Naʻe akoʻi ʻe Palesiteni Kōtoni B. Hingikelī ʻo pehē:
“ʻOku tau fie maʻu ha kau finemui. ʻOku nau fakahoko ha ngāue fakaofo. ʻOku nau lava ʻo hū ki ha ngaahi ʻapi ʻoku ʻikai lava e kau ʻeletaá ʻo hū ki aí.
“… ʻOku uouangataha ʻa e kau Palesitenisī ʻUluakí mo e Fakataha Alēlea ʻo e Toko Hongofulu Mā Uá ʻi he pehē ki hotau kau finemuí ʻoku ʻikai ke nau haʻisia ke ʻalu ʻo ngāue fakafaifekau. ʻOku ou ʻamanaki te u lea ʻaki ʻa e meʻa ʻoku totonu ke u lea ʻakí ʻi ha founga he ʻikai fakatupu lotomamahi ki ha taha. ʻOku ʻikai totonu ke ongoʻi ʻe he kau finemuí ʻoku ʻi ai haʻanau fatongia ʻo tatau mo e kau talavoú. ʻE ʻi ai hanau niʻihi ʻe fakaʻamu lahi ke ō. Kapau ko ia, ʻoku totonu ke nau fealēleaʻaki mo ʻenau pīsopé pea mo ʻenau mātuʻá” (“Some Thoughts on Temples, Retention of Converts, and Missionary Service,” Ensign, Nov. 1997, 52).
Tokāteline mo e Ngaahi Fuakava 36:6. Ko e hā ʻa e “toʻu tangata angakovi”?
ʻOku ʻuhinga ʻa e foʻi lea ko e angakovi ki ha meʻa ʻoku taʻemapuleʻi pea faingataʻa ke tokangaʻi. Ko ia, ko e kakai angakoví ko ha kakai taʻemapuleʻi, kakai angatuʻu ʻa ia ʻoku ʻikai hanga ʻenau moʻuí ki he ʻEikí. Naʻe pehē ʻe Palesiteni Siosefa Filitingi Sāmita, fekauʻaki mo kinautolu ʻi he ngaahi ʻaho kimui ní, “Ko ha toʻu tangata angakovi ʻeni, ʻoku ʻaʻeva ʻi he fakapoʻuli fakalaumālie” (Church History and Modern Revelation, 2 vols. [1953], 1:163). ʻOku maʻu foki ʻa e lea ko ʻení ʻi he Ngāue 2:40. (Vakai foki ki he, Doctrine and Covenants Student Manual, 2nd ed. [Church Educational System manual, 2001], 73.)
Tokāteline mo e Ngaahi Fuakava 36:6 Ko e hā hono ʻuhinga ʻo e “haʻu ki tuʻa mei he afí, ʻo fehiʻa foki ki he ngaahi kofu kuo likolikoʻi ʻaki ʻa e kakanó”?
Vakai ki he Sute 1:23, ʻa ia ʻoku ʻi ai ha lea ʻoku faitatau mo e folofola ʻa e ʻEikí ʻi he Tokāteline mo e Ngaahi Fuakava 36:6, naʻe tohi ʻe ʻEletā Pulusi R. Makongikī ʻo e Kōlomu ʻo e Kau ʻAposetolo ʻe Toko Hongofulu Mā Uá: “Ke taʻofi e mafola ʻo e mahakí ʻi ʻIsileli he kuonga muʻá, naʻe fakaʻauha e ngaahi vala ne uesia ʻe ha mahaki ʻaki hano tutu ia. (Levitiko 13:47–59; 15:4–17.) Pea ko ia ko e angahala ʻi he Siasí, ʻoku ʻa e kāingalotú ke fakaʻehiʻehi mei ha faʻahinga fetuʻutaki mo iá; ʻa e kofú, ʻo kapau, ʻo e kau fai angahalá ʻoku totonu ke tutú, ko hono ʻuhingá ko ha meʻa pē kuo pā ki he ʻuli ʻo e angahalá kuo pau ke fakaʻehiʻehi mei ai. Pea pehē foki mo kinautolu ʻoku ʻi he māmaní ʻa ia ʻoku fakaafeʻi ke kau fakataha ki he puleʻangá” (Doctrinal New Testament Commentary, 3 vols. [1965–73], 3:428).

Tokāteline mo e Ngaahi Fuakava 37:1 “ʻOua… toe liliu lea”
ʻOku ʻuhinga e Tokāteline mo e Ngaahi Fuakava 37:1 ki he Liliu ʻa Siosefa Sāmitá ʻo e Tohi Tapú. Kuo ʻosi hono liliu ʻe he Palōfita ko Siosefá ʻa e Tohi ʻa Molomoná. Ka neongo naʻe fuʻu mahuʻinga ʻaupito ʻa ʻene ngāué ʻi he Tohi Tapú, ne fika ʻuluaki e fie maʻu ke hiki ki ʻOhaiō “koeʻuhí ko e filí” (T&F 37:1). Naʻe hoko atu ʻene ngāue ki hono fakaleleiʻi ʻo e Tohi Tapú kimui ange ʻi ʻOhaiō. (Vakai foki, Doctrine and Covenants Student Manual, 2nd ed. [Church Educational System manual, 2001], 74.)
Tokāteline mo e Ngaahi Fuakava 37:3. Fakataha ki ʻOhaiō kae ʻoua ke foki mai ʻa ʻŌliva Kautele
Ne ngāue fakafaifekau ʻa ʻŌliva Kautele talu mei he vaeuaʻanga mālie ʻo ʻOkatopa 1830 (vakai, T&F 30:5–6; 32:2). Ne ʻave ia mo hono ngaahi hoa-ngāué ʻi ha ngāue fononga maile ʻe 1,400 ʻo fou atu ʻi Niu ʻIoke, ʻInitiana, ʻIlinoisi, mo ʻOhaiō ki Mīsuli, naʻa nau malanga ki he kakai Tuʻufonua ʻo ʻAmeliká ne nofo ʻi he kauʻāfonua fakahihifo ʻo Mīsulí pea fokotuʻu e konga fonua ʻe langa ai e temipalé mo e Selusalema Foʻoú (vakai, “Covenant of Oliver Cowdery and Others, 17 October 1830,” ʻi he Documents, Volume 1: July 1828–June 1831, vol. 1 of the Documents series of The Joseph Smith Papers [2013], 202–5). Naʻe fekauʻi ʻa e Kāingalotú ke hiki ki ʻOhaiō ʻo tatali ai ki he foki mai ʻa ʻŌliva Kautelí. Ko e hiki ko ʻeni ki ʻOhaioó ko ha teuteu ia ki hono maʻu ʻo ha ngaahi fakahinohino lahi ange ki hono fokotuʻu ʻo Saioné (vakai, T&F 38:31–33).
