Absolve (verb)(especially in religion or law) means to free someone from guilt, blame, or responsibility for something.

Eg: (1) The report absolved her from/of all blame for the accident.

(2) The priest absolved him of all his sins.

(3) The court absolved her of guilt in his death.

It also means to set free or release, as from some duty, obligation, or responsibility (usually followed by from):

Eg: To be absolved from one's oath.
