Reinserted deleted record in rails using the console

Question

I have a record which I deleted and now I need to reinsert it with the same id as before. I have the whole object saved. Is there a way I can directly insert this back in the db using the console?

Note: I'm on Rails 4

So I understood how to add it, there is one issue I was using devise and now I don't have the whole encrypted password hash. Is there a way around that? Because it is a user account

Provided you know the password, you could do:

User.new(password: 'user_password').encrypted_password

and insert that value in the db.
