“ʻOku Mau Fiefia ʻia Kalaisi”
Naʻe akoʻi ʻe Nīfai ko e ngaahi lea ʻa ʻĪsaiá ʻoku “mahinongofua ia kiate kinautolu kotoa pē ʻoku fonu ʻi he Laumālie ʻo e kikité” (2 Nīfai 25:4). Fekumi ki he laumālie ʻo e kikité ʻi hoʻo laukongá ʻaki haʻo teuteuʻi fakalaumālie koe, fakafanongo ki he Laumālié, mo lekooti hoʻo ngaahi ongó.
Lekooti e Ngaahi Ongo ʻOkú ke Maʻú
ʻOku ʻikai faingofua hono tohitongi e ʻū laʻi peleti ukameá, pea ne siʻisiʻi pē ʻa e feituʻu naʻe ʻatā ʻi he ngaahi peleti iiki ʻa Nīfaí. Ko e hā leva ʻa e ʻuhinga naʻe fakahoko ai ʻe Nīfai ʻa e ngāue lahi ʻo e toe hiki tatau e konga lahi ʻo e ngaahi tohi ʻa ʻĪsaiá ki heʻene lekōtí? Naʻá ne fai ía koeʻuhí “ʻilonga ha taha … ʻe mamata ki he ngaahi leá ni te nau hiki hake honau lotó pea fiefia” (2 Nīfai 11:8). Ko hono moʻoní, ko e fakaafe ko ia ke lau e ngaahi tohi ʻa ʻĪsaiá ko ha fakaafe ia ke fiefia. Te ke lava ʻo fiefia, hangē ko Nīfaí, ʻi he ngaahi kikite ʻa ʻĪsaia fekauʻaki mo hono tānaki fakataha ʻo ʻIsilelí, hāʻele mai ʻa e Mīsaiá, pea mo e nonga ʻo e nofotuʻí naʻe talaʻofa ki he kakai angatonú. ʻE lava ke ke fiefia, naʻa mo ha ʻaho ʻo e “mamahi mo e fakapoʻuli”, kuó ke “mamata ki [ha] maama lahi” (2 Nīfai 18:22; 19:2). ʻE lava ke ke fiefia ʻi hoʻo lava ke “ʻutu mei he ngaahi vai ʻo e fakamoʻuí” (2 Nīfai 22:3). Ko hono fakalea ʻe tahá, te ke lava ʻo “fiefia ʻia Kalaisi” (2 Nīfai 25:26).
Ngaahi Fakakaukau ki hono Ako Fakataautaha ʻo e Folofolá
ʻE lava fēfē ke mahino lelei ange kiate au e ngaahi akonaki ʻa ʻĪsaiá?
Naʻe pehē ʻe Nīfai ne ʻi ai ha niʻihi ne “[taʻemahino ki ai e] ngaahi lea ʻa ʻĪsaiá” (2 Nīfai 25:4). ʻE lava ke moʻoni ʻaupito ʻeni ʻiate kinautolu ʻoku ʻikai ke nau maheni mo e anga fakafonua ʻo e kakai Siú he kuonga muʻá ʻo hangē ko Nīfaí (vakai, 2 Nīfai 25:6). Ka naʻe toe fai foki ʻe Nīfai ha faleʻi ke tokoni ke tau ʻilo ʻa e ʻuhinga ʻi he ngaahi tohi ʻa ʻĪsaiá:
-
“Fakatatau ʻene ngaahi leá” kiate kimoutolu (2 Nīfai 11:2).ʻE malava ke lahi ha ngaahi fakaʻuhinga mo ha ngaahi founga fakaʻaongaʻi ʻo ha konga lahi e ngaahi akonaki ʻa ʻĪsaiá. Hangē ko ʻení, ʻe ala ueʻi koe ʻe heʻene ngaahi tohi fekauʻaki mo e fakamoveteveteʻi mo e tānaki ʻo ʻIsilelí ke ke fakakaukau ki hono “tānaki” mai kimoutolu ki he Fakamoʻuí.
-
Feinga ke mou “fonu ʻi he laumālie ʻo e kikité” (2 Nīfai 25:4).Ko e founga lelei taha ke mahino ai ʻa e ngaahi kikite ʻa ʻĪsaiá ko haʻo fekumi ki ha fakahinohino mei he Laumālié. Lotua ha fakahinohino fakalaumālie. Mahalo he ʻikai mahino kotoa kiate koe ʻi he taimi pē ko iá, ka ʻe lava ke tokoni atu ʻa e Laumālié ke ke ako ʻa e meʻa ʻoku fie maʻu ke ke ʻilo ki hoʻo moʻui he ʻaho ní.
Te ke ala fakatokangaʻi foki hono ʻaonga ke ke fakaʻaongaʻi e ngaahi tokoni ʻi he ngaahi folofolá ki hono akó, kau ai e ngaahi futinoutí, ʻuluʻi tohi ʻo e vahé, Fakahinohino ki he Ngaahi Folofolá, mo e ngaahi alā meʻa peheé.
“Ko e founga totonú ke ke tui kia Kalaisi.”
Naʻe kamata mo fakaʻosi ʻaki ʻe Nīfai ʻene fakamatala ne toʻo mei he tohi ʻa ʻĪsaiá ʻaki ʻene fakahā ʻa ʻene fakamoʻoni kia Sīsū Kalaisí (vakai, 2 Nīfai 11:2–8; 25:19–29). Ko e hā ʻoku makehe kiate koe fekauʻaki mo ʻene fakamoʻoní? ʻI hoʻo ako he ʻuike ní, fakakaukau ki he holi ʻa Nīfai ke “fakalotoʻi ʻa [ʻene] fānaú … ke nau tui kia Kalaisi, mo fakalelei ki he ʻOtuá” (2 Nīfai 25:23), peá ke fakaʻilongaʻi ‘a e ngaahi potu-folofola ʻoku nau fakalotoʻi koe ke ke tui pea mo muimui ʻia Sīsū Kalaisí.
ʻE ala tokoni ke ke manatuʻi ʻoku fakafou ha konga lahi ʻo e ngaahi akonaki ʻa ʻĪsaia fekauʻaki mo e Fakamoʻuí ʻi ha ngaahi fakataipe. Hangē ko ʻení, te ke lava ʻo fakatokangaʻi ʻa e Fakamoʻuí ʻi he ngaahi fakataipe hangē ko e ʻeiki ʻo ha ngoue vaine (vakai, 2 Nīfai 15:1–7), ko ha maka (vakai, 2 Nīfai 18:14), mo ha maama (vakai, 2 Nīfai 19:2). Ko e hā mo ha ngaahi fakataipe kehe ʻo Sīsū Kalaisi ʻokú ke maʻu ʻi he ngaahi vahe ko ʻení? Ko e hā ʻoku akoʻi atu ʻe he ngaahi fakataipe ko ʻení fekauʻaki mo Ia?
ʻE tukuhifo ʻa e hīkisiá mo e fakamāmaní.
Naʻe tomuʻa kikiteʻi ʻe Nīfai ʻe fakatupu ʻe he hīkisiá e hōloa hono kakaí (vakai, 1 Nīfai 12:19). ʻOku ʻikai leva ha ofo ʻi hono vahevahe ʻe Nīfai ki hono kakaí e ngaahi fakatokanga naʻe toutou fai ʻe ʻĪsaia fekauʻaki mo e hīkisiá. ʻI he vahe 12 mo e 13, kumi ʻa e ngaahi foʻi lea naʻe ngāue ʻaki ʻe ʻĪsaia ke fakamatalaʻi ʻa e tuʻunga hīkisiá, hangē ko e, pōlepolé mo e fielahí. Hili ia pea te ke lava ʻo feinga ke toe fakalea e ngaahi fakatokanga ko ʻení ʻaki ha lea pē ʻaʻau, ʻo hangē haʻo fai ha pōpoaki pē kiate koe ke fakatokanga fekauʻaki mo e hīkisiá.
