Isabatha

Usuku lweSabatha lungcwele kwiNkosi, ngokweMthetho wesine. Kwi-Eksodus 20:8 sifunda:

Eksodus 20:8-11 "Khumbula usuku lweSabatha, ulugcine lungcwele. 9 Iintsuku ezintandathu uze usebenze, wenze yonke imisebenzi yakho; 10 kodwa usuku lwesixhenxe lusuku lwesabatha lweNkosi uThixo wakho; ngalo akukho nto imbi uya kuyenza, wena, okanye unyana wakho, okanye intombi yakho, umkhonzi wakho, okanye intombi yakho, okanye izinkomo zakho, okanye umhlali ongumhlobo ongaphakathi ezangweni zakho; 11 kuba iintsuku ezintandathu iNkosi yenza izulu nomhlaba, ulwandle, nayo yonke into ekuyo, yaza yaphumla ngosuku lwesixhenxe; ngoko ke iNkosi yasikelela usuku lwesabatha yayingcwalisile. (RSV)

Oku kungenxa yokuba bonke baphumle (Duteronomi 5:14).

Isiphakamiso 1: Kufuneka usebenze iintsuku ezintandathu ngeveki

Akufuneki siphelelwe lixesha. Nantoni na izandla zethu eziyifumana zisenza, siyenze ngamandla ethu onke (Umlingo 9:10). Kuba into esiyityalayo, siyayivuna (Gal. 6:7). Kwakhona nikeleni inkonzo njengobulalwana kubazalwana, ingakumbi kwabo bangabantu abangaphandle (3Yoh. 5-7).

Usuku lwesixhenxe yiSabatha

Ibalwa njengeMgqibelo ukusukela ekudalweni. Iqatshelwa zizo zonke iintlanga njengeSabatha kwaye ifika ngoMgqibelo wekhalenda yangoku. Usuku lwesixhenxe lukwisijikelezo esiqhubekayo kwaye alunakwabelwa olunye usuku. Ngaloo ndlela ikhalenda yehlabathi entsha ecetywayo ihlasela kanye isizathu soMthetho. Yiyo loo nto inkqubo yamaRoma iye yachasa ngokuqhubekayo ukugcinwa kweSabatha, njengoko sibona kuxwebhu oluthi General Distribution of the Sabbath-keeping Churches (No. 122) (jonga kwakhona Indima yoMthetho wesine kwiicawa zembali ezigcina iSabatha zikaThixo (No. 170)).

Isiphakamiso 2: Akukho msebenzi oza kwenziwa ngeSabatha

Akukho mntu okanye iqela loluntu eliphantsi kolawulo lwamaSirayeli oza kusebenza ngeSabatha. uMthetho kufuneka ugcinwe ngabo bonke abaseSirayeli – umhlali ongengowalapha kunye nomSirayeli ngokufanayo. UNehamya unika umzekelo womsebenzi ngeSabatha.

Nehemia 10:28-31 Abanye abantu, ababingeleli, amaLevi, abalindi bomnyango, abaculi, abakhonzi betempile, nabo bonke abazahlulileyo ebantwini bamazwe ukuya kumthetho kaThixo, abafazi babo, oonyana babo, iintombi zabo, bonke abanohlobo nolwazi, 29 bazimanye nabazalwana babo, nezikhulu zabo, bangenele isiqalekiso nesifungo sokuhamba ngomthetho kaThixo owamanyelwa nguMoses umkhonzi kaThixo, nokugcina nokwenza yonke imiyalelo yeNkosi uYehova uThixo wethu nemithetho yakhe nemimiselo yakhe. 30 Asiyi kunika iintombi zethu kubantu belizwe, okanye sithathe iintombi zabo koonyana bethu; 31 kwaye ukuba abantu belizwe benza urhwebo nazo naziphi na iimvuno okanye nayiphi na ingqolowa ngosuku lwesabatha ukuze bathengise, asiyi kuthenga kubo ngesabatha okanye ngosuku olungcwele; kwaye asiyi kuyivuna imivuno yonyaka wesixhenxe nokufuna nayiphi na imali-mboleko. (RSV)

ISabatha ke ngoko iqondwa njengomelwe lwenkqubo eyodwa yabantu bakaThixo. Iyasasazeka kubo bonke abaphantsi kwayo kwaye akukho kurhweba okunokwenzeka ngeSabatha okanye ngoSuku oluNgcwele nanini na nomntu, nokuba ngumntu wasebantwini okanye ngumHleli (izizwe).

ISabatha luphawu okanye isitampu (Eks. 20:8,10,11; Duteronomi 5:12) phakathi kwethu noThixo, owenza siyingcwele (Eks. 31:12-14; IiSabatha, zikwisininzi, apha luluphawu). Olu phawu lwandiselwa nakwiMihla eNgcwele ukusukela kwiPasika (Eks. 13:9,16) neSinkwa Esingenyevenge, oluphawu loMthetho weNkosi (Dut. 6:8) nolokuhlawulela kwayo uSirayeli (Dut. 6:10), oluthi ngoKrestu, lufikelele nakwabo banoKrestu (Roma 9:6; 11:25-26). La mqondiso yeyokukhusela uSirayeli kwinkonzo-zithixo (Duteronomi 11:16), engumqondiso nezitywina zabakhethiweyo beNkosi (ISityhilelo 7:3).

Inkokeli yenye yeCawa kaThixo kwinkulungwane yamashumi amabini yaphika ukuba uMgqibelo ngumqadi. Oko kwasusa ngokupheleleyo umqadi kaThixo kuloo Cawa kwaza kwabekwa kumalungu ngabanye. Lo mntu mnye wathi wayelilinganisa iTempile kaThixo ngokweSityhilelo 11:1, xa wafika e-Australia ngo-1987. Ukulinganiswa kweTempile ngokwenene kwenziwa ziimposi. Noko ke, ukuba ubulungisa bethu abugqithi obo babaScribes nabaFarisi, asiyi kulifa uBukumkani bukaThixo (Mat. 5:20), kuba bona ngumgangatho wokulinganisa (jonga iphepha elithi Ukulinganisa iTempile (No. 137)).

Hezekile 20:12-13,16,20-21,24 ibonisa oko uThixo wakuthethayo ngeSabatha Zakhe:

Hezekile 20:12-13 Ndikwanika neesabatha zam, ibe luphawu phakathi kwam nako, ukuze bazi ukuba ndim iNkosi endibanga bangcwele. 13 Kodwa indlu yakwaSirayeli yaphikisa kum entlango; abazange bahambe kwimithetho yam, yaye balikhanyele imimiselo yam, ekumiselweni kwayo umntu aphile; nezabatha zam bazingcolisa kakhulu. "Ndaza ndacinga ukuba ndingachitheza umsindo wam kubo entlango, ndibatshabalalise.

Hezekile 20:16 kuba balahlile imithetho yam yaye abahambanga kwimigaqo yam, baza bahlazisa iSabatha zam; kuba intliziyo yabo yayisele emva kwezithixo zazo.

Hezekile 20:20-21 nize nazingcele izabatha zam, ukuze zibe luphawu phakathi kwam nani, nize nazi ukuba ndim iNkosi, uYehova, ndinguThixo wenu. 21 Kodwa abantwana baphambukela kum; abahambanga ngemithetho yam, yaye abakhathalelanga ukugcina imimiselo yam, umntu aphile ngayo; bazingcele izabatha zam. "Ndiye ndacinga ukugalela umsindo wam kubo, ndichithe intukuthelo yam kubo entlango.

Hezekile 20:24 ngenxa yokuba abazigcini imithetho yam, kodwa baye bayichitha imigaqo yam, baze bahlazise iSabatha zam, kwaye amehlo abo aye ajonge kwizithixo zakho otata babo. (RSV)

Esi sisifaniso sentlango yesono, emva kweMesia ka-Aron. Senziwa ukuba sihamba kwinyathelo leMesia neNkulungwane ngentlango yesono. ISabatha luphawu lokunyaniseka kwethu kunye nokuhlangulwa kwethu kwiSabatha yokuphumla kaThixo. Sisisikhumbuzo seveki ngeveki sokuba uThixo uthembisa ukuba uya kuthumela iMesia aze ahlangule le planethi ngomkhonto. I-Millennium yiSibhakabhaka seSabatha sikaThixo. Ukushiya iSabatha kukushiya ithemba likaThixo.

Esi sisizathu sokuba sihlukunyezwe ngenxa yokugcina iiSabatha zikaYehova.Nabani na ongcolisa iSabatha uya kubulawa (Eks. 31:14; Num. 32:36). Olu olohlwayo lubhekisa ekulahlekelweni bubomi obungunaphakade obanikwa abakhethiweyo. Bayangezelwa phakathi kwabantu babo (kukho kwakhona), beqatshelwe ubomi obungunaphakade. Luluphawu phakathi kukaThixo nabantwana bakaSirayeli ngonaphakade (Eks. 31:17).

Amalungiselelo eSabatha kufuneka enziwe ngosuku olungaphambili (Eks. 16:5). Ukutya kufuneka kuqokelelwe kwaye kulungiswe ngokomzekelo wemanna. Indoda nganye yayifanele ihlale endaweni yayo (Eks. 16:29-30). Kufuneka baphumle ngexesha lokuvuna nangexesha lesivuno ngoMgqibelo (Eks. 34:21; cf. iphepha iJuma'ah: Ukulungiselela uMgqibelo (No. 285)).

Ngoko ke isenzo seNkosi sokukhetha iintloko zengqolowa ngeSabatha sathukuthelwa. INkosi, nangona kunjalo, yabonisa ukuba inguNkosi yeSabatha, kungekhona ngenjongo yokuba akufuneki igcinwe, kodwa endaweni yoko ngendlela eyayigcinwa ngayo. Kulo mbhalo, kuvumelekile ukukhetha ukutya okwaneleyo ukuze kutyiwe ngeSabatha, kwaye nakwiMthetho weTestamente (Mat. 12:1-12).

Mateyu 12:1-12 Ngelo xesha uYesu wayedlula emasimini embona ngeSabatha; abafundi bakhe babelambile, baza baqala ukukhepha iintloko zembona bezitya. 2 Kodwa abafarisi, bakubona oko, bathi kuye, "Bona, abafundi bakho benza into engavumelekanga ukuba yenziwe ngeSabatha." 3 Wathi kubo, "Anikaze nifunde na into eyenziwa nguDavide, xa wayelambile, kunye nabo babenawe: 4 ukuba wangena njani endlwini kaThixo waza wasitya isonka seBubonakalali, esasingekho ngokomthetho ukuba asitye yena, nabo babenawe, kodwa ngoababingeleli bodwa?" 5 Okanye anizifundanga na emthethweni, ukuba ngoMgqibelo ababingeleli etempileni bayawuhlazisa uMgqibelo, kwaye bangenatyala? 6 Nithi, nanko umntu ongaphezu kwetempile apha. 7 Kwaye ukuba beniyazi ukuba kuthetha ntoni oku, 'Uthanda uvelwano, hayi amadini,' beningayi kugweba abangenatyala. 8 Kuba uNyana woMntu unengosi yoMgqibelo." 9 Waphuma apho, wangena kwindlu yabo yomthendeleko. 10 Nanko, kwakukho indoda enesandla esomileyo. Bamba buhlungu kuye, "Ngaba kuvumelekile ukuphilisa ngesabatha?" ukuze bamangalele. 11 Wathi kubo, "Ngubani umntu kuni, ukuba unegusha elinye, lize liwe emgodini ngesabatha, angayi kulibamba aliphakamise? 12 Umntu uxabiseke kangakanani na kunengwevu! Ngoko ke, kuvumelekile ukwenza okulungileyo ngeSabatha." (RSV)

(Oku kukwabhekisa ku-1 Sam. 21:6 apho uDavide wadla isonka esingcwele: Eks. 25:30; Lev. 24:5-8.)

Ngokukodwa, ababingeleli eTempileni bayangcolisa iSabatha (bayenza ibe yinto eqhelekileyo) kwaye abanakusolwa (Mat. 12:5; cf. Num. 28:9-10; bona kwakhona Neh. 13:7; Ezek. 24:21; Jn. 7:22-23). Ngaloo ndlela umsebenzi wethu ngeSabatha njengabantu abakhethiweyo kunqulo lukaThixo awunakusolwa. Enyanisweni, kwakukho amadini amaninzi awayenziwa ngeSabatha kunango nayiphi na enye imini.

ILevitiki 26:34 ifuna ukuba iSabatha zandiswe ziye kwiJubhile nakwiinkqubo zomhlaba. Ngenxa yokuba umhlaba wawungaphumli ngelo xesha, iNkosi iza kuthumela iintlanga ekuthinjweni ukuze zibuyisele iSabatha zokuphumla.

Umyalelo othi akukho mntu mayivuthe umlilo kuzo zonke iindawo zenu zokuhlala ubhekisa kwiimbiza zomlilo okanye iindawo zokubasa umlilo wentsimbi, hayi kwizixhobo zasekhaya zombane (Eks. 35:3). Ngokucacileyo, eTempileni kwakukho amadini angapheliyo, kwaye abantu babesoloko bevutha imililo. Ukuba sijonga emva kwiimbhalo zantlandlolo, ngokwendlela ezazisetyenziswa ngayo xa iMithetho yayinikwa, lo myalelo wawujongene nemiba yokwakha. Akukho msebenzi wokwakha okanye wokubumba ngomlilo okumele wenziwe ngosuku lweSabatha.

IiSabatha zidityaniswe noloyiko lweNkosi nentlonipho yeNdawo yaKhe Engcwele (Levitikus 19:30), esingabantu bayo. Usuku lweSabatha lwenziwa ngoko ke lwabantu ukuze iNdawo Engcwele yeNkosi yenziwe ingcwele kwaye ibe yindawo efanelekileyo yokuhlala kaThixo. Ngokufanayo, iSabatha idityaniswe nentlonipho kanina notata (Lev. 19:3). ImiSitho ngokwayo yindibano ezingcwele njengeSabatha, kwaye akukho msebenzi kufuneka wenziwe kuzo. Usuku Loxolelo lunezohlwayo ezifanayo nezeSabatha, oko kukuthi, ukunqunyulwa kwabantu baseSirayeli (Lev. 23:29-30). Umbingelelo womlilo kufuneka wenziwe rhoqo ngeSabatha ngababingeleli egameni labantu bakaSirayeli ngonaphakade (Lev. 24:8). Lo mbingelelo yeyona miyalelo kubakhethiweyo yokunika umthandazo nombulelo phambi koYehova rhoqo ngeSabatha. Ngenxa yoko, siyayalelwa ukuba sinike umbingelelo sihlangene. Ngaphezu koko, kwesi sibhalo sikaLevitikus 24:1-4, ababingeleli bafanele bagcine izibane zizaliswe nge-oli ecocekileyo evela kwii-oliva ezityunyuziweyo.

Ubupriste kufuneka bulungise izibane. Ngaloo ndlela, ulungiselelo lwabakhethiweyo luxanduva lwemihla ngemihla, kwaye i-oli yezibane zamakhosikazi kufuneka igcinwe imihla ngemihla ukusuka kuMgqibelo ukuya kuMgqibelo. Bayalelwe ukuba bangcwalise iiSabatha zikaThixo (Hezekile 44:24).

Nehemia 13:15 Ngezo ntsuku ndabona amadoda eYuda ekuhla iidiliya ngesabatha, ezisa imivumbo yengqolowa kwaye beyilayisha kwiindlovu; ... (RSV)

Nehemia 13:19 Yathi, xa kwaba sele kusiba mnyama ezangweni zaseYerusalem phambi kweSabatha, ndayalela ukuba zivalwe iingcango, ndaza ndayalela ukuba mazingavulwa de kuphele iSabatha. Ndayimisela abanye bamakhoboka am ezangweni, ukuze kungangeni mthwalo ngemini yeSabatha. (RSV)

Abathengisi nabaxhweli bahlala ngaphandle kweYerusalem kanye okanye kabini, kodwa uNehemiya akazange anikezele. Xa sikwazi ukunqanda ukusebenza okanye ukungasebenzi ngeSabatha okanye ukungathengi okanye ukungathengisi, kufuneka senjenjalo kwaye kufuneka silwe nayo nayiphi na inkcaso. Asinakuthenga ngeeNtsuku eziNgcwele, okanye siyokutyela kwiivenkile zokutyela ngeeSabatha nangeeNtsuku eziNgcwele.

Ukukhululeka okungena kwiCawa zikaThixo malunga neSabatha kuvela ekwakhiweni kweholo yezithethe ePasadena, eUnited States, ngeSabatha. Ukwakhiwa kwesi sakhiwo kwenziwa ngesizathu sokuba kwakungenakunqandwa. Loo nto bubuxoki. Olu lwakhiwo lwalusemagumbini ethu, kwaye isiganeko salo saqalisa ukonakalisa umgaqo wokuphumla ngeSabatha kwizicaka zabantu baseSirayeli nakwizihambi zabo.

UNehamya wayalela ukuba nabantu abangaphandle babugcine uMbindi. Ungumzekelo wethu ngendlela uMthetho omele ukugcinwa ngayo. Nehemia 13:22 ibonisa ukuba luxanduva lwobungaka beNkosi – ubungaka obutsha babakhethiweyo – ukuzihlambulula nokugcina iikhowu, ukungcwalisela uMbindi.

UKristu naye wanika umyalelo ngokuphathelele ekuphilisweni kwabagulayo. Oku kufanele kwenziwe ngoMgqibelo. Ngoko ke, kuvumelekile ukuphilisa nokutyisa abagulayo nabakhubazekileyo ngoMgqibelo.

Isifundo senkomo esemseleni sesezimo ezingxamisekileyo. Akwanelanga ukwenza into ngokwemikhwa ekufanele ukuba icwangciswe kwangaphambili. ULuka 14:5 ibonisa ukuba kubalulekile ukujongana neemeko ezingxamisekileyo ngoMgqibelo. Oku, eneneni, kwakuphathelele kwingqikelelo yokuphilisa ngoMgqibelo. Ukhathalelo olufanelekileyo nolungiselelo lwabagulayo nabathwaxwe yimicimbi ngoMgqibelo yimiba ebalulekileyo. Ukuba umntu angatyi yedwa ngoMgqibelo kuyasihlazisa kwaye akukuhloniphi. Abantu abazithandani kwaye abakulungiseleli uMgqibelo ukuze banike abazalwana babo eyona ncedo inkulu.

INdumiso 118:24 Lo lusuku olwenzileyo iNkosi; siza kuvuya, sibe nenoba kulo. (KJV)

IiSabatha kufuneka zigcinwe kubumsulwa bokomoya (Isaya 1:13). Akufuneki ingcoliswe (Isaya 56:2,4-7).

Isaya 56:2 Ulisikelelekile umntu ozenzayo le nto, nendodana yomntu ebambelela kuyo; ogcina isabatha ukuba ingangcoliswa, agcine isandla sakhe ukuba singenzi bubi. (KJV)

Isaya 56:4-7 Kuba itsho le nto uYehova koonongqibi abagcina iSabatha zam, bakhethe izinto ezindithandayo, babambelele kwisivumelwano sam; 5 Nabo ndiya kubanika endlwini yam naseludongeni lwam indawo negama elingcono kunelo laonyana neentombi; ndiya kubanika igama elingunaphakade, elingayi kunqanyulwa. 6 Kananjalo oonyana bomntu wasemzini, abazibophelela eNkosini, ukuba bamkhonze, bathande igama leNkosi, babe ngabakhonzayo bayo, wonke umntu ogcina isabatha engayinyeli, abambelele kwisivumelwano sam; 7 Nabo ndiya kubazisa entabeni yam engcwele, ndibavuyise endlwini yam yokuthandaza: amadini abo okutshiswayo nemibingelelo yabo iya kwamkelwa phezu kwaltari yam; kuba indlu yam iya kubizwa ngokuba yindlu yokuthandaza yabo bonke abantu. (KJV)

ISabatha yinto yokuvuyiswa, hayi usuku lokuzila (Isaya 58:13-14). ISabatha iya kugcinwa ngabo bonke abantu xa beza kunqula phambi koYehova; ukusukela kwinyanga entsha ukuya kwenye, nokusukela kwisabatha ukuya kwenye (Isaya 66:23). Akukho mthwalo onokuthwalwa ngeSabatha, kwaye akufuneki uziswe eYerusalem (Yer. 17:21). Ngoko ke, simele sikuvuyele uSabatha size sizise uvuyo kuNdlu kaThixo. Akufunekanga siphume nesisithwalo ezindlwini zethu ngoMgqibelo (Jer. 17:22). Ngoko ke, ukusebenza kwipropathi yomntu nakho akuvumelekanga ngoMgqibelo. Kufuneka uhlaliswe ungcwele (ibid.).

UMgqibelo ngumqathango welifa lobukumkani bakwaSirayeli ukuba akukho sisithwalo siziswa ngeenqila zesixeko. Iinkosi namakhosi ziya kuhlala kwitrone kaDavide. Noko ke, ukuba esi silumkiso asihoywanga, isixeko siya kutshiswa ngomlilo (Yer. 17:27). Ngaloo ndlela abantu abangakholwayo baya kucasa iziSabatha ngosuku lwesidubedube salo (ukuwa, IiL. 1:7, RSV). Ngaloo ndlela iSabatha isiba luphawu kwaye ingumthombo wokuthukwa kwabo basendlwini kaThixo xa bekwimihlaba.Ukunqula nokukhonza kuya kuthwala intlantsi yomsindo wakhe ngenxa yokungcwaliswa kweSabatha (IiMb. 2:6).

IiSabatha zezokuvuya nokuchulumacha; kodwa, njengesohlwayo, uvuyo lweeSabatha luyasuswa (Hos. 2:11). Kufuneka kugcinwe isimo sengqondo esifanelekileyo ngeSabatha. Akufunekanga kujongwe ukuphela kwayo ukuze kuqalwe umsebenzi, kuba oko kuqhagamshela kwisimo sokunyaniseka, ukuzincama nokupha (Amos 8:5).

UKristu wayemkhulu kunetempile njengoko thina simkhulu kunetempile yenyama. Siyitempile kwaye iSabatha yenziwa ngenxa yethu (Mk. 2:27); ngoko ke nathi kufuneka siyigcine iSabatha njengamalungiselelo ekhaya ekufuneka sibe lilo kuThixo.

Kufuneka sihlale sizazi ukwenza okulungileyo nokuphilisa izifo zabo bonke (Lk. 13:10-16). Akufanelanga, nangaphantsi kweemeko ezithini na, sibukelane ukuze sigwebe ngento elungileyo esiyenzela omnye ngomnye ngoMgqibelo (Lk. 14:1-6; Col. 2:16).

ULuka 23:54 ubonisa ukuba kufuneka sizilungiselele iSabatha. Kufuneka sicinge kwangaphambili size senze okulungileyo omnye komnye. Kufuneka sibonise ukuba siyayithanda omnye komnye njengoko uKristu esithanda, size sikhule elukholweni, njengoko sonke siphiliswayo (Lk. 5:5-14).

Njengokuba kuvumelekile ukusoka ngeSabatha, ngokunjalo kuvumelekile ukusoka iintliziyo zethu ngokunikela nangamandla oMoya. Kufuneka sigwebe omnye komnye ngogwebo olulungileyo ngokwezinto ezilungileyo esizenzayo ngeSabatha (Yoh. 7:21-24). Kukho amaYuda namaHentile abizelwe eNdlu kaThixo ukuze bamamele iintshumayelo zeSabatha (IZenzo 13:42; 18:4).

Sisihlwele esincinci esisebenza kunye phantsi kwengcinezelo. Kuye kwenziwa iinzame ezingapheliyo zokusitshabalalisa, njengoko siza kubona kuxwebhu i-General Distribution of the Sabbath-keeping Churches (No. 122). Kufuneka sibambelele kwiSabatha. Ukuba sinabo abawela, nkqu nakwizikhundla eziphezulu zabakhonzi bethu, akusityholi sonke ngasinye kuthi ekwenzeni ngokufanelekileyo iimbopheleleko zethu kuThixo ngesabatha (thelekisa nempapasho ethi Umthetho neMiyalelo yesine (No. 256)).
