Izinto ezi-7 obungazazi ngoYesu

Ngaba ucinga ukuba umazi kakuhle uYesu?

Kwezi zinto zisixhenxe, uya kufumanisa izinto ezithile ezingaqhelekanga ngoYesu ozifihlileyo kumaphepha ebhayibhile. Jonga ukuba kukho iindaba zakho.

1. UYesu wazalwa ngaphambi kwexesha kunokuba sasicinga
   Ikhalenda yethu yangoku, ekucingelwa ukuba yaqala ngexesha lokuzalwa kukaYesu Krestu (AD, anno domini, Latin for "in the year of our Lord") ayilunganga. Siyazi kubabhali-mbali baseRoma ukuba uKumkani uHerode wafa malunga ne-4 BC Kodwa uYesu wazalwa xa uHerode wayesaphila. Ngapha koko, uHerode wayalela onke amakhwenkwe eBhetelehem aneminyaka emibini nangaphantsi ukuba axhelwe ngenzame yokubulala uMesiya.

Nangona kuxoxiwe ngalo mhla, ukubalwa kwabantu okukhankanywe kuLuka 2: 2 kusenokwenzeka ukuba kwenzeka malunga nowama-6 BC. Ngokuthatha ezi kunye nezinye iinkcukacha, uYesu wazalwa phakathi kwe-6 ne-4 BC.

1. UYesu wawakhusela amaYuda ngexesha lokufuduka kwabo
   UBathathu Emnye uhlala esebenza kunye. Xa amaYuda abalekayo kuFaro, eneenkcukacha kwincwadi yeEksodus, uYesu wawaxhasa entlango. Le nyaniso ityhilwe ngumpostile uPawulos kweyoku-1 kwabaseKorinte 10: 3-4: “badla bonke oko kudla kunye kukokomoya, basela into enye nasemphefumlweni; kuba babesela kwiliwa lokomoya elalihamba nabo kwaye elo litye linguKrestu. (NIV)

Eli yayingelilo ixesha lokuthatha kukaYesu inxaxheba kwiTestamente eNdala. Ezinye iimbonakalo, okanye i-theophanies, zibhalwe eBhayibhileni.

1. UYesu wayengengomchweli nje
   UMarko 6: 3 ubiza uYesu ngokuthi “ngumchweli,” kodwa kusenokwenzeka ukuba wayenezakhono ezininzi zokwakha, ezikwazi ukusebenza ngomthi, amatye nesinyithi. Igama lesiGrike eliguqulelwe ukuba ngumchweli ngu "tekton", igama lakudala elisusela kwimbongi uHomer, ubuncinci ngo-700 BC

Ngelixa i-tekton kwasekuqaleni ibhekiswa kumsebenzi osebenza ngamaplanga, yanda ngokuhamba kwexesha ukuze ibandakanye nezinye izinto. Abanye abafundi beBhayibhile baphawula ukuba iinkuni zazinqabile ngexesha likaYesu kwaye uninzi lwezindlu lwalwenziwe ngamatye. Ehlonelwe nguyise womtshato uYosefu, kusenokwenzeka ukuba uYesu wahamba kulo lonke elaseGalili, esakha izindlu zesikhungu nezinye izakhiwo.

1. UYesu wathetha iilwimi ezintathu, mhlawumbi ezine
   Siyazi kwiincwadi zeVangeli ukuba uYesu wayethetha isiAramaic, ulwimi lwemihla ngemihla kwaSirayeli wakudala kuba amanye amagama akhe esiAramiki abhalwe kwiZibhalo. NjengomYuda ozinikeleyo, wayethetha isiHebhere, esasisetyenziswa kwimithandazo yasetempileni. Nangona kunjalo, izindlu ezininzi zesikhungu zazisebenzisa iSeptuagint, iZibhalo zesiHebhere eziguqulelwe kwisiGrike.

Xa wayethetha nabantu beeNtlanga, uYesu wayenokuthetha ngesiGrike, ulwimi oluthengisa eMiddle East ngelo xesha. Ngelixa singazi ngokuqinisekileyo, usenokuba wathetha nomphathi-khulu waseRoma ngesiLatini (Mateyu 8:13).

1. Mhlawumbi uYesu wayengekho mhle
   Akukho nkcazo emzimbeni kaYesu eBhayibhileni, kodwa umprofeti u-Isaya unika umkhondo obalulekileyo ngaye: "Wayengenabuhle okanye ubungangamsha ukusitsalela kuye, engenanto imbonakalo yakhe ukuba simnqwenele." (Isaya 53: 2b, NIV)

Kuba ubuKrestu babutshutshiswa yiRoma, imifanekiso yokuqala yamaKrestu ebonisa ukuba uYesu wabuyela emva phaya kwiminyaka ye-350 AD Imizobo ebonisa uYesu ngeenwele ezinde yayiqhelekile kumaXesha Aphakathi nakwiRenaissance, kodwa uPawulos wathi kweyoku-1 kwabaseKorinte 11:14 ukuba iinwele ezinde kwi amadoda "ebeneentloni".

UYesu wahlula-hlula koko wakuthethayo nawakwenzayo, hayi ngendlela awayebonakala ngayo.

1. UYesu unokumangaliswa
   Izihlandlo ezibini, uYesu wabonisa ukumangaliswa okukhulu ziziganeko. "Wothuswa" kukungathembani kwabantu kuye eNazarete nalapho akakwazanga ukwenza imimangaliso. (Marko 6: 5-6) Kwanokholo olukhulu lomthetheli-khulu waseRoma, weeNtlanga, lwammangalisa, njengoko kuchaziwe kuLuka 7: 9.

AmaKristu kudala axoxa malunga nabaseFilipi 2: 7. I-New American Standard Bible ithi uKrestu "waziqongqotha" ngokwakhe, ngelixa iinguqulelo ze-ESV kunye ne-NIV zithi uYesu "akenzanga nto yena." Impikiswano iyaqhubeka malunga nokuba ukupheliswa kwamandla kaThixo okanye i-kenosis kuthetha ntoni, kodwa sinokuqiniseka ukuba uYesu wayenguThixo ngokupheleleyo kwaye engumntu opheleleyo kwisimo sakhe somntu.

1. UYesu wayengekho vegan
   KwiTestamente eNdala, uThixo uBawo wamisela inkqubo yamadini ezilwanyana njengenxalenye yonqulo. Ngokuchasene nemithetho yezilwanyana zangoku ezingatyi nyama ngezizathu zokuziphatha, uThixo akabekanga miqobo enjalo kubalandeli bakhe. Nangona kunjalo, ibibonelela ngoluhlu lokutya okungcolileyo ekufuneka kuphetshwe, okufana nengulube, umvundla, izidalwa zasemanzini ezingenamaphiko okanye izikali, kunye namacikilishe nezinambuzane.

NjengomYuda othobelayo, uYesu wayeza kuyitya imvana yePasika eyayikhonzwa ngala mhla ungcwele ubalulekileyo. Iincwadi zeVangeli zikwaxela ukuba uYesu watya iintlanzi. Imida yokutya yasuswa kamva kumaKristu.
