Levitikus 4

Amadini esono ( Levitikus 4 )

Njengoko sesibonile, “edinini elinyukayo, nakwelinye idini elivumba limnandi, weza umsondezi, ukuze enze umsondezo wakhe, into engumfanekiselo wakhe, into emnandi, emnandi kuye [uNaphakade]. Kwidini lesono neletyala, elingelilo ivumba elithozamisayo, lowo unikelayo wayesiza njengomoni ogwetyiweyo, ukuze amkele umnikelo wakhe owawumele yena ngokwakhe, umgwebo ngenxa yesono okanye isiphoso sakhe…. Kwesinye isihlandlo, umsondezo wamkholeka, ukuze abonise ukuba umsondezi lowo ubekholekile kuYehova; yaye ukutyiwa okupheleleyo komnikelo esibingelelweni kwakubonisa ukuba uThixo uyamkholisa lowo unikelayo, yaye uyaneliseka. Kwelinye icala, idini laphoswa phandle, latshiswa, kungekhona etafileni kaThixo, esibingelelweni, kodwa entlango ngaphandle kweminquba; ukubonisa ukuba lowo unikelayo emnikelweni wakhe uyawunyamezela umgwebo kaThixo, aze akhutshelwe ngaphandle kobuso baKhe njengesiqalekiso…. Kanti ke idini lesono kwakufuneka 'lingabi nasiphako,' kanye njengedini elinyukayo…. Inxalenye eneneni, 'inqatha,' yayitshiswa esibingelelweni, ukubonisa ukuba umnikelo, nangona wawusenziwa ngumdibi wesono, wawugqibelele ngokwawo. 'Amanqatha,' njengoko sele sibonile kweminye iminikelo, amele impilo jikelele kunye namandla omzimba uphela. Ukutshiswa kwayo kuThixo yayibubungqina obumiselweyo bokuba ixhoba elinikelwe ngenxa yesono lalisamkelekile ngokwalo” (Jukes, iphe. 142-143, 146, 165).

Kwakukho imimiselo eyahlukahlukeneyo yomnikelo wesono kuxhomekeka ekubeni ungubani lowo unikelayo. Ukuba isono esicanyagushelwayo yayisesebandla lonke okanye sobubingeleli, igazi lenkunzi yenkomo lalimele lingeniswe ngaphakathi kweNdawo Engcwele lize litshizwe esibingelelweni sesiqhumiso. Oku kwakungeyomfuneko kumlawuli waseburhulumenteni okanye kumntu oqhelekileyo. Umntu omnye onetyala wayengayi kubuphazamisa ngokupheleleyo ubomi bokomoya bohlanga. Isono ke phakathi kwabantu bonke nababingeleli. Kwaye, ke ngoko, isibingelelo sesiqhumiso, esasimela imithandazo yabantu bakaThixo abanyukela etroneni Yakhe, ngoko ke, ukunxulumana kwabo kunye naye, kwakumele ukuba kwaso kuhlanjululwe kwibala lesono. Kwakhona kufanele kuqondwe ukuba xa idini lalingenzelwanga bona, ababingeleli babefanele badle inxalenye yalo. Ngaloo ndlela, baneliseka xa iimfuno zomgwebo kaThixo zahlangatyezwana baza balondolozwa nobomi bokomoya bohlanga. Kodwa xa umbingeleli esicamagushela isono sakhe, yonke loo nkomo yayimele itshiselwe ngaphandle kweminquba, kuba kwakungekho mntu uvumelekileyo ukuba angene ngesono sakhe.

Amadini esono akhethekileyo kumbingeleli nebandla ayebingelelwa ngoMhla Wocamagusho (bona iLevitikus 16:11-19, 27). Ekuphela kweyantlukwano yayikukuba ngeSicamagushelo isilwanyana sebandla lonke sasichazwa njengebhokhwe (iibhokhwe zazisetyenziswa njengedini lesono lebandla nakwezinye iimeko ezikhethekileyo) yaye, ngaloo mini kuphela, igazi lalithatyathwa ngaphaya kwedini lesono. isibingelelo sesiqhumiso kwiNgcwele kangcwele.

Ngokucacileyo uMesiya uYahshua wazalisekisa idini lesono ngokufa endaweni yethu. Kodwa kukho ingqiqo yokuba lo mbingelelo uzaliseka nakuthi—ngendlela yesibini. UJukes uyacacisa: “Makube lee kum ukuba ndenze impazamo kule ngongoma, ngokungathi ndandicinga ukuba ingcwele yayinokuzicamagushela yena okanye abanye…. Nangona kunjalo, kukho ingqiqo nomlinganiselo apho umbingelelo wesono unomlingani wawo kuthi, njengoko uhambelana nokuzincama kwethu: kukho uluvo lokuba umKristu angasithwala isono, aze afumane isigwebo saso enyameni yakhe enokufa…. Ukufa kukaKristu esenyameni ngenxa yesono kwaba ngumzekelo kuthi: nathi simele, ngoko, sife kunye naye…. Ongcwele, njengokuba egwetyiwe ngokobuqu bukaKristu, esazi ukuba uKristu uwuthwalele umnqamlezo, ulandela ngalo mnqamlezo, ukuba agwebe aze abulale konke oko akufumeneyo kuye kusachasene neNkosi yakhe. Inyama ekuye ichasene naLowo Ungcwele [thelekisa amaRoma 7:18, 23 ]: inyama ekuye ngoko imele ife…. Inyaniso kaThixo ikukuba, kude lee ekubeni ‘inyama’ okanye ‘umntu omdala’ asindiswe ekufeni ngomnqamlezo, ngawo anikelwe ekufeni aze abethelelwe [ Roma 6:6 ; Galati 2:20 ]; nokuba ukufa kukaKristu, endaweni yokuba kube kukuyekelela isono, okanye ukukhululwa kubomi benyama, ubomi bomntu omdala, kumalungu akhe itywina lokuba inyama yabo ife, esonweni ke, kunye neenkanuko zaso. yaye imisa imele yenziwe yonakele [kwabaseKolose 3:5]” (iphe. 204-206).

UYeremiya 24

Sithabatha inxalenye yethu kaYeremiya ngombono, awawunikwa umprofeti kaYehova nguYehova ngokwakhe. Lo mbono wawunikwa uYeremiya emva kokuthinjwa kokuqala kwabantu baseYerusalem kunye noYekoniya + unyana kaKumkani uYehoyakim, neentloko zonke zakwaYuda neengcibi nabakhandi beempahla. Umbono weengobozi ezimbini zamakhiwane zihleli phambi kwetrone kaYehova. Enye ingobozi yayizele ngamakhiwane avuthiweyo, enjengamakhiwane okuqala;

UYehova uwutolika lo mbono ngoYeremiya (kunye nathi): v.5 “njengala makhiwane alungileyo, ndiya kwenjenjalo ukubaqonda abathinjiweyo bakwaYuda, endibandululeyo kule ndawo, ukuba kulunge kubo, baye ezweni lamaKaledi (iBhabhiloni”. ).” Uprofeta esithi isiphelo sabo siya kuba sisihle yaye uThixo wabo uya kubaxhasa kwixesha elizayo. Iliso lakhe liya kuba phezu kwabo, ababuyise, abatyale, abakhe. Uya kubanika intliziyo yokumazi, babuyele kuye.

Kodwa, ivesi 8 “Ke wona amakhiwane aphangiweyo, angenakudliwa, ngenxa yokuba ephangwe, ndiya kumnikela uZedekiya, iintloko zakhe, abaseleyo baseYerusalem abahleli ezweni laseYiputa. Nguye lo uZedekiya awammiselayo ukumkani uNebhukadenetsare ukuba abe ngukumkani eYerusalem emva kokuthinjwa kukaYekoniya ukumkani. Kwakusekho abantu abahlwempuzekileyo nabasemaphandleni kwelakwaYuda, abayi-10,000 9 bathinjwa eYerusalem. UZedekiya akazange abuye esesikweni, akazange amnyamekele umhlolokazi, iinkedama, ukugcina ukukhululwa konyaka wesixhenxe. Waqhubeka ehamba yaye elawula ngokuchasene noYehova. Ngako oko utsho uThixouThixo 10-26 ukuthi, Ndiya kubenza babe yinto yokukhwankqisa kuzo zonke izikumkani zehlabathi, ukuba babe ngobubi, nongcikivo, nentsini, nesingcikivo, nesiqalekiso, ezindaweni zonke endibagxothela kuzo. [ngoku iza Lev. XNUMX Ndiya kubathumela phakathi kwabo ikrele, ukunqongophala kokutya, nendyikitya yokufa, bade bagqitywe, baphele emhlabeni endawunika bona nooyise.

Iminyaka engamashumi asixhenxe; Umgwebo Kwiintlanga ( Yeremiya 25 )

Esi sahluko sikaYeremiya sabhalwa ngaphambi nje okanye emva nje kokuba uNebhukadenetsare ehlasele kwaYuda—emva kwedabi laseKarkemishe—waza wenza uYehoyakim ukuba afungele ukunyaniseka kuye. Ekubeni kukhankanywa “unyaka wokuqala kaNebhukadenetsare,” kubonakala ngathi kubhekiselwa kwixesha lasemva kokumiselwa kwakhe kwitrone yaseBhabhiloni ngoSeptemba wama-605 B.C.E.—okwenzeka kanye emva kohlaselo lukaYuda. Ukuba kunjalo, ngoko uNebhukadenetsare weza waza wahamba. Akubonakali ngathi wenza umonakalo wokwenene kwaYuda ngeli xesha. Ngokunokwenzeka, njengoko iJiphutha irhoxa, uYehoyakim watshintsha ngokukhawuleza—wabuncama ubutyebi betempile namabanjwa akhankanywe kuDaniyeli 1 ngaphandle kokuxhathisa.

Ukanti uYeremiya ukugqala oko kwenzekileyo njengenguquko—isiqalo sokuzaliseka koko wakuvakalisa ngokomyalelo kaThixo kangangeminyaka engama-23, ekunye nabanye abaprofeti, ukususela ekuqaleni kobulungiseleli bakhe ( bona uYeremiya 25:3 ). Ngelo xesha ngaphambilana, wayevakalise ukuba uYuda wayeza kutshatyalaliswa “entla…yonke imizalwane yasemntla” ( 1:14-15 ). Ngoku, wenza kucace ukuba oku kubhekisela kwimikhosi yaseBhabhiloni eyayiphantsi kukaNebhukadenetsare ( 25:8-9 ).

Indinyana 11-14, ephathelele “iminyaka engamashumi asixhenxe,” iye yabangela ukudideka kwabaninzi. Kubonakala ngathi iBhabhiloni yayiza kuwa kwiminyaka engama-70, yaye eli yayiza kuba lixesha elifanayo nelokuphanziswa kukaYuda. Kamva uYeremiya ubhalela abathinjwa, ebaxelela ukuba uThixo wayeya kubabuyisela kwiLizwe Ledinga “emva kokuzaliseka iminyaka emashumi asixhenxe eBhabheli” ( 29:10 ). Ngokutsho kweyesi- 2 yeziKronike 36:20-23 , ukutshatyalaliswa kweYerusalem ngowama-586 BC kwaqalisa iminyaka engama-70 yokuphanziswa kuzaliseka isiprofeto sikaYeremiya. Kuyabonakala ukuba uDaniyeli noZekariya babeyiqonda ngale ndlela nabo (Daniyeli 9:2; Zakariya 1:12).

Khona buphi ubunzima? UYeremiya wanikela isiprofeto sakhe malunga nexesha lokufuduswa kokuqala kukaYuda (njengoDaniyeli) kwenzeka, ngowama-605 BC Kodwa iBhabhiloni yamandulo yawela kuKoreshi wasePersi ngowama-539 BC, kwiminyaka nje engama-66 kamva. Yaye ngaloo nyaka wokuqala kaKoreshi, ukhupha umyalelo ovumela uYuda ukuba abuyele kwiLizwe Ledinga—kwakhona ezalisekisa isiprofeto sikaYeremiya ( Ezra 1:1 ). Akukho nto ibalulekileyo ibonakala yenzeka ngowama-535 BC, iminyaka engama-70 emva kokuba uYeremiya enike esi siprofeto. Ngapha koko, kubonakala kungaqhelekanga ukuba isohlwayo bekufanele size eBhabheli ngo-535 BC xa uBukhosi baseBhabheli baphela kwiminyaka emine ngaphambili, ngo-539 BC

Siyicombulula njani ke le nto? Simele siqonde ukuba uYeremiya wayeprofeta ngezinto ezimbini ezahlukeneyo, nganye kuzo ithabatha iminyaka engama-70 kodwa kungekhona iminyaka engama-70. Zinxulunyaniswa ngenxa yokuba ukufezwa kwenye kuyimfuneko ukuze kuzaliseke enye. UYeremiya 25:11 ukhankanya: 1) ukuphanziswa kukaYuda; kunye 2) nexesha loBukhosi baseBhabhiloni. Iivesi 8-10 zichaza into yokuqala. Ivesi 11 yindinyana yenguqu, equka omabini la macandelo. Yaye indinyana 12-14 iyayicacisa inkalo yesibini, icacisa ukuba iBhabhiloni yayiza kutshatyalaliswa ekupheleni kolawulo lwayo lobukhosi.

Bahlala ixesha elingakanani uBukhosi baseBhabhiloni? Ngelixa iipokotho zokugqibela zokuchasa ama-Asiriya zaye zapheliswa kwiDabi laseKarkemishe lama-605, uBukhosi baseAsiriya bafikelela esiphelweni ngokuwa kweHaran yimikhosi eyayikhokelwa yiBhabhiloni ngowama-609 (oku yayiluloyiso lomkhosi owawusabele eNineve ekufikeni kwayo. ukuwa kwiminyaka emithathu ngaphambili kwi-612). Ukususela ngowama-609, iBhabhiloni yajika ekulweni nama-Asiriya yaza yayoyisa yonke imimandla eyayisakuba yiAsiriya, ukususela ngelizwe laseArmenia. Ngaloo ndlela, uBukhosi baseBhabhiloni baqalisa ngo-609 BC Emva koko bathabatha iminyaka engama-70, de kwabakho ukoyiswa kukaKoreshi ngowama-539 BC Ngoko eli xesha leminyaka engama-70 lalisele liqalile xa uYeremiya wayeprofeta. Phawula ukuba akazange athethe ngenye indlela.

AmaBhabhiloni ayitshabalalisa iYerusalem, kuquka itempile kaThixo, aza athimba inyambalala yabemi ngowama-586 BC Oku kwafeza ukuphanziswa kwayo, njengoko uYeremiya wakuxela kwangaphambili. Njengoko kukhankanyiwe, ukuwa kweBhabhiloni kuKoreshi ngowama-539 kwabangela ukuba abantu bakwaYuda babuyele kwiLizwe Ledinga. Kodwa ukuhlaziywa kwelizwe kwenzeka ekuhambeni kwexesha. Kubalulekile ukuqaphela ukuba iminyaka engama-70 ukusuka ku-586 BC isizisa ku-516 BC, ixesha lokwakhiwa ngokutsha kwetempile phantsi koZerubhabheli kwagqitywa. Uvuyo nochulumanco olukwindinyana 10—ophindaphindwayo ukususela ku-7:34 nese-16:9—lwabonakala ngeyona ndlela ibalaseleyo ebudeni bemithendeleko yaminyaka le, eyayibhiyozelwa phambi kwetempile. Ngaloo ndlela, ukubuyiselwa kwetempile kwayiphelisa iminyaka engama-70 yokuphanziswa kukaYeremiya. (Bona kwanoYeremiya 33:10-11 , apho ukubuya kwelizwi lovuyo nelovuyo, nelomtshakazi nomyeni, kunxulunyaniswa nokuzisa “umbingelelo wendumiso endlwini kaYehova.”)

Ukuqhubela phambili kwisahluko 25, phawula imbekiselo kwindinyana 13 yeziprofeto ezinxamnye neentlanga ezibhalwe kwincwadi kaYeremiya. Isenokubhekisela nje koko kulandelayo ukususela kwindinyana 15. Kodwa isenokubhekisela nakwisahluko 46-51 . UJamieson, uFausset noBrown’s Commentary uphawula oku ngokuphathelele 25:13 : “Ngokusuka koku, iziprofeto ezinxamnye neentlanga zasemzini ( iziqe. 46-51 ) zimele ukuba sele zibhaliwe. Ngenxa yoko iLXX [inguqulelo yeSeptuagint yesiGrike yeZibhalo zesiHebhere] ifaka apha ezo ziprofeto. Kodwa ukuba babelandele ngoko nangoko (indinyana 13), ngekungekho kufaneleka kokuqwalaselwayo kule ndinyana. Kwala mazwi embekiselo abonisa ukuba zazikho kwenye indawo yale ncwadi, kungekhona ngokomongo wangoko. Kwakungalo nyaka kanye, unyaka wesine kaYehoyakim ( isahl. 36:1, 2 ), awathi uYeremiya wayalelwa ukuba abhale okokuqala kwincwadi eqhelekileyo zonke izinto awayeziprofetele ngoYuda ‘neentlanga’ zasemzini. ekuqaleni kobulungiseleli bakhe. Mhlawumbi, ngexesha elilandelayo, xa ewugqibile wonke umsebenzi, kubandakanywa neekh. 46-51 , uYeremiya ngokwakhe wafaka ibinzana elithi, ‘konke okubhaliweyo kule ncwadi, akuprofetileyo uYeremiya ngeentlanga zonke. Kusenokwenzeka ukuba iziprofeto ekuthethwa ngazo zaphinda zaphindwa, njengezinye ezikuYeremiya, izihlandlo ezininzi; ke ngoko kwingqokelela encinci yantlandlolo basenokuba bemi kwindawo engaphambili; nakwingqokelela ezele ngakumbi elandelayo, kwimeko yabo yamva nekhoyo ngoku.”

Ukususela kuYeremiya 25:15 ukusa ekupheleni kwesahluko, uThixo uvakalisa umgwebo kwiintlanga. Phawula ukuba uqalisa ngeYerusalem noYuda—“beka kuqala: kuba ‘umgwebo uqala endlwini kaThixo’; bangabona banetyala namalungelo abo onqulo angawona makhulu ( IPet. 4:17 [Thelekisa uHezekile 9:6 ] )” ( JFB Commentary, phawula kuYeremiya 25:18 ). Kanti ngobulungisa, umgwebo uziswe kuzo zonke izizwe (jonga ngakumbi ivesi 29).

Kwindinyana yama-26, igama elithi Sheshaki libhekisa kwiBhabheli (bona uYeremiya 51:41). Kuye kwanikelwa iingcaciso ezahlukahlukeneyo ngayo. Esinye sesokuba yabhalwa ngokomgaqo apho unobumba wokuqala woonobumba besiHebhere uvakaliswa ngowokugqibela, njl. njl., ukuze igama elithi Sheshaki lingqinelane ncam neBhabheli. Nangona kunjalo, kubonakala kungeyomfuneko ukulifihla apha igama elithi Bhabheli kuba igama elithi iBhabheli linikiwe ngokusondeleyo kuzo zombini iindawo. Abanye baliguqulela eli gama njengelithetha “Isango Lesango Lobhedu” okanye “Indlu YeNkosana.” Yaye kusekho ezinye iingcaciso (bona i<em>JFB, inqaku elikwi-25:26; Alfred Jones, “Sheshaki,” kaJones’ Dictionary of Old Testament Proper Names, 1997). Mhlawumbi eyona ntsingiselo inokwenzeka kukuba “ilinen yakho ecikizekileyo” ( The KJV Old Testament Hebrew Lexicon, Strong No. 8347, on-line at bible.crosswalk.com/Lexicons/ Hebrew). Oku bekuya kubonakala kunxibelelene nenkcazelo yeBhabhiloni yexesha lesiphelo kwiSityhilelo 18:16 : “loo mzi mkhulu wawuthiwe wambu ngelinen ecikizekileyo, nemfusa, nengubo emfusa, uhonjiswe ngegolide, namatye anqabileyo, neeperile.

Isiprofeto sokugwetywa kweentlanga esikuYeremiya 25 ngokuyinxenye sasibhekisela koko kwenzekayo kumaxesha amandulo. Bonke abo bakhankanywe kwindinyana 17-25 bawela eBhabhiloni. Yandula ke, njengakwindinyana 26, iBhabhiloni yawa emva kwabo. Kodwa le meko iya kuphindwa ngemihla yokugqibela. Ngokwenene, kucacile kwiindinyana 31-33 ukuba inzaliseko yokugqibela yesi siprofeto iya kufika kwixesha lesiphelo, xa ipesenti enkulu yoluntu iya kutshatyalaliswa ebudeni beMini yeNkosi (Thelekisa uIsaya 66:16 ).

IMizekeliso 16

Ngoxa IMizekeliso 15:28 ibonisa ukubaluleka kokufundisisa indlela yokuphendula, eye-16:1 ilungelelanisa oku nesibakala sokuba ukulungiselela komntu kunemida yako. Sakuba senze oko sinako, simele sithembele kuThixo ukuba asenze sikwazi ukuthetha oko kufunekayo ngamaxesha onke. Yaye uya kusinceda koko kufuneka sikuthethe kwiimeko ezinzima (Thelekisa uMarko 13:11; Luka 21:12-15 ).

IMizekeliso 16:2 ibonisa ukuba abantu batyekele ekuzikhohliseni xa kufikelelwa kwiintshukumisa zethu. “Intsebenziswano yale migca mibini kulo mzekeliso ibonisa ukuba uYahweh uyakwazi bhetele ukuzibona intshukumisa zethu kunokuba sinjalo, kungoko kufuneka ubulumko nomyalelo kwimigangatho engaphandle kwethu” (NIV Application Commentary, phawula kwindinyana 2).

Indinyana 4, indinyana esembindini ekhankanywe ngasentla, ibonakala ngathi kwabanye uThixo udale abangendawo ukuba abatshabalalise. Kunoko, ingongoma ikukuba uThixo wenze zonke izinto ukuba zizalisekise iinjongo Zakhe nokuba kwanabo banyula ubungendawo abaliphanzi icebo Lakhe kodwa bafanelekela iinjongo Zakhe, kwimeko yabo bahlangabezane nomgwebo asele ewumisele. Kakade ke, uThixo wamisela kwangaphambili ukuba abathile baya kutshabalala kobu bomi (bona amaRoma 9:14-24)?kodwa oku akuthethi ukuba ekugqibeleni balahlekile. (Ukuze ufumane ingxubusho epheleleyo ngalo mbandela, funda inqaku elithi “Ukumiselwa Kwangaphambili: Ngaba Ulixhoba Nje?,” Iindaba Ezilungileyo, kaMeyi-Juni 2003, iphe. 8-9, 26, kwi-intanethi ku-www.gnmagazine.org/issues/ gn46/predestination.htm).

IMizekeliso 16:5 isebenzisa amagama afanayo nanjenge-11:20-21 .

IMizekeliso 16:7 , esixelela ukuba uThixo ubangela ukuba iintshaba zamalungisa zibe seluxolweni kunye nazo, idlulisela umgaqo oqhelekileyo. IsiBhalo sisinika imizekelo (jonga iGenesis 20:15; 26:27ff; 33:4; 2 Kronike 14:6-7; 17:10). Umlinganiselo othile woxolo uvumela abantu bakaThixo ukuba baphile ubomi babo ekukhonzeni Yena, kwiintsapho zabo nakumnye nomnye. Kakade ke, kukho amaxesha apho uThixo ezivumela iintshaba ukuba zibachase abantu bakhe. Lo mzekeliso umele ugqalwe njengosebenza ebudeni bexesha elide lobomi? yaye uya kuzaliseka ngokupheleleyo kwixesha elizayo.

Inxalenye yesiBini yeNgqokelela Engundoqo Isininzi Isithethantonye ( IMizekeliso 16:9? 17:1 )
Ukuqhubela phambili kwingqokelela engundoqo kaSolomon ( 10:1; 22:16 ), sinokuphawula ukuba inxalenye yesibini ( 16:1? 22:16 ) ubukhulu becala ibunjwa ngamaqhalo.

33. Iingqokelela eziNtathu ( 16:9?17:1 )
“UHLOBO: AB EMVELOPE SERIES….[La maqhalo] akuluhlu lwemvulophu ka-AB ephindwe kathathu, ngolu hlobo lulandelayo:
“Iindinyana eziphawulwe ngokuthi ‘A’ ( 16:9,20,33, 16, 19,32 ) zonke zithetha ngolungiselelo lobuthixo kwimicimbi yoluntu. Umba okwezi ndinyana bubulumko kwindlela yokwenza izigqibo. Enoba ubani wenza izicwangciso ezineenkcukacha okanye ubhenela ekwenzeni amaqashiso, iziganeko neemeko zonke zilawulwa nguThixo. Ngoko ke izilumko zilumkile kodwa ngaphezu kwako konke zibeka ukholo lwazo kuThixo kungekhona kwiingcinga zabantu .... Iindinyana eziphawulwe ngokuthi ‘B’ ( 17:1, 15; 1:16 ) zonke zibonisa ukuba isimo sengqondo soxolo senza ukuba isikhundla esibonakala siphantsi okanye esingenabundlongondlongo sikhetheke kunesinegunya. Zonke zithetha 'zingcono'. Misela kumxholo kunye namazwi 'A', ezi zibhalo zibonisa ukuba impumelelo ayinyanzelekanga ukuba ilinganiswe ngobungakanani beakhawunti yebhanki yomntu. Iindinyana ezingenelelayo kwisicatshulwa I no-II azihambelani enye kwenye (ngokungafaniyo ne-8:XNUMX?XNUMX:XNUMX), kodwa amaqela amaninzi ahlukeneyo…ayabonakala kwezi ngqokelela. Ingqokelela ye-III ayinazo iivesi zokungenelela konke konke” (NAC).

Indinyana 10-15 “zithetha ngobulungisa eburhulumenteni yaye zilungelelaniswe njengengqokelela yemixholo. Kwakhona igama elithi ‘ukumkani’ livela kuzo zonke iindinyana ngaphandle kweye-11, nangona kunjalo ethetha ngokucacileyo ngobulungisa kurhulumente” ( phawula kwiindinyana 10-15 ).

Amanqaku oMchazi kwindinyana ye-10: “Lo wokuqala ufundisa ukuba ookumkani mabathethe ngobulungisa benegunya…. Inxalenye yokuqala ithi xa ukumkani ethetha ngokusemthethweni, kuba ngathi 'sisihlabo' [NIV]. Igama elithi qesem lisetyenziswa kuyo yonke iBhayibhile ngengqiqo engeyiyo 'yokuvumisa' [njengoko i-NKJV iyibeka apha]; apha kubonakala nje ukuba lithetha amazwi akhe aphuma kwisivakalisi, ngokungathi uthetha ngoThixo (bona iNumeri 22:7; 23:23…). Isiphumo soku kukuba umlomo wakhe ‘awufanele ukungcatsha’…ubulungisa.”

Ngokuphathelele IMizekeliso 16:11 , ekhankanywe ngasentla njengekuphela kwesaci esikwindinyana 10-15 esingaqukiyo igama elithi “kumkani,” uSocino uthi: “Le ndinyana ayiqondwa kakuhle ngabahlalutyi bale mihla abathi ibhekisela kwimilinganiselo nemilinganiselo enyanisekileyo. [njengakwi-11:1]. Ukuba itolikwa ngolo hlobo, ayifaneleki yaye ayinxulumenanga neqela elithetha ngombandela weembopheleleko zokumkani, yaye kufanele kukhethwe amagqabaza angamaYuda awayenxulumanisa le ndinyana nemvelaphi yobuThixo yobulungisa. [Ibinzana] isikali esisesikweni nesikali [yinguqulelo] engenakwenzeka, ekubeni i<em>tsedek [elungileyo okanye esesikweni] yayiya kusetyenziswa endaweni ye<em>mishpat [umgwebo] ukuba intsingiselo yayibulungelelwano nje (cf. Lev. [19:]36 . . Inguqulelo echanileyo yile: ‘isikali nesikali sobulungisa sesikaYehova,’ oko kukuthi, asiyonto inokwenziwa ngukumkani ngamnye ukuze ilungele yena. Bamiselwe nguThixo kwaye banikelwe kookumkani ukuba balawule ngokufanelekileyo…. Amatye engxoweni, amatye okulinganisa, nezikali ngokwezikali, mawenziwe nguThixo; ukumkani akababoneleli abakhe” ( phawula kwiMizekeliso 16:11 ).

‘Imvula yasekwindla’ kwindinyana 15 ibhekisela kwimvula yasentwasahlobo yakwaSirayeli. “Imvula yasentwasahlobo yayiyimfuneko ekukhuleni ngokupheleleyo kwerhasi nengqolowa; ngoko ke yayingumqondiso wezinto ezilungileyo ezizayo. Cf. ‘umbethe’ we-19:12” ( Zondervan NIV Study Bible, nqaku nge-16:15).

Indinyana ye-18 ibonisa ukuba ikratshi nokuzigwagwisa yinto yokwexeshana. Oku kufanele kube lukhuthazo nakuba kubonakala ngathi bayaphumelela abo banekratshi. Kodwa ikwathethwa njengesilumkiso kuthi ngokuchasene nokuziphakamisa (thelekisa eyoku-1 kwabaseKorinte 10:12).

Indinyana 21 ithi “ubumnandi bemilebe bongeza imfundiso.” Ubumnandi obulapha buhambelana nevesi yama-24: “Amazwi amnandi anjengenqatha lobusi…” Ingongoma yendinyana yama-21 kukuba umntu osisilumko uya kukhetha ngocoselelo ulwimi olunomtsalane ekufundiseni abanye ukuze akhuthaze ukufunda (jonga kwakhona ivesi 23).

Ivesi 25 iphinda 14:12. Asinakuhamba nje ngento ebonakala ilungile. Simele siphulaphule oko uThixo akuthethayo. Apha "silandela imizekeliso yokufundisa, eli lizwi likwachaza imfuno yethu yengongoma yangaphandle yesalathiso apho sibeka khona indlela yethu" (NIV Application Commentary, phawula kwi-16: 25).

“Indinyana yama-27-30 ichaza indoda enamacebo amabi nobunye obuyintloko. Indinyana yama-27-29 iphathelele ubuqhophololo bomntu okhohlakeleyo, umntu ogwenxa, nomntu onogonyamelo, yaye indinyana yama-30 ingumqukumbelo okanye ingcaciso yezo nkcazelo zintathu. Iliso eliqhwanyazayo nemilebe etsolisiweyo yevesi 30 isenokuthatyathwa njengemiqondiso phakathi kwabenzi bobubi okanye njengengxelo eqhelekileyo yokuguquguquka kobuso babantu abangamaqili” ( New American Commentary, inqaku elikwindinyana 27-30 )? iimpawu ezinobuhlobo kodwa ezikhohlisayo; mhlawumbi ziluhlobo oluthile lwesihendo esikhankanywe kwindinyana 29” ( NIV Application Commentary, phawula kwindinyana 30 ).

Kwindinyana yama-32, ukuzeyisa, njengokulawula umsindo kabani, yimpumelelo enkulu kunoloyiso lwangaphandle.
“Iqashiso” elikwindinyana 33 bacingelwa ngabanye libhekisela ekusetyenzisweni kweUrim neTumim ngumbingeleli omkhulu. Ukanti mhlawumbi ibhekisela ekwenzeni amaqashiso ngengqiqo eqhelekileyo ngakumbi, nesibongozo esenziwa kuThixo sokuba amisele umphumo. I<em>The Zondervan NIV Study Bible igqabaza isithi: “Apha kusenokwenzeka ukuba iqashiso yayiziingqalutye eziliqela ezazibanjelwe emphethweni wesambatho zize zitsalwe okanye zishukunyiswe phantsi. Yayidla ngokusetyenziselwa ukwenza izigqibo” ( phawula kwindinyana 33 ). Abafundi bakaYesu basebenzisa ukwenza amaqashiso ukwenza isigqibo esibalulekileyo phambi kokuthululwa koMoya oyiNgcwele (bona iZenzo 1:26).

Izenzo 10-12

Ufundisiso lwethu lweZenzo kule veki luqhubela phambili kanye emva koko abaninzi bebenokukubiza ngokuba “kukusasazwa kweendaba ezilungileyo” kuwo wonke umhlaba, apho uPawulos waqala watshutshisa amakholwa kangangokuba achithachitheka ukuze akhuseleke. Emva koko siye safumanisa ukuba uPawulos waguquka ngokumangalisayo xa wadibana noMesiya endleleni eya eDamasko zaza iindaba ezilungileyo zasasazeka ngakumbi kuMbindi Mpuma nakwimimandla eyingqongileyo yeYerusalem nelakwaYuda phakathi kwesizwe sakwaYuda. Ngoku, kule nxalenye yeZenzo, sinobungqina baLowo Ungcwele ngokwaKhe, exelela abafundi bakhe, ukuba iindaba ezilungileyo zezabantu bonke, kwaye siqala ngephupha likaPetros kunye noKorneli – umTaliyane (iNtlanga).

UKorneli wayengumthetheli womkhosi owawubizwa ngokuba nguMkhosi wamaTaliyane ( 10:1 ) yaye wayehlala eKesareya. Nantsi into ebhaliweyo ethetha ngoKorneli “ezinikele, emoyika uThixo, yena nayo yonke indlu yakhe, esenza imisebenzi emininzi yenceba ebantwini, ekhunga kuElohim ngamaxesha onke.” Sinokumthelekisa lo uKorneli noKumkani wakwaSirayeli esisandul’ ukufunda ngaye ngasentla kuYeremiya 24—Indoda nganye kula madoda ‘yabaphatha njani abanye abantu’? Ngenxa yezenzo zikaKorneluis, uYesu wamtyelela embonweni waza wamxelela ukuba athumele amadoda eYafo aze abize indoda egama linguPetros (omnye wabafundi).

Ngelo xesha eYapho, uYehova wamenzela iphupha uPetros. Wabona izulu livulekile, nesitya esithile, sinjengeshiti elikhulu, libotshelelwe ezimbombeni zone, sisihla sisiya kuye, sithotywa emhlabeni. Elafini kwakukho zonke iindidi zamarhamncwa, nezeendle, nezinambuzane, neentaka. UYehova wathi kuPetros: “Vuka, Petros, xhela udle.” (10:13) UPetros ucinga ukuba oku kuphathelele ukutya njengoko esithi “Hayi, Nkosi! Andizange ndiyidle into eyinqambi okanye eyinqambi. Wandula ke uPetros axelelwe ukuba oko uThixo akuhlambululeyo, akafanele akugqale njengenqambi. Oku kwenzeka izihlandlo ezithathu, yaye uPetros wasondela waza waqhubeka engekaqondi ukuba uthetha ukuthini na loo mbono. Kwaza kwaoko amadoda athunywe nguKorneli alandela, abuza kuPetros. UPetros uxelelwa ukuba angazikhathazi aze ahambe nala madoda, ukuba ayethunywe nguThixo aze “asukume ahambe” ( 10:20 ).

UPetros uhlalisa amadoda akwaKorneli yaye ngengomso ubuyela nawo eKesareya apho uKorneli ewalindile nendlu yakhe yonke (kuba babebaninzi ababehlanganisene khona). Kungekudala sifunda ukuba uPetros uye wayiqonda intsingiselo yephupha lakhe xa esithi kwindinyana 28 “Niyazi ukuba umYuda akavumelekanga ukuba anxulumane okanye aye nakowolunye uhlanga. Ke yena uElohim undibonisile, ukuba ndingabizi mntu ngokuthi uyinqambi, ungongcolileyo. Yaye ngakumbi ngakumbi sifunda intsingiselo yombono okwindinyana 34-35 “Ndiyabona ke, ukuba uElohim akakhethi buso; kwiintlanga zonke, lowo umoyikayo, asebenze ubulungisa, wamkelekile kuye. Ngoko sibona NGOKUCACILEYO apha ukuba umbono kaPetros wawungenanto yakwenza nokuguqula iTorah yokutya okucocekileyo nokungacocekanga, njengoko kushunyayelwa kwibandla lobuKristu bale mihla.

UPetros uhlabela mgama enikela ubungqina kuKorneli nentsapho yakhe, ngako konke okwenzekayo ngokuphathelele uYoshuwa nangendlela Yena anguMesiya ovusiweyo ngayo, onyulwe nguElohim ukuba abe nguMgwebi wabaphilayo nabafileyo nabakholwayo kuye banokuxolelwa izono. Basuka ke uMoya wabawela phezu kwabo bonke, ababekho amaYuda namaGrike; baye bonke bedumisa uThixo ngeelwimi. UPetros namadoda angamaYuda awayekunye naye bakhwankqiswa yaye babona ukuba akukho mkhethe phakathi komYuda noweNtlanga baza bayalela ukuba uKorneli nentsapho yakhe babhaptizwe eGameni likaYoshuwa uMesiya ( 10:48 ).

Isahluko 11 Ibandla lamaYuda lamakholwa lakuva oku eYerusalem laza laqalisa ukusukuzana noPetros. Imbambano: “Ungene kumadoda angalukanga, wadla nawo!” (v 3) Ke siyabona apha ukuba umbandela kukunxibelelana kunye xa kusithiwa uhlambulukile kwaye omnye kuthiwe ungcolile. Olu lolunye "lweendonga zokwahlula" esiva ngazo kwiSibhalo phakathi kwamaYuda kunye neeNtlanga. Ngoko uPetros ubalisa ngombono wakhe, konke okwenzekayo, nendlela uMoya Oyingcwele owawela ngayo phezu kweeNtlanga kanye njengoko wehlela phezu kwamaYuda ngomhla wePentekoste! Emva koko wakhumbula amazwi kaYoshuwa xa wathi: “UYohane okunene wabhaptizwa emanzini, kodwa nina niya kubhaptizwa kuMoya oyiNgcwele.” Bathe ke bakukuva oko, bathi, Ngoko ke okunene uThixo uzinike iintlanga ukuguqukela ebomini. Zahamba ke iindaba ezilungileyo kulo lonke elaseFenike, naseSipro, nakwa-Antiyokwe, naseKirene. Kwanabanye bamaGrike bakholelwa. Sixelelwa ukuba uBharnabhus waya eTarso ukuya kufuna uPawulos (v11) yaye bafundisa kwibandla lakwa-Antiyokwe kangangonyaka. Abafundi bakwa-Antiyokwe babebizwa ngokuba “ngamaMesiya.” (v.16) Abanye abaprofeti beza bevela eYerusalem beza kwa-Antiyokwe yaye omnye ogama linguHagabhi weza waza waprofeta ngendlala eyayiza kulo lonke ihlabathi. Ke ngoko ibandla lakwa-Antiyokwe lathumela uncedo kwabakwelakwaYuda.

Isahluko 12. Esi sahluko siqala ngoHerode eqala ukutshutshisa amakholwa. Uqalisa ngokubulala uYakobi, umntakwabo Yohane namaYuda angakholwayo ayekholiswa koku yaye ngoko uHerode waqhubeka emvalela entolongweni uPetros. Oku kwakusenziwa ngexesha lezonka ezingenagwele nePasika. Ngelixa uPetros wayesentolongweni, iindimbane zamthandazela ngamandla aza Amandla kaThixo ngoMthunywa wakhe enzela uPetros ukubaleka entolongweni! UPetros uyavakalisa njengoko ephuma entolongweni (indima 11) “Ngoku ndiyazi ngokwenene ukuba ???? uthume umthunywa wakhe, wandihlangula esandleni sikaHerode, nakuba bonke abantu bakwaYuda babekhangele phambili. Kwakhona sixelelwa ‘ngexesha elimisiweyo’ laxa uHerode wathi wambatha ingubo yakhe yokwaleka waza wathetha nabantu nendlela abantu abalivakalisa ngayo “ilizwi lalowo unamandla, kungekhona elamntu! (v22) UHerode ke kwangaloo mazwi akabalungisanga; wambetha khona ke uThixo ngeempethu, wafa; ngokuba ebengamzukisanga uThixo.

Musani ukumisela umntu ophuma kubantu abangengabo amaSirayeli, ukuba abe ngumlawuli kwaSirayeli; “…Amnye kubazalwana bakho uze umise ukumkani phezu kwakho; uze ungamiseli ndoda yasemzini, ingengumzalwana wakho. ( Duteronomi 17:15 ) Imbali izaliswe ngabalawuli basemzini abaye bangena baza bathimba iintlanga ezingezizo ezabo—nto leyo eyaba nemiphumo eyintlekele; UNapoleon noHitler beza ngokukhawuleza engqondweni. UMgaqo-siseko waseMelika ngobulumko ulandela umgaqo weTorah, ofuna ukuba abongameli babo “bakhule ekhaya.” Kodwa njengoko unokulindela, kukho okungaphezulu koku kunefomula yokufumana ubunkokeli bexeshana obunovelwano. Ngummiselo wobungcwele besizwe.

Zimbini iindlela ‘zokuzimisela ukumkani. Unokumkhetha—ngonyulo, ngokumncoma, okanye ngokulandelelana okungachaswanga—okanye iimeko zakho ezimbi zinokumbeka etroneni ngaphandle kokuba ucele imvume yakho: akukho mntu kwaYuda owayefuna uNebhukadenetsare njengokumkani; wayelawula ngokungqongqo ngelungelo lokoyisa. UYehova wayenqwenela ukukhethwa “njengoKumkani” kaSirayeli, kodwa njengoko sibonile amaxesha ngamaxesha, uyala ukucutha ilungelo lethu lokukhetha ikamva lethu. Wawaxelela oku amaSirayeli awayesandul’ ukukhululwa: “Ukuba nithe naliphulaphula okunene ilizwi lam, nawugcina umnqophiso wam, noba yinqobo kum kwizizwe zonke; ngokuba lelam ihlabathi lonke. nibe bubukumkani bababingeleli kum, nohlanga olungcwele. ( Eksodus 19:5-6 ) Kamva wabaxelela oko kwakuya kufuneka ukuze baphulukane nelungelo lokuba noKumkani (bona iLevitikus 26 neDuteronomi 28 ). Ngokuqinisekileyo, kwinkulungwane elandelayo uSirayeli wenza yonke into awayeyalelwe ukuba angayenzi. Ngokwenjenjalo, ‘babeka phezu kwabo abasemzini, ababengengabo abazalwana.

Kakade ke, esona sizathu siyintloko salo myalelo sikukuba uMesiya othenjisiweyo wayeza kuba ngumSirayeli: “[Mna Yehova] ndiya kubavelisela umprofeti ephuma phakathi kwabazalwana babo [uhlanga lwakwaSirayeli] onjengawe [Moses] uwabeke amazwi am emlonyeni wakhe, athethe kubo [uYoshuwa] konke endiya kubawisela umthetho ngako. Kothi ke, kulowo uthe akaliva ilizwi lam, aya kulithetha egameni lam, mna ndiyibuze loo nto kuloo mntu. ( Duteronomi 18:18-19 ) Le mitzvah ayizange iphele negesi. USirayeli wayesele eza kujamelana nomesiya wobuxoki iZibhalo ezimchaza “njengerhamncwa laselwandle,” umzekeliso osixelela ukuba ungumntu weentlanga. Usenokuba umazi ngezinye izibizo zakhe, “umchasi-Kristu.” USirayeli ulumkisiwe, nangona kunjalo. Mabangakhethi mntu wasemzini njengokumkani wabo.

Ukumkani akayi kufumana maninzi kakhulu amahashe. “...Kodwa [ukumkani] makangazandiseli mahashe, angababuyiseli abantu eYiputa ukuze andise amahashe, ngokuba uYehova uthe kuni, Ize ningabi saphinda nibuye ngaloo ndlela.” ( Duteronomi 17:16 ) Ngoko ke, xa uYehova wathembisayo, uYehova wathi: “Nize ningabuyi nize nibuyele eYiputa.” ) Ekugqibeleni, akathethi ngamahashe kuphela, yaye akathethi ngeYiputa. Ihashe yayiyeyona nto ibalulekileyo kwizixhobo zomkhosi. Ukumkani owayevakalelwa kukuba ufuna amahashe amaninzi wayethembele kumandla omkhosi wakhe oxhobileyo ukuze akhusele ubukhosi bakhe—kungekhona ngoYehova. Ngoko ke, “amahashe andayo” luhlobo oluchuliweyo lokunqula izithixo.

Kwaye eYiputa? I-Egypt sisikweko esingokweZibhalo sehlabathi elalisenze amakhoboka ngaphambili ngaphambi kokuba sihlangulwe—indleko yako yayikukufa koNyana wamazibulo ngePasika (akufuneki ukuba ndiyicacise, akunjalo?). Elona xabiso liphezulu sele lihlawulwe ukusikhupha “kwingxaki yaseYiputa.” Into yokugqibela esifanele sicinge ngayo kukubuyela apho—ingakumbi ukuba ukubuyela kwethu ebukhobokeni akusosizathu singcono kunokuba singamthembi uYehova ngokhuseleko lwethu.

Izifundo zicacile kwaye zisebenza kumntu ngamnye, kodwa kufuneka siqonde ukuba uYehova uthetha ngokumkani apha-oko kukuthi, ubunkokeli esizikhethela bona. Ithetha ngentshukumisa yethu yokukhetha lowo sifuna asikhokele. Ngaba ngokwenene bayamthemba uYahweh, okanye ngaba bathetha nje ngokukhawuleza abanikela inkonzo yomlomo kuThixo ngoxa bephumeza izicombululo zehlabathi kwiingxaki zabo bababalayo?

Ngoku ndibhala la mazwi, ndisandula ukwaziswa ngokusweleka kukaMfundisi uJerry Falwell, nothe wazama ubuncinane ukunika abavoti baseMelika abaza kuzukisa uThixo. “IMoral Majority” awayisekayo yayisisiqalo, ndiyaqikelela. Kodwa yakhawuleza yangena kwingqondo edumileyo kwinxaki yembono yezopolitiko engqongqo kunye nobuKristu bamaProtestanti obufundamentali. Ngelixa kukho iindawo ezincomekayo zokuhlangana, ndingakhawulezisa ukucacisa ukuba aziyonto ikude, kwaye abezopolitiko abagcinayo ngokuzenzekelayo ngaba ngabahlobo bakaYahweh. (“AmaKristu” nawo akanyanzelekanga, kodwa masingangeni apho. Unokuba ngumhlobo njani wesithixo Owazi igama lakhe kodwa ungafuni ukulisebenzisa nemiyalelo kabani ongayihoyiyo okanye uyinyelise?) Umbandela wokuqhomfa uye waba ngumbandela ukuthambeka emtyibilizi kakhulu kumaKristu xa besiya kuvoto. Umgqatswa oqhatha umfazi wakhe (okanye umyeni wakhe), osebenzisa kakubi iziyobisi okanye utywala, ulala ngamazinyo ukuze ancede, akanakubanjwa efile endlwini yonqulo ngaphandle kokuba kukho inkunzi yezopolitiko ekufuneka yenziwe, kwaye ngokubanzi Ukuthanda "ukwandisa amahashe aphuma eYiputa" ukuba sithetha, nangona kunjalo, sinokuthembela ekufumaneni ivoti yobuKristu bobufundamentali ukuba uphuma esidlangalaleni ngokuchasene nokuqhomfa. Zihlobo zam, kulungile ukuvotela “akukho nanye kwezingasentla.” UYehova akanguye uThixo weyona nxalenye iphantsi okanye unguThixo wobubi obubini obuncinane.

(585)
Ukumkani makangathabathi baninzi abafazi; “...Makangazandiseli [ukumkani] bafazi, hleze ityeke intliziyo yakhe.” ( Duteronomi 17:17 ) Sisekwisicatshulwa apho uYahweh achaza isimo sengqondo esifanelekileyo sokumkani. Kwiinkalo ezintathu (izixhobo, abafazi, nobutyebi) ukumkani uyalelwa ukuba abe ngcathu, yaye kwimeko nganye kunxulunyaniswa nezizathu: ukumkani ufanele athembele ngoYehova, akholose Yena yedwa, aze akhokele abantu bakhe ekumnquleni. Yonke imigibe apho iTorah ilumkisa ngayo, ngokuqinisekileyo, idla ngokuhamba nommandla wokuba ngukumkani: unguMlawuli oyiNtloko kwimikhosi exhobileyo yesizwe sakhe, kwinqanaba elithile ungoyena mntu unomtsalane edolophini, kwaye irhafu nonikelo luhamba ngendlela yakhe ngokwendalo. UYehova uyamlumkisa ukuba angazivumeli ezi zinto zijike intloko yakhe. Asukele uYehova yedwa.

Emva phayaa kwiGenesis 2, saxelelwa ukuba uThixo wanika uAdam umfazi (isinye) ukuba abe “ngumncedi osweleyo (othelekisekayo, ofanelekileyo, okanye ophambi kwakhe).” Ukujonga oku kumbono we-logistics elula, umfazi omnye unokuzalisekisa le ndima, kodwa abafazi abaninzi babengenakukwazi. Okukhona indoda inabafazi abaninzi, kokukhona “uncedo” oluncinane (njengoko luchazwa ngokuswela) yayiya kulufumana ngokwenene. Ngoko ke, kwakutheni ukuze indoda ifune abafazi abalishumi esikhundleni somnye, nokuba ingukumkani yaye ikwazi ukunyamekela indlu yabafazi? Ewe, kukho okucacileyo (duh): ithemba lokwabelana ngesondo ngakumbi. Kodwa kwanale ngqiqo iyaqhekeka ukuba ujongana nengqondo yomntu: endaweni yokuba nobudlelwane obusondeleyo kunye nomfazi omnye ozaliseke ngokwesondo njengaye, umlawuli wesithembu unakho konke (ngalo naluphi na usuku) umfazi owanelisekileyo kunye nabanye abasithoba. abavutha ngumsindo nengqumbo. Leyo asiyondlela yokwaneliseka—kuyo nayiphi na kubo.

Kodwa kukho esinye isizathu sokuba ukumkani ‘andise abafazi. Imitshato yasebukhosini yayiyeyona ndlela ibalulekileyo yokudibanisa iimfuno zesinye isizwe nesinye. Inkosi yesizwe X ayinakwenzeka ukuba ihlasele u-Y ukuba intombi yakhe yendela kwinkosi yelo lizwe, akunjalo? Kodwa kwakhona, sikhunjuzwa apha ngemeko eyodwa yolwakhiwo lwezopolitiko lukaSirayeli njengoko uYehova wayelucelile: babeza kwahlulwa kwizizwe ezibajikelezileyo—babekelwe umsebenzi wokuba ngumjelo wosindiso lukaThixo ehlabathini. Babeza kuba ngabahlobo bakaYehova kungekhona omnye umntu. Iqhina lomtshato nabamelwane bawo lalinokufeza kuphela (okanye lungcolise) ulwalamano lukaSirayeli noThixo wawo.

(586)
17 Akayi kuqwebela intywenka yegolide nasilivere. “...Akasayi kuzandisela kakhulu [ukumkani] isilivere negolide.” ( Duteronomi 17:6 ) Ikwayingoma enye, indinyana yesithathu. Ubutyebi (nangona buqukuqela ngokwemvelo kukumkani) ayisiyonto ibanjwa kwaye ifunjwe. Kunoko, yindlela ukumkani anokubasikelela ngayo abantu bakhe. UKumkani uDavide wayephumelele gqitha kangangokuba wazibona sele equbha ekuphangeni. Kodwa ekuphela kwento awayeyifuna ngokwenene kukwakha itempile ezukisa uYehova. Ungawahoyi loo magama mabini okugqibela kwisicatshulwa sethu: “…kukwakhe.” Ukusikelelwa ngokwezinto eziphathekayo akusosono—ukuba ngukumkani okanye akunjalo. Kodwa ngaphaya kweemfuno esizifumanayo sonke (uThixo azi kakuhle—bona uMateyu 19:34-XNUMX) imali ayilungiselelwanga thina, ukwanelisa, ulonwabo, okanye ukuzingca kwethu. Ikho ukuze simzukise ngayo uThixo, nokuba kungokwanelisa iintswelo zenyama zabo bangathathi ntweni, okanye ngokuzabalazela iindaba ezilungileyo. Ewe, uDavide wazakhela indlu entle ukuba ahlale kuyo. Kodwa isixa semali yakhe sasisiya etempileni. Kulapho intliziyo yakhe yayikhona.

Kwingxelo eqhelekileyo, uYahshua wabonisa indlela ekufanele ibe ngayo indlela esicinga ngayo ngemali: “Zijonge ithuba lazo, iinkokeli zathumela amagcisa azenza abantu abanyanisekileyo. Bazama ukuba uYesu athethe into eyayinokuxelwa kwirhuluneli yaseRoma ukuze ibambe uYesu. Bathi ke bona kuye, Mfundisi, siyazi ukuba wena uthetha ufundise ngobulungisa, ungaphenduki ke kwizinto zabanye. Ufundisa iindlela zikaThixo ngokunyanisekileyo. Khawusixelele—ngaba kulungile ukuhlawula irhafu kurhulumente waseRoma okanye akunjalo?' Ebubonile ke ubuqhophololo bazo, wathi, Ndiboniseni idenariyo. Ngumfanekiso nesihloko sikabani esigximfizwe kuyo?' 'NgokaKesare,' baphendula bathi. Wathi ke yena, Ngoko ke, mnikeni uKesare izinto zakhe; Kodwa yonke into ekaThixo imele inikelwe kuThixo.' Ngoko abakwazanga ukumbambisa phambi kwabantu. Kunoko, bamangaliswa yimpendulo yakhe, baza bathi cwaka.” ( Luka 20:20-26 ) U-Yahshua akazange athabatheke bubugorha bamaRoma okanye ubutyebi bomlawuli wayo. Yena, emva koko, “wayenguNyana okuphela kwamzeleyo” kaThixo owathi (njengoko sibonile ngasentla) wathi, “Ukuba nithe naliphulaphula okunene izwi lam, nawugcina umnqophiso wam, noba yinqobo kum ngaphezu kwezizwe zonke; ngokuba lelam ihlabathi lonke. ( Eksodus 19:5 ) UYehova ungumnikazi wehlabathi lonke, ukanti into ayixabisileyo sithi—ukuba siyamxabisa.

Ukuzonwabisa nje, ndajonga i-bill ye-dollar yaseMelika kunye nengqondo efanayo uYahshua wenza ngayo ngemali yaseRoma. Ibinzana elithi “Sikholose ngoThixo” lisakho, nto leyo ubani anokucinga ukuba iya kuwuthabatha lula lo msebenzi. Kodwa iphakamisa lo mbuzo: ngubani lo Thixo thina siluhlanga esikholose ngaye? "Oothixo" bethu besizwe batyhilwa yeminye "imifanekiso kunye nemifuziselo" eshicilelwe kwibhili. Okokuqala, kunjalo, kukho ubuso obunoncumo lukaBen Franklin. Abantu baseMelika bayamthanda. Wayenobuchule bokusungula izinto, esikrelekrele, esikrelekrele yaye esenza izinto ngendlela esebenzisekayo, owaqala njengomphambukeli ongenamali kodwa ngobuchule nangokusebenza nzima waba ngomnye ‘wamadoda amakhulu’ omhla wakhe. Wayekwangumbutho wezopolitiko obhinqileyo owayedlala kwi-sycophants ye-salon yaseParis, umntu owayekwazi kwaye ebambe inzondo yakhe amashumi eminyaka. UFranklin wayengengomKristu, kodwa wayengumntu (okanye ubuncinci yindlela awayezichaza ngayo). Wayecatshukiswa yaye ecatshukiswa luhanahaniso lonqulo lwabantu awayedibana nabo ababezibiza ngokuba bangamaKristu. (Enyanisweni, andinakutsho ukuba andivumelani naye apho).

Amaxesha alishumi elinanye ibhili ibhengeza ukuba ixabisa ikhulu leedola, kodwa ndiyakuqinisekisa, akunjalo. Ndikhumbula ixesha laxa ikhulu leedola lalidla ngokutshisa inqwelo-mafutha yakho, likhuphe umfazi wakho liye kwisidlo sangokuhlwa esimnandi, lihlawule umgcini wabantwana, lize likushiye nento eseleyo. Ngoku ukhethe phakathi kwezo zikhetho. Kwaye kutheni kunje? Oko kuprintwe kwibhili ngokunjalo: ayisiyiyo imali, exhaswa ngegolide okanye isilivere kwigumbi elingaphantsi kwenye indawo. Hayi, yi “Federal Reserve Note,” eyimali ehlekisayo edityaniswe ematyaleni nakwinkohliso yinkampani yabucala yebhanki—iFederal Reserve System—eyathi ilizwe lethu ngobudenge lathengisa kuyo umphefumlo walo wemali emva ngowe-1913. ngumfanekiso wendlela i-Independence Hall eyayidla ngokukhangeleka ngayo. Thina maMelika sikholisa ukunqula imbali yethu kunye nelifa lemveli, nokuba lelokwenyani okanye hayi. Ukuzimela kwethu, kwakhona, yinkohliso eyimbali kunenyani yangoku.

Kwaye kuyo yonke ibhili, uyakubona iindlela zomgunyathi-umkrolo ontsonkothileyo, iphepha elikhethekileyo leragi, i-microprinting, ii-watermark, kunye nobunye ubucukubhede obuchasa ukuveliswa komntwana-kuba thina bantu baseMelika sithe phithi nguthixo wobuxoki obizwa ngokhuseleko. Ukuba ndingakhe ndiphendule ingcamango ethile kwiNdumiso 127:1 , “Ukuba uYehova akayiphathi kakuhle imali, Bafumana befumana beyizuza; ngaphandle kokuba uYahweh uyaligcina ingxowa-mali, usihlalo weFederal Reserve Board uhlala ephaphile ilize.”

Ukumkani uya kuzibhalela incwadi esongwayo yomthetho, nangaphezu kwaleyo aya kuthi elowo ayibhale, ayibhale imisongo emibini. Wothi, xenikweni athe wahlala etroneni yobukumkani bakhe, azibhalele impinda yombhalo yalo myalelo encwadini, ephuma kweyababingeleli, abaLevi. ( Duteronomi 17:18 ) Ukumkani wayeza kukhuphela umsongo omnye, kungekhona emibini ukuze ayisebenzise. UMaimonides udibanisa impazamo ayenzileyo emva kwiMitzvah #16. Apho wathi umSirayeli ngamnye makabhale umbhalo weTorah. Noko ke, njengoko isibhalo ( Duteronomi 31:19 ) sibonisa, yayinguMoses noYoshuwa kuphela ababemele babhale oko kwakushunyayelwa nguMoses. Kodwa ewe, ukumkani (lakufika ixesha lokuba uSirayeli abe nayo) wayalelwa ukuba azibhalele umbhalo weTorah. Ababingeleli babeza kuba ngabagcini bomgangatho, umbhalo-ngqangi wokuqala. Phofu ke, phawula ukuba akukho nto yathethwayo “ngomthetho odluliselwe ngomlomo” abathi oorabhi bamva bawuqiqisa ukuze baxhase ukugqwethwa kwabo kwiTorah ebhaliweyo. Ukumkani akazange anikwe myalelo ngayo kuba yayingekho.

UMaimonides ubonakala ebambelele kwinani leekopi awayeza kuzenza ukumkani. UYahweh, ngokwahlukileyo koko, unika izizathu Zakhe zokufuna lo msebenzi kakumkani (into eyayidla ngokwenziwa ngumdubuli oyingcali, okanye umbhali). “Yoba ngakuye, ayilese yonke imihla yobomi bakhe, ukuze afunde ukumoyika uYehova uThixo wakhe, agcine ukuwenza onke amazwi alo myalelo nale mimiselo, ukuze ingakhathali intliziyo yakhe. Ubaphakamisele phezulu kubazalwana bakhe, ukuze angatyeki emyalelweni, aye ekunene nasekhohlo, ukuze ayolule imihla yakhe ebukumkanini bakhe, yena noonyana bakhe phakathi kwamaSirayeli. ( Duteronomi 17:19-20 ) UMsongo kakumkani weTorah wawuza kuba liqabane lakhe elihlala lihleli, umkhokeli ekuthethwa ngaye ngokufuthi, uMqulu woMnini wobomi nolawulo lwakhe. Yayiza kumgcina ukumkani endleleni awayemmisele ngayo uYehova, ingenelwe kuhlanga luphela, ibe yayiza kumthintela ekubeni nekratshi nokukhukhumala—kumkhumbuza ukuba ukumkani wakhe nguYehova.

Asinabo ubungqina obungokwembali bokuba nawuphi na ukumkani wakwaSirayeli wakha wawugcina lo myalelo, nangona omnye, uYosiya, wayebuhlungu gqitha kukungaphumeleli kukaYuda xa uMthetho waphinda wafunyanwa ebudeni bolawulo lwakhe kangangokuba wazikrazula iingubo zakhe ezilile waza wabakhokelela abantu bakhe enguqukweni yesizwe (bona. IIKronike 34:14-33). Yaye uKumkani uDavide wayephila ubomi obo, ubuncinane ngamaxesha athile, obubonisa ukuthobela kwakhe kulo mbandela. Nangona engadweliswanga njengombhali weNdumiso 119 , sonke isahluko sithetha ngokuyoliswa yiTorah okunokuziswa kukuqhelana ngokusondeleyo kuphela. Ezinye zibalaselisa: “Hayi, uyolo lwabandlela igqibeleleyo, bona bahambayo ngomyalelo kaYehova! …Ndiyibeke intetho yakho entliziyweni yam, ukuze ndingoni kuwe…. Ndiyinyule indlela yenyaniso; Amasiko akho ndibeke phambi kwam.... Iziingoma kum imimiselo yakho endlwini yokuphambukela kwam. Ulungile kum umyalelo womlomo wakho ngaphezu kwamawaka egolide nesilivere.... Andiyi kuzilibala naphakade iziyalezo zakho, Ngokuba undidlise ubomi ngazo.... Indifundisa ubulumko ngaphezu kweentshaba zam imithetho yakho, Ngokuba yeyam ngonaphakade. Lisisibane seenyawo zam ilizwi lakho, Likukukhanya emendweni wam. ( INdumiso 119:1, 11, 30, 54, 72, 93, 98, 105 )

AMANAZIRI

Ozahluleleyo akayi kusela wayini, okanye nayiphi na into ephithikezwe newayini enencasa; kwanokuba ithe wamuncu iwayini okanye umxube, woba muncu kuye. Xa ithe indoda nokuba yinkazana, xa ithe yawumisela umsondezo, ukuba ube nesibhambathiso sozahlulelo, ukuba azahlulele kuYehova, makahlukane newayini, nakwisiselo esinxilisayo; Makangaseli viniga ngewayini, naviniga enziwe ngesiselo esilolo hlobo; angaseli nancindi yeediliya, angadli zidiliya zisanda diliya nazirasentyisi. ( Numeri 6:2-3 ) Isibhambathiso somNaziri lolona hlobo lokuzahlulela lusulungekileyo oluchazwe kwiTorah olunokufumaneka kuye nawuphi na umSirayeli—oko kukuthi, lowo ungengombingeleli okanye umLevi (othe ‘ukungcwaliswa’ kwakhe kwanikelwa kuye. ngokuzalelwa kwisizwe okanye kusapho oluthile kwaSirayeli). Njengoko siza kubona, isibhambathiso somNaziri sifuzisela ubomi bomntu okholwayo, umntwana kaThixo—ubomi bokuzithandela, obunenjongo, obunenjongo yokuzahlula kuYehova. Yiyeke kuMaimonides ukuba afunxe bonke ubomi kuyo ngokuyinciphisa ibe kuludwe lwemithetho. Le mitzvah kunye neziko ezine ezilandelayo malunga nokuphepha nantoni na ekhuliswe kumdiliya. Kukwakho nezithintelo ezichasene nokucheba iinwele kunye nokuchukumisa isidumbu, esiya kuthi sisombulule ngexesha elifanelekileyo. Kodwa okokuqala, kufuneka sihlolisise isifungo ngokwaso, injongo yaso kunye nokubaluleka.

Igama esiliguqulela ngokuthi “umNaziri” sisibizo sesiHebhere esithi nazir. Lithatyathwe kwisenzi esithi nazar, esithetha “ukwahlula.” Kuxhomekeka ekubeni sidityaniswe nasiphi na isiqalelo, sisenokuthetha “ukuzigcina kude nento,” “ukuzikhwebula kwinto ethile,” okanye “ukwahlulelwa kwinto ethile.” Ngoko ke, umNaziri ngumntu owahluliweyo ehlabathini aze angcwaliswe kuYehova, nto leyo eluphawu lokuzikhwebula kwakhe kwiindawo ezininzi ezichazwe kakuhle. Ngaphandle nje kwecandelo lokuzikhwebula, kufana ncam nengcamango yokuba qodesh, okanye “ngcwele,” (ngokoqobo, ukubekelwa bucala) igama ekwakufanele ukuba lichaza lonke uhlanga lwakwaSirayeli. Umntu ngokuqhelekileyo wayeba ngumNaziri ngokwenza isibhambathiso sokuzahlulela ngokuzithandela kuYehova kangangexesha elithile nelilinganiselweyo, emva koko ubomi bakhe obuqhelekileyo babuqalisa kwakhona. Kodwa kukho ubuncinane izihlandlo ezithathu eZibhalweni apho umNaziri wayengcwaliswa ubomi bakhe bonke esibelekweni sikanina: uSamson, uSamuweli noYohane uMbhaptizi.

Le yayingeyiyo imonki. UmNaziri akazange arhoxe eluntwini, avalele iingcango ezitshixwayo ukuze azikhusele kwimpembelelo yehlabathi. Yaye imiqondiso yomNaziri yayingeyonguquko eyayifanele yenziwe ngelinge lokuzisondeza kuThixo. Kwakungeyontloni ukungenzi isibhambathiso sobuNaziri, yaye kwakungalungiselelwanga ukunika umnquli nasiphi na isikhundla esikhethekileyo sonqulo okanye igunya ekuhlaleni (nangona bobabini uSamson noSamuweli babengabagwebi bakwaSirayeli, yaye uYohane uMbhaptizi wayengowokugqibela nolona lungelo likhulu. umprofeti wexesha loMnqophiso oDala). Ngokuqhelekileyo, umNaziri wayeqhubeka nomsebenzi wakhe wemihla ngemihla, ngaphandle kokuba oko kungqubana nesibhambathiso sakhe. (Ngokomzekelo, ijoni lisenokucelwa ukuba libulale utshaba, lize umngcwabi alungise izidumbu ukuze zingcwatywe, nto leyo eyayinokwenza kube nzima ukugcina isibhambathiso nomsebenzi ngaxeshanye.)

Qaphela umahluko kwisicatshulwa: “azahlule kuYehova” endaweni “ezahlule ewayinini….” Into efanekiselwayo kukuqonda, okunenjongo, ukudluliselwa kobudlelwane ukusuka kwenye into ukuya kwenye. Xa ukqala krwada, kungakhangeleka ngathi ukuzikhwebula okumiselweyo kwisiqhamo somdiliya yimfuneko nje yokuthotywa. Nangona oko kuqukiwe (ibinzana eliguqulelwe ngokuthi “isiselo esifanayo” lithi sekar—“isiselo esinxilisayo” okanye utywala obunokwenza ubani anxile), ubani akanakuntywila ngokurhabula iirasintyisi. Kukho okungakumbi kuyo. Funda kwi….

Maze angadli iidiliya ezintsha; “Kwaye akasayi kudla iidiliya ezintsha.” ( Numeri 6:3 ) Andikhathali nokuba zininzi kangakanani na iidiliya ozidlayo; abayi kukwenza tipsy. Kufuneka sijonge oku xa sijonga umahluko phakathi “kokwahlulelwa” kunye “nokwahlulwa.” Zifuzisela ntoni iidiliya? Xa iintlola ezilishumi elinambini zabuyayo kuhambo lwazo lokuya eKanan, zeza nesihloko seediliya esikhulu kangangokuba kwafuneka sithwale ngesibonda phakathi kwazo ezimbini. Kucacile ukuba isidiliya ababesigqogqe sasimi kakuhle—kuthabatha iminyaka emininzi yokusebenza nzima ukuvelisa isityalo esinjalo. Nantso ke ingongoma yesibhambathiso somNaziri: iidiliya zifanekisela ukuma kweli hlabathi, zibotshelelwe kulo, zifakwe kulo. Ngoku, asiyonto imbi leyo ngokwayo. Ilizwe ledinga lalisisipho esivela kuThixo, indawo elungileyo nenentabalala. Kodwa yayingengoThixo ngokwakhe. UmNaziri wayekhetha ukushiya okulungileyo ukuze athande abagqibeleleyo, ukuba kuphela ngokomfuziselo (kwaye okwethutyana). Wayesithi, “Ndingumhambi kweli lizwe—ikhaya lam lokwenene likuYehova.”
