness.
