Hepelū 5

Ko e akoʻi ʻe Paula kuo pau ke ui ʻe he ʻOtuá ʻa kinautolu ʻoku maʻu ʻa e lakanga fakataulaʻeikí

Kimuʻa pea kamata e kalasí, hiki ʻa e ngaahi tuʻunga takitaha ko ʻení ʻi ha laʻipepa mavahevahe: Toketā mo e ʻŌfisa Lao. Fakaafeʻi ha ongo tamaiki ako ke na haʻu ki muʻa he kalasí, pea ʻoange e ongo laʻipepá ke na takitaha. Pea fai ʻa e ngaahi fehuʻi ko ʻení:

Neongo ʻoku puke atu ʻe he ongo tamaiki akó ʻa e ongo laʻipepá ʻo fakahaaʻi ai e tuʻunga totonú, ka ko e hā te ke hohaʻa ki ai kapau ʻe feinga ʻa (fakaʻaongaʻi e hingoa ʻo e tokotaha ʻokú ne puke ʻa e laʻipepa “Toketā”) ke tafa koe hili haʻo ʻi ha fakatuʻutāmaki?
Te ke tali fēfē kapau naʻe feinga ʻa [fakaʻaongaʻi e hingoa ʻo e tokotaha ako ʻokú ne puke ʻa e laʻipepa “ʻŌfisa Lao”] ke hiki tikite koe?
Ko e hā te ke momou ai ke fakaʻatā e ongo tamaiki akó ni ke fakahoko e ngaahi ngāue ʻoku fekauʻaki mo e tuʻunga kuó na ʻai kiate kinauá? (ʻOku ʻikai maʻu ʻe he ongo tamaiki akó ni ʻa e mafai mo e taukei ke fakahoko ʻaki e ngaahi ngāue ko iá.)

Fakamatalaʻi ange hangē pē ko ia kuo fokotuʻu ʻe he sosaietí e ngaahi tuʻunga feʻunga ʻoku fie maʻú mo e ngaahi founga ke maʻu ai e mafai ke fakahoko ha ngaahi fatongia paú, kuo fokotuʻu ʻe he ʻOtuá e ngaahi tuʻunga feʻunga ʻoku fie maʻú (hangē ko e faitotonú mo e moʻui tāú) mo e ngaahi founga ke maʻu ai e mafai ke fakahoko ʻaki ha ngaahi fatongia pau ʻi Hono Siasí. Fakaafeʻi e kau akó ʻi heʻenau ako e Hepelū 5 ke kumi e sīpinga kuo fokotuʻu ʻe he ʻOtuá ki hono maʻu e mafai ko ʻení.

Fakamanatu ki he kau akó, naʻe fakamatalaʻi ʻe Paula ʻa e Fakamoʻuí ʻo hangē ko hono lekooti ʻi he Hepelū 4:14–16, ko ha “fungani taulaʻeiki lahi” (veesi 14). Fakaafeʻi ha tokotaha ako ke lau leʻolahi e Hepelū 5:1–3. Kole ki he kalasí ke muimui ki ai, ʻo kumi e meʻa naʻe akoʻi ʻe Paula fekauʻaki mo e fatongia ʻo e taulaʻeiki lahí ʻi he lotolotonga ʻo e kau ʻIsilelí.

Ko e hā e fatongia ʻo e taulaʻeiki lahí ʻi he lotolotonga ʻo e kau ʻIsilelí?

Fakamatalaʻi ange ko e lakanga ʻo e taulaʻeiki lahí ne ʻuhinga ki ai ʻi he ngaahi veesi ko ʻení, naʻe ʻi he malumalu ʻo e fono ʻa Mōsesé, ko e lakanga pule ʻi he Lakanga Taulaʻeiki Faka-ʻĒloné. Ko ʻĒlone, tokoua ʻo Mōsesé, ʻa e “ʻuluaki taulaʻeiki lahi ʻo e lakanga ʻo ʻĒloné.” Naʻe tukufakahoko ʻa e lakangá; hili e kuonga ʻo ʻĒloné, naʻe fili ʻa e taulaʻeiki lahí mei he ngaahi ʻuluaki foha ʻo e hako ʻo ʻĒloné mo hono ngaahi fohá. Naʻe faʻa ngāue ʻa e taulaʻeiki lahí ki he ngataʻanga ʻo ʻene moʻuí, ka naʻe faifai pē pea ikuʻi ʻa e lakangá ni ʻe ha kau tangata faiangahala. “Naʻe fokotuʻu mo tukuange taʻetotonu e kau taulaʻeiki lahí ʻe Hēlota mo e kau Lomá ʻo fakatatau ki heʻenau fiemālié. Naʻe maʻu e lakangá ʻe he kau tangata kehekehe ʻe toko 28 ʻi he vahaʻa ʻo e 37K.M. mo e T.S. 68” (Bible Dictionary, “High Priest”).

Fakaafeʻi ha tokotaha ako ke lau leʻolahi ʻa e Hepelū 5:4. Kole ki he kalasí ke muimui ki ai, ʻo kumi e founga naʻe fili ʻaki ʻa e taulaʻeiki lahí.

Naʻe founga fēfē hono fili ʻo e taulaʻeiki lahí?

Ke tokoni ke mahino ki he kau akó e founga naʻe “ui ʻe he ʻOtuá” ʻa ʻĒloné (veesi 4), fakaafeʻi ha tokotaha ako ke lau leʻolahi e ʻEkesōtosi 28:1. Kimuʻa pea lau ʻe he tokotaha akó e veesi ko ʻení, fakamatalaʻi ange naʻe hoko ʻeni ʻi he vahaʻa ʻo e ʻOtuá mo Mōsese ʻi he Moʻunga ko Sainaí.

Naʻe uiuiʻi fēfē ʻe he ʻOtuá ʻa ʻĒlone ke fakanofo ki he lakanga fakataulaʻeikí?
Ko e hā ʻoku mahuʻinga ai hono ʻoange ʻe he ʻEikí ʻa e fakahinohino ko ʻení kia Mōsesé kae ʻikai ki ha tokotaha kehe? (Ko Mōsese ʻa e palōfitá pea naʻe fakamafaiʻi ia ke maʻu ʻa e ngaahi fakahā peheé pea ke puleʻi hono fakaʻaongaʻi e lakanga fakataulaʻeikí ʻi he māmaní.)
Ko e hā kuo pau ke hoko kae lava ʻo fakanofo ha taha ki he lakanga fakataulaʻeikí? (ʻE lava ke fakaʻaongaʻi ʻe he kau akó ha fakalea kehe, kae fakapapauʻi ʻoku nau ʻiloʻi ʻa e moʻoni ko ʻení: Ko kinautolu ʻoku fakanofo ki he lakanga fakataulaʻeikí kuo pau ke uiuiʻi ʻe he ʻOtuá ʻi he fakahā ʻo fakafou ʻi Heʻene kau tamaioʻeiki kuo fakamafaiʻí. Mahalo te ke fie fakamatalaʻi ange ʻi he Siasí he ʻahó ni, kuo pau ke ʻinitaviu ʻe he kau taki lakanga fakataulaʻeiki kuo fakamafaiʻí ʻa e tokotaha takitaha ke fakanofó mo fekumi ki he fakahinohino ʻa e Laumālie Māʻoniʻoní ke fakapapauʻi ʻa e mateuteu mo e taau ʻa ha tokotaha ke fakanofo ki he lakanga fakataulaʻeikí. Vakai foki, Sione 15:16.)
ʻOku fekauʻaki fēfē ʻa e foʻi moʻoni ko ʻení mo e founga ʻo hono ui e kakaí ki he ngaahi tuʻunga he Siasí?

Fakaafeʻi ha tokotaha ako ke lau leʻolahi ʻa e tefito ʻo e tui hono nimá. Kole ki he kalasí ke muimui ki ai, ʻo kumi e founga ʻoku fakahaaʻi ai e moʻoni ne nau ʻilo ʻi he Hepelū 5:4 ʻi he tefito ʻo e tui hono nimá. Fakamatalaʻi ange ʻoku ʻuhinga ʻa e kikité ki he fakahā.

Fakatatau ki he tefito ʻo e tui ko ʻení, ko e hā ha toe meʻa kuo pau ke hoko kae lava ke fakamafaiʻi ha taha ke “malanga ʻaki ʻa e Ongoongoleleí mo fakahoko hono ngaahi ouaú”?

Fakamahinoʻi ange ʻoku lekooti ʻi he Fuakava Motuá mo e Fuakava Foʻoú fakatouʻosi naʻe maʻu ʻe he kau palōfitá, kau maʻu lakanga fakataulaʻeikí, mo e kau faiako ʻo e ongoongoleleí honau uiuiʻí ʻi he hilifaki ʻo e nimá ʻe ha tokotaha maʻu lakanga fakataulaʻeiki kuo fakamafaiʻi (vakai, Nōmipa 27:18–23; Ngāue 6:6; 13:2–3; 1 Tīmote 4:14).

ʻOku poupouʻi e Kāingalotú ke nau faivelenga, tui, kātaki, mo ʻamanaki lelei ʻi hono maʻu e ngaahi talaʻofa ʻa e ʻOtuá

Ko e hā ha ngaahi sīpinga ʻo e ngaahi tāpuaki kuo talaʻofa ʻe he ʻOtuá ki Heʻene fānaú? (ʻE lava ke kau ʻi he ngaahi talí ʻa e nongá, fiefiá, faʻa fakamolemolé, ngaahi tali ki heʻenau lotú, ngaahi tāpuaki ʻoku kau ʻi he tāpuaki fakapēteliaké, toetuʻú, mo e moʻui taʻengatá. Fakamahinoʻi ange ʻoku makatuʻunga ʻa e ngaahi tāpuaki ʻe niʻihi ʻi heʻetau ngaahi filí.)
Ko e hā ha sīpinga ʻo ha ngaahi tūkunga te tau fifili ai pe te tau toe maʻu ha tāpuaki pau kuo talaʻofa mai?

Fakaafeʻi e kau akó ke tohi ʻi heʻenau tohinoa ako folofolá pe ʻi ha laʻipepa ha tāpuaki kuo talaʻofa mai ʻoku nau ʻamanaki atu ke maʻu. Fakaafeʻi kinautolu ke kumi ha ngaahi moʻoni ʻi he Hepelū 6 te ne lava ʻo tokoniʻi kinautolu ke maʻu ʻa e ngaahi tāpuaki kuo talaʻofa ʻe he ʻOtuá.

Fakaafeʻi ha tokotaha ako ke lau leʻolahi e Hepelū 6:1–3. Kole ki he kalasí ke muimui ki ai, ʻo kumi e meʻa naʻe akoʻi ʻe Paula ki he Kāingalotú ke nau ngāueʻí. Fakamahinoʻi ange ʻoku pehē ʻe he Liliu ʻa Siosefa Sāmitá, Hepelū 6:1 (ʻi he Fakahinohino ki he Folofolá), “Ko ia foki ke ʻoua ʻe liʻaki ʻa e ngaahi tefitoʻi moʻoni ʻo e tokāteline ʻa e Kalaisí” (tānaki atu hono fakamamafaʻí) pea ʻoku pehē ʻi he Liliu ʻa Siosefa Sāmitá, Hepelū 6:3 (ʻi he Fakahinohino ki he Folofolá), “Pea tau fai atu ki he Haohaoá ʻo ka hōifua ki ai ʻa e ʻOtuá.”

Fakatatau ki he veesi 1, ko e hā naʻe akoʻi ʻe Paula e Kāingalotú ke nau ngāueʻí? (Fakamatalaʻi ange ʻoku ʻuhinga ʻa e haohaoá ki he tuʻunga ʻo e “kakato, kātoa, mo e tupulaki kakato. … ʻE lava ʻa e kakai muimui moʻoni kia Kalaisí ʻo haohaoa ʻi Heʻene ʻaloʻofá mo e Fakaleleí” [Fakahinohino ki he Folofolá, “Haohaoá,” scriptures.lds.org].)

Fakamatalaʻi fakanounou ʻa e Hepelū 6:4–8 ʻaki hano fakamatalaʻi ange naʻe fakamatalaʻi ʻe Paula ʻa kinautolu ko e ngaahi foha ʻo e malaʻiá, ne nau maʻu ha ʻilo haohaoa ki he ʻOtuá pea tafoki mei he moʻoni ko ʻení, angatuʻu ki he Fakamoʻuí, mo ʻikai fie fakatomalá (vakai foki, T&F 29:44–45; 76:31–38).

Fakaafeʻi ha tokotaha ako ke lau leʻolahi e Hepelū 6:16–20. Kole ki he kalasí ke muimui ki ai, ʻo kumi e meʻa naʻe akoʻi ʻe Paula fekauʻaki mo e ʻamanaki leleí mo e ngaahi talaʻofa ʻa e ʻOtuá.
