Naʻá ne ʻiloʻi ne fakangatangata hono taimi ke liliú koeʻuhí ko e fie maʻu ko ia ke ngāue ke tauhi ʻaki hono fāmilí. Ne tokoni ʻa ʻEma mo e tehina ʻo Siosefa ko Samuelá ʻaki ʻena hoko ko ha ongo tangata tohí, ka naʻe ʻikai ke na lava ʻo fai taimi kakato ʻeni. Kuo laka hake ʻeni ʻi he taʻu ʻe taha mo e kongá hono tuku kia Siosefa ʻa e ʻū lauʻi peletí pea, ʻi he mole ʻa e peesi ʻe 116 ʻo e tohi fakamatalá, ne siʻi e ʻū peesi naʻe ʻosi liliú . Naʻe lotu ʻa Siosefa ke ʻomi ʻe he ʻEikí ha taha te ne lava ke tokoni kiate ia ʻi he ngāue ʻo e liliu leá. Naʻe fekauʻi ʻe he ʻEikí ʻa ʻŌliva Kautele ke hoko ko ha tangata tohi ko e tali ki he lotu ʻa Siosefá.

Naʻe fakaʻaongaʻi ʻe ʻEletā Tēvita A. Petinā ʻo e Kōlomu ʻo e Kau ʻAposetolo ʻe Toko Hongofulu Mā Uá ʻa e tala fakatātā ko ʻení ke akoʻi kau ki he fakahā fakatāutahá:
“ʻOku hangē tofu pē hono maʻu vave, kakato mo fakaʻangataha ha pōpoaki mei he ʻOtuá, ko ha maama ʻoku fakaulo ʻi ha loki ʻoku fakapoʻulí. Kuo aʻusia ʻe hatau tokolahi e sīpinga fakahā koʻení ʻi he taimi ʻoku tau maʻu ai e tali ki ha lotu fakamātoato pe fakafou mai ai e fakahinohino pe maluʻi ʻoku fie maʻú, ʻo fakatatau ki he taimi mo e finangalo ʻo e ʻOtuá. ʻOku lahi ha fakamatala ki he ngaahi fakahā ʻoku hoko vave mo fuʻu ʻilongá, ʻoku maʻu kinautolu he folofolá, hisitōlia ʻo e Siasí, pea toe ʻasi pē ia ʻi heʻetau moʻuí. ʻIo, ʻoku hoko moʻoni ʻa e ngaahi mana maʻongoʻonga ko ʻení. Neongo iá, ko e sīpinga fakahā ko ʻení ʻoku hāhāmolofia ia ʻo ʻikai ke hoko maʻu pē.
“Ko e ulo māmālie mai ko ia ʻa e laʻaá ʻi heʻene hopo haké, ʻoku hangē ia ko hano maʻu ha pōpoaki mei he ʻOtuá ʻi he ‘ʻotu lea ki he ʻotu lea, ʻa e akonaki ki he akonaki’ (2 Nīfai 28:30). Ka ko e taimi lahi ʻoku ʻomi fakakongokonga e fakahaá ʻo fakatatau ki heʻetau fakaʻamú, moʻui tāú, mo e mateuteú.

Fakalaulauloto ki he ngaahi taimi kuo tali ai ʻe he ʻEikí hoʻo ngaahi lotú he taimi pē ko iá mo e ngaahi taimi kuó Ne tali māmālie mai aí. Tohi ʻi hoʻo tohinoa ako folofolá kau ki ha taha ʻo hoʻo ngaahi aʻusiá.
ʻI hoʻo ako ʻa e Tokāteline mo e Ngaahi Fuakava 6, fekumi ki he ngaahi moʻoni te ne tokoniʻi koe ke ke fakatokangaʻi e taimi ʻoku foaki atu ai ʻe he ʻOtuá ha fakahā kiate koe.

Ne fononga ʻa ʻŌliva mei Palemaila, ʻi Niu ʻIoké, ke feʻiloaki mo Siosefa ʻi Hāmoni, Penisilivēnia, naʻe maile nai ʻe 140 hono mamaʻó (vakai ki he mape 1 ʻo e hisitōlia ʻo e Siasí, “Tokelau Hahake ʻo e ʻIunaiteti Siteití”).
Hili ha taimi nounou e kamata ngāue ʻa ʻŌliva ko ha tangata tohi maʻa Siosefá, naʻe maʻu ʻe Siosefa ha fakahā ʻa ia naʻe folofola ai ʻa e ʻEikí kia ʻŌliva. Ne fakataumuʻa e fakahā ko ʻení ki he ngaahi holi ʻa ʻŌlivá pea tali ʻa e ngaahi fehuʻi naʻá ne lotua ka ne teʻeki ke ne fakahā kia Siosefá.

ʻI heʻetau fekumi ki ha ngaahi tali mei he Tamai Hēvaní, te Ne foaki mai kiate kitautolu ha fakahinohino (vakai, T&F 6:14). ʻE lava ke ʻuhinga ʻa e “fakahinohino” ki ha ngaahi fakakaukau pe ko e mahino ʻoku haʻu ki hotau ʻatamaí pea pehē ki he ngaahi aʻusia te ne lava ʻo tataki, teuteuʻi, pe tokoniʻi kitautolu ke tau aʻu ki he ngaahi fili totonú.
ʻE fakamaama ʻe he ʻEikí ʻa hotau ʻatamaí ʻo fakafou ʻi he Laumālie Māʻoniʻoní. ʻOku ʻuhinga ʻa e kupuʻi lea “fakamaama ho ʻatamaí” (T&F 6:15) ʻe ʻomi ʻe he ʻEikí e kiate kitautolu e ngaahi fakakaukaú mo e mahinó, ʻo fakafou ʻi he Laumālie Māʻoniʻoní. Mahalo te ke fie fakaʻilongaʻi ʻa e kupuʻi leá ni ʻi hoʻo folofolá.
ʻOku ʻafioʻi ʻe he ʻOtuá ʻetau ngaahi fakakaukaú mo e ngaahi holi ʻa hotau lotó (vakai, T&F 6:16).
ʻI he taimi kuo tau maʻu ai ʻa e fakahaá, ʻoku totonu ke tau mataʻikoloa ʻaki ia ʻi hotau lotó. ʻOku ʻuhinga ʻa e “mataʻikoloa ʻaki” e folofola ʻa e ʻEikí (T&F 6:20) ke fakamahuʻingaʻi ʻa e ngaahi lea ʻa e ʻEikí—ke ako, fakalaulauloto, pea ngāue ʻo fakatatau ki he ngaahi meʻa ʻoku fakahā mai ʻe he ʻEikí pea falala ki he fakahā ʻoku tau maʻú.
Lau ʻa e Tokāteline mo e Ngaahi Fuakava 6:21–24, pea fekumi ki he founga ʻe taha ʻoku fetuʻutaki mai ai e ʻEikí kiate kitautolú.
Fakafonu e ʻatā ko ʻení ʻaki e meʻa ʻokú ke maʻú: ʻOku folofola ʻa e ʻEikí ki hotau ʻatamaí ko ha fakamoʻoni ʻo e moʻoní. Mahalo te ke fie fakaʻilongaʻi ʻa e kupuʻi lea ʻokú ne akoʻi e foʻi moʻoni ko ʻení ʻi he Tokāteline mo e Ngaahi Fuakava 6:23.
Fakalaulauloto ki he fehuʻi ko ʻení: ʻOku tau faʻa tukunoaʻi pe liʻaki fēfē ʻa e tali ʻa e ʻEikí ki heʻetau ngaahi lotú?
Naʻe fakamatalaʻi ʻe ʻEletā Petinā ʻa e talanoa fakatātā ʻo e hopo ʻa e laʻaá ke fakamahinoʻi e founga ʻoku faʻa maʻu ai e fetuʻutaki mei he ʻEikí:
“ʻOku ʻi ai e ngaahi taimi ʻoku hopo hake e laʻaá ʻi ha pongipongi ʻoku ʻaoʻaofia pe kakapu. Koeʻuhí ko e tuʻunga fakapōpōʻulí, ʻoku faingataʻa ange leva ke tau sio ki he māmá, pea faingataʻa ke fakapapauʻi e taimi totonu ʻe mavahe hake ai e laʻaá ʻi he tafaʻaki langí. …
“ʻI he founga tatau pē, ʻoku tuʻo lahi ai ha ngaahi taimi ʻoku tau maʻu ha fakahā kae ʻikai ʻilo e founga ke fakatokangaʻi ai he taimi pē ko iá ʻa e founga mo e taimi ʻoku tau maʻu ai e fakahaá” (“Ko e Laumālie ʻo e Fakahaá,” 89).
Ne toki talaange ʻe ʻŌliva Kautele ki he Palōfitá hili hono maʻu e fakahā ʻi he Tokāteline mo e Ngaahi Fuakava 6 fekauʻaki mo e “pō” ko ia ne ʻuhinga ki ai e ʻEikí ʻi he veesi 22. Naʻe tohi ʻe Siosefa Sāmita ʻo pehē, “Hili ʻema maʻu ʻa e fakahā ko ʻení, ne talamai ʻe ʻŌliva Kautele kiate au ne hili ʻene ʻalu ki heʻeku tamaí ke nofo ai, pea hili hono fakahaaʻi ange ʻe he fāmilí kiate ia ʻo kau ki heʻeku maʻu e ʻū lauʻi peletí, naʻá ne ui ki he ʻEikí ʻi he pō ko iá ʻi heʻene ʻalu ke mohé ke ʻiloʻi pe ʻoku moʻoni e ngaahi meʻá ni, pea naʻe fakahā ange ʻe he ʻEikí naʻe moʻoni ia, ka naʻá ne fakapulipuli ʻa e meʻá ni kotoa, pea ʻikai ke ne fakahaaʻi ia ki ha taha; ko ia, hili hono foaki e fakahā ko ʻení, naʻá ne ʻiloʻi ʻa hono moʻoni ʻo e ngāué, koeʻuhí he ne ʻikai ʻilo ʻe ha taha moʻui ki he meʻa ʻi he fakahaá, ka ko e ʻOtuá pē mo ia” (ʻi he History of the Church, 1:35).
