ʻI he taimi naʻe hā ai ʻa Sīsū ki Heʻene kau ākongá hili ʻEne Toetuʻú, naʻá Ne fekauʻi kinautolu ke fakamafola ʻa e ongoongoleleí ki he māmaní kotoa (vakai, Mātiu 28:19–20).

Ko e akoʻi ʻe Pita ʻa Koniliusi, ko ha Senitaile

‘I heʻene aʻu mai ki he taimi ko ‘ení, ko e kau Siú pē kuo malangaʻi ki ai ʻa e ongoongoleleí tukukehe ha niʻihi tokosiʻi ʻi he taimi ko ʻení ʻo fakatatau ki he fakahinohino ʻa e Fakamoʻuí. (vakai Mātiu 10:5–6). Naʻe ʻi ai ha niʻihi tokosiʻi ʻo e kāingalotu ʻo e Siasi ʻo Kalaisí ko e kau Senitaile (ʻikai ko e kau Siu), ka naʻa nau ʻosi ului ki he tui faka-Siú kimuʻa pea nau muimui ʻia Kalaisí. Ka neongo iá, naʻe folofola e Fakamoʻuí ki Heʻene Kau ākongá te nau malanga “ki he ngataʻanga ʻo māmaní,” hili ʻenau maʻu ʻa e Laumālie Māʻoniʻoní ( Ngāue 1:8). ʻI he Ngāue 10 ʻoku tau lau ai kau ki ha liliu mahuʻinga ki he founga naʻe puleʻi ʻaki e Siasí te ne fakafaingofuaʻi ai eni.

  • Ko e hā naʻá ke maʻu ʻokú ne fakahaaʻi e ongo naʻe maʻu ʻe he Tamai Hēvaní fekauʻaki mo Koniliusí?

Naʻe tupu hake ʻa Pita ko ha Siu, ʻo muimui ki he ngaahi fekau mo e tukufakaholo ʻo e fono ʻa Mōsesé. Naʻe ʻi he fono ko ʻení ha ngaahi fiemaʻu pau ki he meʻa naʻe lava pea ʻikai lava ʻe he kakaí ʻo kaí (vakai, Levitiko 11).

  • Ko e hā te ke lava ʻo fai ke fekumi ki he tokoni ʻa e Tamai Hēvaní ke vakai ki he niʻihi kehé ʻo hangē ko Iá?

Lolotonga hono fakamoʻoniʻi ʻe Pita ʻa Sīsū Kalaisí, naʻe hoko mai ʻa e Laumālie Māʻoniʻoní kia Koniliusi mo hono falé. Naʻe fakaafeʻi leva kinautolu ʻe Pita ke nau papitaiso (vakai, Ngāue 10:44–48).
