Ne fehuʻi ange ʻe he kau kau tangata tohí mo e kau Fālesí ʻa e ʻuhinga ʻoku ʻikai fufulu ai ʻe he kau ākonga ʻa Sīsuú honau nimá kimuʻa pea nau kaí

Fakaafeʻi ha kau ako ʻe toko tolu ke lau leʻolahi ʻa e ngaahi fokotuʻutuʻu ko ʻení. Kole ki he kalasí ke fakafanongo ki he meʻa ʻoku tatau ai ʻa e ngaahi fokotuʻutuʻu ko ʻení.

  1. Ko ha finemui ne poupouʻi ʻe hono ngaahi kaungāmeʻá ke tui ha kofu taʻe-taau ki ha hulohula ako. Naʻe ʻilo ʻe he finemuí ʻoku ʻikai taau ʻa e teunga ko iá mo e ngaahi tuʻunga ʻulungaanga teunga taau ʻa e ʻEikí, neongo ʻoku tali pē hono tui e ngaahi teungaa hangē ko iá ʻi hono anga fakafonuá.

  2. Ko ha talavou ʻokú ne kau ki ha fāmili ʻi he Siasí ʻoku nau saiʻia he sipotí. ʻI he taimi ʻoku ʻasi mai ai ha ngaahi sipoti manakoa he televīsoné, ʻoku faʻa tuku ʻe he fāmilí ʻa e lotu fakafāmilí, ako folofolá, efiafi fakafāmili ʻi ʻapí, mo e ngaahi fakatahaʻanga ʻa e Siasí ʻi he ʻaho Sāpaté kae lava hono mamataʻi ʻo e ngaahi sipotí.

  • Ko e hā ʻoku faitatau ai ʻa e ngaahi fokotuʻutuʻu ko ʻení? (ʻOku fakafofongaʻi ʻe he ngaahi fokotuʻutuʻu takitaha ha fepakipaki ʻi he vahaʻa ʻo e talangofua ki he ngaahi fekau ʻa e ʻOtuá mo e ngāue fakatatau ki he ngaahi tala-tukufakaholó pe anga fakafonuá.)

Fakamatalaʻi ange ʻoku kau ki he ngaahi talatupuʻá pe anga fakafonuá ʻa e tuí mo e ngaahi founga ngāue ʻo ha anga fakafonua, tukui koló, fāmilí, pe ngaahi kaungāmeʻá.

Kole ki he kau akó ke kumi ki he ngaahi moʻoni ʻi he Mātiu 15 ʻa ia ʻe tokoni kiate kinautolu ʻi he taimi kuo pau ke nau fili ai ʻi he vahaʻa ʻo e talangofua ki he ngaahi fekau ʻa e ʻOtuá mo e kau atu ki he ngaahi talatupuʻá mo e ngaahi anga fakafonuá.

Fakaafeʻi ha tokotaha ako ke lau leʻolahi ʻa e Mātiu 15:1–2. Kole ki he kalasí ke muimui ʻi hono laú, ʻo kumi e ngaahi talatupuʻa naʻe fehuʻi ʻe he kau tangata tohí mo e kau Fālesí kia Sīsuú.

  • Ko e hā e ngaahi talatupuʻa naʻe ʻikai muimui ki ai ʻa e kau ākonga ʻa Sīsuú?

Fakamatalaʻi ange ʻoku ʻuhinga ʻa e fufulu ʻo e nimá ʻa ia naʻe lau ki ai ʻa e kau tangata tohí mo e kau Fālesí ki he kātoanga fufulu koeʻuhí ko e haohaoa ʻa e ouaú ka ʻoku ʻikai ʻuhinga ia ki he fufulu ke maʻá.

Fakaafeʻi ha tokotaha ako ke lau leʻolahi ʻa e Mātiu 15:3, pea kole ki he kalasí ke kumi e tali ʻa Sīsū ki he fehuʻi ʻa e kau tangata tohí mo e kau Fālesí.

  • Ko e hā naʻe pehē ʻe he Fakamoʻuí ʻoku fai ʻe he kau tangata tohí mo e kau Fālesí ʻi he kau atu ki heʻenau talatupuʻá?

Fakamatalaʻi fakanounou ʻa e Mātiu 15:4–6 ʻaki hono fakamatalaʻi ange naʻe ʻiloʻi ʻe he Fakamoʻuí ha sīpinga ki he founga naʻe maumauʻi ai ʻe he kau tangata tohí mo e kau Fālesí e fekau ʻa e ʻOtuá ʻi he kau atu ki heʻenau ngaahi talatupuʻá. Naʻa nau akoʻi ʻe “ʻataʻatā” ʻa e kakaí (veesi 6) mei honau fatongia ke tokangaʻi ʻenau mātuʻa toulekeleká ʻaki ʻene pehē naʻe tuku ʻenau paʻangá ko ha meʻaʻofa ki he ʻOtuá, pe Kopano (vakai, Maʻake 7:10–12). Ka neongo iá, naʻe akoʻi ʻe Sīsū ʻoku nau maumauʻi ai ʻa e fekau ke fakaʻapaʻapa ki hoʻomou Tamaí mo hoʻomou faʻeé, ʻi heʻenau fai iá.

Fakaafeʻi ha tokotaha ako ke lau leʻolahi e Mātiu 15:7–9, pea kole ki he kalasí ke kumi e meʻa naʻe tataki ʻe he kau tangata tohí mo e kau Fālesí ʻa e kakaí ke fai ʻaki hono ngāue ʻaki ʻenau ngaahi talatupuʻá ko ha kalofanga ke ʻoua ʻe talangofua ki he ngaahi fekau ʻa e ʻOtuá.

  • Ko e hā naʻe taki ʻe he kau tangata tohí mo e kau Fālesí e kakaí ke faí?

Kapau ʻoku tau maʻu e holi ke ʻunu ofi ki he ʻOtuá, kuo pau ke tau fokotuʻu ʻa ʻEne ngaahi fekaú ke māʻolunga ange ʻi he ngaahi tukufakaholo mo e ngaahi anga fakafonua ʻoku tau maʻú.)

Fakaafeʻi e kau akó ke toe lau leʻolahi ʻa e ngaahi fokotuʻutuʻú mei he kamataʻanga ʻo e lēsoní. Hili hono lau ʻo e ngaahi fokotuʻutuʻú takitaha, ʻeke ange:

Fakamahinoʻi ange naʻe pehē ʻe he Fakamoʻuí, “Ko ia ʻoku haʻu mei he ngutú … fakaʻuliʻi ʻa e tangatá” (veesi 11). Hili ʻene tala ki Heʻene kau ākongá ke ʻoua te nau tokanga ki he lea ʻa e kau Fālesí, ʻa ia naʻe ʻita ʻi Heʻene ngaahi leá (vakai, Mātiu 15:12–16), naʻá Ne toe fakamatala lahi ange fekauʻaki mo e meʻa moʻoni ʻokú ne fakaʻuliʻi kitautolu.

Fakaafeʻi ha kau ako tokosiʻi ke taufetongi hono lau leʻolahi ʻa e Mātiu 15:17–20. Kole ki he kalasí ke muimui ʻi hono laú, pea fekumi ki he meʻa naʻe ʻuhinga ki ai ʻa e Fakamoʻuí ʻi heʻene pehē, “Ko ia ʻoku haʻu mei he ngutú… fakaʻulii ʻa e tangatá” (veesi 11).
