Zeziphi izibakala zenzululwazi eziqulathwe yiBhayibhile ezibonisa ukuba ziyasebenza?
Zeziphi izibakala ezingokwenzululwazi eziqulathwe yiBhayibhile ezingqina ubunyaniso bazo? Luluphi ulwazi olutyhiliweyo olubonisa ukuba waphefumlelwa nguThixo kwiminyaka ngaphambi kokuba uluntu lwenzululwazi luzifumane?
Eli nqaku liphonononga iivesi zeBhayibhile, ngolwimi lwemihla yabo, ezenza ingxelo eyathi kamva yangqinwa ichanekile. La mabango abonisa ngokucacileyo ukuba ababhali bayo babephefumlelwe nguThixo ukuba babhale ulwazi malunga nehlabathi ukuba umntu uya kuthi, kamva, "afumanise" kwaye angqine ngenzululwazi ukuba iyinyani.
Inyani yethu yokuqala kwezenzululwazi eBhayibhileni ikwiGenesis. Ithi umkhukula kaNowa wadalwa ngaba balandelayo: “Ngale mini itshatyalalisiwe yonke imithombo yamanzi enzonzobila enkulu” (iGenesis 7:11, HBFV xa iyonke). Igama "imithombo" livela kwigama lesi-Mayan lesiHebhere (Strong's Concordance # H4599) elithetha imithombo, imithombo okanye imithombo yamanzi.
Kuthathe de kwaba ngu-1977 isayensi ukufumana imithombo yolwandle kude nonxweme lwe-Ecuador engqina ukuba loo manzi makhulu amanzi aqukethe imithombo yokutshiza ulwelo (jonga iJellyfish kunye neNkumba kaLewis Thomas).
Le mithombo okanye imithombo efumaneka elwandle, ekhupha amanzi kumaqondo angama-450, yafunyanwa yinzululwazi kwiminyaka engaphezulu kwama-3.300 XNUMX emva kokuba uMoses wangqina ngobukho bawo. Olu lwazi kwafuneka luvele kumntu omde kwaye omkhulu kunayo nayiphi na indoda. Kwakufuneka eze kwaye aphefumlelwe nguThixo!
Isixeko saseUre
UTera wathabatha unyana wakhe uAbraham noLote, unyana kaHaran, umzukulwana wakhe, noSarayi umolokazana wakhe, umfazi ka-Abraham unyana wakhe. Waphuma ke nabo eUre yamaKaledi. . . (IGenesis 11:31).
Kwixesha elidlulileyo, abagxeki bezenzululwazi babesoloko besithi ukuba iBhayibhile yinyani, sinokukwazi ukufumana isixeko samandulo saseUre apho uAbraham wayehlala khona. Abagxeki bathatha ixeshana labo de i-Uri yafunyanwa ngo-1854 AD! Kwafumaniseka ukuba isixeko sasikade silikomkhulu elichumileyo nesinamandla kunye neziko elibalulekileyo lezorhwebo. I-Uri ayibikho nje kuphela, ngaphandle koluntu lwenzululwazi yanamhlanje, ibiphucukile kwaye ihlelekile!
Imisinga yomoya
Incwadi yeNtshumayeli yabhalwa phakathi kwe-970 kunye ne-930 BC ngexesha lolawulo lukaSolomon. Inelibango elingahoywanga kodwa elisekwe kwinzululwazi malunga nomoya.
Umoya uya emazantsi, ubuye ubhekise ngasentla; ijika ngokuqhubekayo; Umoya ubuyela kwiisekethi zawo (INtshumayeli 1: 6).
Kwakunokwenzeka njani ukuba nabani na, kumawaka eminyaka eyadlulayo, ayazi ipateni yomoya womhlaba? Le modeli ayizange iqale ukuqondwa yisayensi kude kube sekuqaleni kwenkulungwane ye-XNUMX.
Qaphela ukuba INtshumayeli 1: 6 ithi umoya uya emazantsi ujike uye emantla. Umntu ufumanise ukuba imimoya yasemhlabeni ihamba ngendlela ejikelezayo kwi-hemisphere esemantla, ngoko ke ujika ujikeleze ujikeleze ujikeleze ixesha kwi-hemisphere esemazantsi!
USolomon wathi umoya uvuthuza rhoqo. Umntu onokuthi abukele emhlabeni angazi njani ukuba imimoya inokuhamba rhoqo kuba ulungelelwaniso lwenzeka kuphela kwiindawo eziphakamileyo? Le ngxelo malunga nemimoya yomhlaba yayingenangqondo kwabo babephila ngemihla kaSolomon. Inyaniso yayo ephefumlelweyo yenye yeBhayibhile ethe yangqinwa iyinyani yisayensi yale mihla.
Ubume bomhlaba
Umntu wokuqala wayecinga ukuba umhlaba usicaba njengepanekuku. Noko ke, iBhayibhile isixelela into eyahlukileyo. UThixo, owenze ukuba zonke iinyani zesayensi esizithathileyo zibekho, uthi ku-Isaya ukuba nguye ongoyena uphambili kwisazinge somhlaba!
Nguye ohleli phezu kwesangqa somhlaba kwaye abantu bakhe banjengeenkumbi (u-Isaya 40:22).
Incwadi ka-Isaya yabhalwa phakathi kuka-757 no-696 BC, nangona kunjalo ukuqonda ukuba umhlaba ungqukuva akuzange kubeyinyani eyamkelweyo ngokubanzi kude kube lixesha loKuhlaziya! Ukubhala kuka-Isaya kumhlaba osisetyhula, ngaphezulu kwamashumi amabini anesihlanu eminyaka eyadlulayo, kwakuchanekile!
Ubambe ntoni emhlabeni?
Abantu ababephila kwiminyaka emininzi eyadlulayo babekholelwa ukuba bawuxhasa njani umhlaba? Incwadi kaDonna Rosenberg "World Mythology" (uhlelo lowe-1994) ithi uninzi lwalukholelwa ukuba "uphumle emva kofudo". Incwadi ka Neil Philip ethi Myths and Legends ithi amaHindu, amaGrike nabanye bakholelwa ekubeni umhlaba "uthintelwe yindoda, indlovu, ikatfish okanye enye into".
U-Yobi yeyona ncwadi yebhayibhile indala ebhaliweyo, eyaqala malunga ne-1660 BC.Qaphela ukuba ithini malunga nendlela awathi ngayo uThixo "wawuxhoma" umhlaba xa wawudalayo, into eyayinokungangqinwa nayiphina inzululwazi ngomhla wakhe!
Inabisela emantla kwindawo engenanto kwaye ixhoma umhlaba ungabikho (Yobhi 26: 7).
Xa sijonga umhlaba ngokuchasene nemvelaphi yendalo iphela, ngaba ayibonakali ngathi imiswe nje esithubeni, ixhonywe kwinto engekhoyo? Umxhuzulane, leyo inzululwazi isiya kuyiqonda ngoku, ngamandla angabonakaliyo abambe umhlaba "uphezulu" emajukujukwini.
Ukugculela ukutyhubela imbali baye banyelisa ukuchana kweBhayibhile baza bayijonga njengenye nje yeengqokelela zeentsomi. Ngokuhamba kwexesha, nangona kunjalo, isayensi eyinyani iye yawangqina amabango ayo ukuba achanekile kwaye achanekile. Ilizwi likaThixo linokuthenjwa ngokupheleleyo kumxholo wonke elijongana nawo.
