Siosefa Sāmita—Mātiu 1:1–20

Ko hono kikiteʻi ʻo e fakaʻauha ʻo Selusalemá mo e temipalé

The Second Coming

Fakaʻaliʻali e fakatātā Ko e Hāʻele ʻAngauá (Tohi Fakatātā ʻo e Ongoongoleleí [2009], fika 66; vakai foki LDS.org). Fakaafeʻi e kau akó ke nau fakalaulauloto ki he ngaahi fehuʻi ʻoku nau maʻu fekauʻaki mo e Hāʻele ʻAngaua Mai ʻa Sīsū Kalaisí pea mo hiki ʻa e ngaahi fehuʻi ko ʻení ʻi heʻenau pepa ki he kalasí pe tohinoa ako folofolá. ʻOua naʻá ke feinga ke tali ʻa e ngaahi fehuʻi ko ʻení ʻi he taimí ni. Fakaafeʻi e kau akó ke nau fekumi ki ha ngaahi tali ʻi heʻenau ako ʻa e Siosefa Sāmita—Mātiu.

Fakamahinoʻi ange ko e Siosefa Sāmita—Mātiu ʻa e Liliu ʻa Siosefa Sāmita ʻo e Mātiu 23:39 mo e Mātiu 24. Fakamatalaʻi fakanounou ʻa e Siosefa Sāmita—Mātiu 1:1–3 ʻaki hano fakamatalaʻi ange, ʻi he akonaki ʻa Sīsū Kalaisi ʻi he temipale ʻo Selusalemá, naʻe mahino ki Heʻene kau ākongá te Ne toe foki mai ki māmani.

Fakaafeʻi ha tokotaha ako ke lau leʻolahi ʻa e Siosefa Sāmita—Mātiu 1:4. Kole ki he kalasí ke muimui ki ai, ʻo fekumi ki he fehuʻi ʻe ua ne ʻeke ʻe he kau ākongá kia Sīsū ʻi he Moʻunga ʻo e ʻŌlivé. Fakaafeʻi ha tokotaha ako ke lipooti ʻa e meʻa ne nau ʻiló, pea hiki ʻa e ngaahi fehuʻi ko ʻení ʻi he palakipoé:

  1. ʻE fakaʻauha fakakū nai ʻa Selusalemá pea mo e temipalé?

  2. Ko e hā e fakaʻilonga ʻo e Hāʻele ʻAngaua Mai ʻa Sīsū Kalaisí pea mo hono fakaʻauha ʻo e kau fai angahalá?

Fakamatalaʻi ange naʻe fakahoko ʻe Sīsū Kalaisi ʻa e ʻuluaki fehuʻí ʻi he veesi 5–21, pea ko e tali ʻo e fehuʻi fika uá ʻoku maʻu ʻi he veesi 21–55. Vahevahe tautau toko ua e kau akó. Fakahinohinoʻi kinautolu ke nau lau leʻolahi mo honau hoá ʻa e Siosefa Sāmita—Mātiu 1:5-12, pea kumi e ngaahi fakaʻilonga naʻe fekauʻaki mo hono fakaʻauha ʻo Selusalema mo e temipalé. Kole ki he kau akó ke lipooti e meʻa ʻoku nau maʻú.

  • Ko e hā e tefitoʻi moʻoni te tau lava ʻo ako mei he veesi 11? (ʻE lava ke fakaʻaongaʻi ʻe he kau akó ha ngaahi lea kehe, ka ʻoku totonu ke nau fakatokangaʻi e tefitoʻi moʻoni ko ʻení: Kapau te tau tuʻumaʻu pea ʻikai vaivai, ʻe fakamoʻui leva kitautolu. ʻI hono fakaʻaongaʻi e ngaahi lea ʻa e kau akó, tohi ʻa e tefitoʻi moʻoni ko ʻení ʻi he palakipoé.

Naʻe fakaʻauha ʻa e temipalé, pea naʻe ʻikai ha foʻi maka ʻe toe ʻi ha funga maka kehe— ʻo hangē ko ia naʻe kikiteʻi ʻe he Fakamoʻuí (vakai, Mātiu 24:2). Neongo ia, naʻe hola ʻa kinautolu ne tokanga ki he fakatokanga ʻa Sīsuú ʻo malu ki Pela, ko ha kolo naʻe meimei maile ʻe 50 ki he tokelau hahake ʻo Selusalemá (vakai, Bible Dictionary, “Pella”).

Siosefa Sāmita—Mātiu 1:21–37

Naʻe kikiteʻi ʻe Sīsū e ngaahi fakaʻilonga ʻo ʻEne Hāʻele ʻAngaua Maí.

Fakamatalaʻi ange naʻe ʻikai ngata pē hono fakamatalaʻi ʻo e ngaahi fakaʻilongá ko ha fakatokanga ki hono fakaʻauha ʻo Selusalemá, naʻe tali ʻe he Fakamoʻuí ʻa e fehuʻi hono uá ʻo ʻEne kau ākongá ʻaki ʻEne kikiteʻi e ngaahi fakaʻilonga ʻo kau ki Heʻene Hāʻele ʻAngaua Maí.

“Hili ha ngaahi taʻu, naʻe haʻu ha taha ʻo e kau faifekau lelei ne ngāue fakataha mo au ʻi he taimi ne u hoko ai ko ha palesiteni fakamisiona ʻi Tolonitoó [Kānata] ʻo ʻaʻahi mai kiate au. Naʻá ku fehuʻi ange, ‘ʻEletā, ko e hā ha meʻa te u tokoni atu ai?’

Fakaafeʻi ha tokotaha ke hoko atu hono lau e fakamatala ʻa ʻEletā Pālati:

“Naʻá ku ʻeke ange pe ko e hā ʻene ngaahi fehuʻí, peá ne fakahā mai.

Ngaahi Fakamatala Fakamahino mo e Puipuituʻá

Siosefa Sāmita—Mātiu 1:11. “Ka ko ia ia ʻe tuʻu maʻu ʻo ʻikai vaivaí”

Naʻe fakamatalaʻi ʻe ʻEletā Tēvita A. Petinā ʻo e Kōlomu ʻo e Kau ʻAposetolo ʻe Toko Hongofulu Mā Uá ʻa e ʻuhinga ʻo e pehē tuʻu maʻú:

“ʻOku ngāue ʻaki ʻa e foʻi lea ‘tuʻu maʻu’ ke fokotuʻu mai ha tuʻunga pau, mālohi mo tuʻu maʻu, taʻeueʻia mo pau (Oxford English Dictionary Online, 2nd ed.

Siosefa Sāmita—Mātiu 1:22. “ʻE tuʻu hake foki ʻa e kau Kalaisi loí, mo e kau palōfita loí”

ʻOku ʻuhinga ʻa e foʻi lea “kau Kalaisi loi” mo e “kau palōfita loí” ki ha taha pē — ʻi loto pe ʻi tuʻa ʻi he Siasí — ʻokú ne pehē ʻoku lea maʻae ʻEikí taʻe ʻi ai ha mafai pe ʻokú ne poupouʻi ʻa e ngaahi akonaki ʻoku fehangahangai mo e ngaahi lea ʻa e kau palōfita moʻuí. ʻE lava foki ke hoko e founga hala ʻo e lotú ko ha Kalaisi loi (vakai, Bruce R.
