Yisiphi isimangaliso sikaJesu esikhulu kunazo zonke?
UJesu, njengoNkulunkulu osenyameni, wayenamandla okwenza isimangaliso noma nini lapho kunesidingo. Wayenekhono lokuguqula amanzi abe yiwayini (uJohane 2: 1 - 11), enze inhlanzi ikhiqize uhlamvu lwemali (uMathewu 17:24 - 27), futhi wahamba phezu kwamanzi (Johane 6:18 - 21) . UJesu futhi wayengaphilisa labo ababeyizimpumputhe noma abayizithulu (Johane 9: 1 - 7, Marku 7:31 - 37), wafaka indlebe enqunyiwe (uLuka 22:50 - 51), futhi wakhulula abantu emadimonini amabi (Mathewu 17: 14 - 21). Yisiphi isimangaliso esikhulu kunazo zonke asenza?
Ngokusobala, isimangaliso esikhulu kunazo zonke umuntu asibonile kuze kube manje ukuphulukiswa okuphelele nokubuyiselwa kwempilo yenyama kumuntu ofile. Kwenzeka into engajwayelekile ukuthi kube yishumi kuphela elilotshwe kulo lonke iBhayibheli. UJesu, ezikhathini ezintathu ezihlukene, wavusa umuntu (Luka 7:11 - 18, Marku 5:35 - 38, Luka 8:49 - 52, Johane 11).
Le ndatshana ibeka izizathu eziyinhloko zokuthi kungani ukuvuswa kukaLazaru okukuJohane 11, kwaba isimangaliso esiyingqayizivele kunabo bonke esaboniswa ngesikhathi senkonzo kaJesu.
Umngane womndeni
Ukuvusa abantu ababili kokuqala kukaJesu (indodana yowesifazane ongumfelokazi nendodakazi yomphathi wesinagoge) kwakuhilela abantu angabazi mathupha. Endabeni kaLazaru, nokho, wayechithe isikhathi naye nodadewabo ngesinye isikhathi esilotshiwe (Luka 10:38 - 42) futhi mhlawumbe nabanye, ngokunikezwa ukusondela kakhulu kweBethaniya neJerusalema. UKristu wayenobudlelwano obuseduze nobunothando noMariya, uMartha, noLazaru ngaphambi kwesimangaliso sakhe esilotshwe kuJohn 11 (bheka uJohn 11: 3, 5, 36).
Umcimbi ohleliwe
Ukuvuswa kukaLazaru eBhethaniya kwakuyisimangaliso esasihlelwe ngokucophelela sokwandisa inkazimulo eyayizoyenzela uNkulunkulu (NgokukaJohane 11: 4). Wabuye wahlanganisa ukumelana noJesu yiziphathimandla zenkolo zamaJuda eziphezulu futhi waqala ukuhlela okwakuzoholela ekuboshweni nasekubethelweni kwakhe (ivesi 53).
UJesu uqobo watshelwa ukuthi uLazaru wayegula kakhulu (Johane 11: 6). Wayengagijimela eBethany ayomphilisa noma, lapho ayekhona, wavele wayala ukuthi umngane wakhe aphulukiswe (bona uJohane 4:46 - 53). Esikhundleni salokho, ukhetha ukulinda kuze kube sekufeni kukaLazaru ngaphambi kokuya eBethaniya (amavesi 6 - 7, 11 - 14).
INkosi nabafundi bayo bafika eBethaniya ezinsukwini ezine emva kokufa nokungcwatshwa kukaLazaru (Johane 11:17). Izinsuku ezine zazizide ngokwanele ukuthi umzimba wakhe uqale ukuphunga iphunga elibi ngenxa yenyama yakhe ebolayo (ivesi 39). Lokhu kubambezeleka kuhlelwe ngendlela yokuthi nabagxeki bakaJesu abanzima kakhulu ngeke bakwazi ukuchaza isimangaliso esiyingqayizivele nesimangalisayo asenzayo (bheka amavesi 46 - 48).
Izinsuku ezine futhi zavumela izindaba zokufa kukaLazaru ukuba ziye eJerusalema eliseduze. Lokhu kuvumele abalilayo ukuthi baye eBethany ukuyoduduza imindeni yabo futhi babe ngofakazi abangalindelekile bamandla kaNkulunkulu ngeNdodana yakhe (Johane 11:31, 33, 36 - 37, 45).
Izinyembezi ezingejwayelekile
Ukuvuswa kukaLazaru ukuphela kwesikhathi esilotshiwe lapho uJesu ebonakala ekhala khona ngaphambi kokwenza isimangaliso (Johane 11:35) Futhi yisona kuphela isikhathi lapho wabubula ngaphakathi kwakhe ngaphambi kokubonakalisa amandla kaNkulunkulu (Johane 11:33, 38). Bona indatshana yethu ethokozisayo yokuthi kungani uMsindisi wethu wabubula futhi wakhala ngaphambi nje kwalokhu kuvuka kwabafileyo kwakamuva!
Ufakazi omkhulu
Ukuvuka ngokuyisimangaliso eBhethaniya kwakuyisenzo sikaNkulunkulu esingenakuphikwa esabonwa yisixuku esikhulu sabantu.
Ukuvuswa kukaLazaru akubonwanga yibo bonke abafundi bakaJesu kuphela, kodwa nalabo baseBethaniya belilela ukulahlekelwa kwakhe. Lesi simangaliso saphinde sabonwa yizihlobo, abangani namanye amaqembu athintekayo ayevela eJerusalema eliseduze (Johane 11: 7, 18 - 19, 31). Iqiniso lokuthi umndeni kaLazaru nawo wawuchuma ngokwezimali (bheka uJohane 12: 1 - 5, uLuka 10:38 - 40) ngokungangabazeki nakho kwaba nomthelela esixukwini esikhulu kunokujwayelekile.
Kuyathakazelisa ukuthi abaningi ababengakholelwa kuJesu babengavusa abafileyo noma bamgxeke ngokusobala ngokungafiki kwakhe ngaphambi kokuba uLazaru afe futhi babona isimangaliso sakhe esikhulu (Johane 11:21, 32, 37, 39, 41 - 42) . Ngempela, abantu abaningana ababengabahlanganyeli babaFarisi, iqembu lenkolo elalizonda uKristu, babika ngokwenzeka kubo (Johane 11:46).
Ubumbano nesiprofetho
Igalelo lesimangaliso sikaJesu lanele ukuthethelela umhlangano ohleliwe weSanhedrini, inkantolo ephakeme kakhulu yezenkolo phakathi kwamaJuda ehlangana eJerusalema (Johane 11:47).
Ukuvuswa kukaLazaru kuqinisa ukwesaba nenzondo ubuholi bamaJuda abanabo ngoJesu (Johane 11:47 - 48). Kubashukumisela nokuthi bakhe itulo njengeqembu, lokuthi bangambulala kanjani (ivesi 53). UKristu, azi izinhlelo zabo, ushiya iBethany abheke kwa-Efrayimi (ivesi 54).
Umpristi omkhulu wethempeli, lapho etshelwa ngesimangaliso sikaKristu (yena engazi), unikeza isiprofetho sokuthi impilo kaJesu kumele iqedwe ukuze sonke isizwe sisindiswe (Johane 11:49 - 52). Amazwi akhe yiwo wodwa ayezowakhuluma njengobufakazi besimo sangempela nenhloso yenkonzo kaJesu.
AmaJuda, angenasiqiniseko sokuthi uKristu uzokuza eJerusalema ngePhasika, akhipha umyalo wawo owodwa obhalisiwe omelene naye. Umthetho osatshalaliswa kabanzi uthi wonke amaJuda athembekile, uma ebona iNkosi, kumele abike isikhundla sakhe ukuze aboshwe (John 11:57).
Inkazimulo yesikhathi eside
Isimo esimangazayo nesisesidlangalaleni sikaLazaru ovuswe kwabafileyo saletha udumo oludlangile, ngokushesha nangesikhathi eside, kuNkulunkulu nakuJesu Kristu. Lokhu, akumangazi ukuthi kwakuyinjongo enkulu yeNkosi (Johane 11: 4, 40).
Ukumangalisa kukaJesu amandla kaNkulunkulu kangangoba namaJuda ayengabaza ukuthi unguMesiya othenjisiwe amkholwa (Johane 11:45)
Ukuvuswa kukaLazaru kwakuse "ngundabamlonyeni" emasontweni adlule lapho uJesu ebuyela eBethaniya ezomvakashela (uJohane 12: 1). Ngempela, ngemuva kokuthola ukuthi uKristu wayesemzaneni, amaJuda amaningi awazanga ukumbona kuphela kodwa noLazaru (Johane 12: 9)!
Isimangaliso esenziwa nguJesu sasisikhulu futhi siyaphawuleka ukuthi umthelela waso uyaqhubeka nanamuhla ngisho nakwisiko elidumile. Kukhuthaze ukwakhiwa kwezincwadi, izinhlelo zethelevishini, amafilimu, namagama ahlobene nesayensi. Izibonelo zifaka phakathi "Umphumela KaLazaru," isihloko senoveli eqanjiwe yesayensi yango-1983, kanye negama lefilimu eyethusayo yango-2015. Amanoveli amaningi kaRobert Heinlein aqamba amanga asebenzisa umlingiswa ophambili ogama lakhe linguLazaro Long owayenempilo yinde ngendlela eyisimanga.
Inkulumo yesimanje ethi "Lazarus Syndrome" ibhekisa esimweni sezokwelapha sokujikeleza kwegazi kubuyela kumuntu ngemuva kokuba imizamo yokuvuselela ivulekile. Ukuphakanyiswa nokuncishiswa kwengalo okufushane, kwezinye iziguli ezife ngengqondo, kubizwa ngokuthi "yisibonakaliso sikaLazaru".
isiphetho
Ukuvuswa kukaLazaru kuyisimangaliso esikhulu kunazo zonke esenziwa nguJesu futhi kalula kwesinye sezenzakalo ezibaluleke kakhulu kwiTestamente Elisha. Ayigcini nje ngokukhombisa amandla kaNkulunkulu aphelele negunya lakhe phezu kwabo bonke abantu, kodwa ifakaza, kuze kube phakade, ukuthi uJesu unguMesiya othenjisiwe.
