Yerusalemu n’Urusengero rwa Salomo

YERUSALEMU yitwaga umurwa w’“ubwiza butagira inenge” n’‘ururembo rw’Umwami ukomeye’ (Zb 48:3; 50:2; Amg 2:15). Ni yo yari umurwa mukuru w’ubwoko bw’Imana (Zb 76:3). Dawidi amaze kwambura uwo murwa Abayebusi, yawuhinduye umurwa we mukuru, witwa “ururembo rwa Dawidi,” cyangwa se “Siyoni.”​—⁠2Sm 5:⁠7.

Nubwo ahantu Yerusalemu yari yubatse hatari heza cyane, icyatumye yamamara cyane ni uko Imana yahashyize izina ryayo (Gut 26:2). Ni ho hari icyicaro cy’ubutegetsi kandi ni na ho ishyanga ryose ryaherwaga amabwiriza mu by’idini.

Yerusalemu iri ku butumburuke bwa metero 750, mu misozi y’i Yudaya rwagati. Bibiliya ivuga ko Yerusalemu yari yubatse ahantu ‘harehare,’ kandi ko abasenga Yehova bageragayo babanje ‘kuzamuka’ (Zb 48:3; 122:3, 4). Yerusalemu ya kera yari ikikijwe n’ibibaya hamwe n’ibikombe: iburengerazuba no mu majyepfo hari Igikombe cya Mwene Hinomu, naho iburasirazuba hakaba igikombe cya Kidironi (2Abm 23:10; Yr 31:40). Abo mu murwa bavomaga amazi afutse ku isoko ya Gihonia yari mu Gikombe cya Kidironi n’iya Enirogeli yari mu majyepfo y’umurwa, ayo masoko yombi akaba yari ingirakamaro, cyane cyane iyo babaga batewe.​—⁠2Sm 17:⁠17.

Ku ishusho yo ku ipaji ya 21, Ururembo rwa Dawidi rugaragara mu ibara ritukura. Mu gihe cy’ubwami bwa Dawidi n’ubwa Salomo, umurwa wagutse ugana mu majyaruguru, ufata Ofeli (ibara ry’icyatsi) n’Umusozi wa Moriya (ibara ry’ubururu) (2Sm 5:7-9; 24:16-25). Mu mpinga z’uwo musozi ni ho Salomo yaje kubakira Yehova urusengero rwiza cyane. Ngaho gerageza gusa n’ureba imbaga y’abagize ubwoko bwa Yehova bazamuka “umusozi w’Uwiteka” ku minsi mikuru ya buri mwaka (Zk 8:3)! Imihanda igaragara ku ishusho yo ku ipaji ya 17 yaboroherezaga izo ngendo zabo.

Urusengero Salomo yubatse rwari rutatse zahabu n’andi mabuye y’agaciro, ni imwe mu mazu ahenze yabayeho ku isi. Igishishikaje ni uko Yehova ubwe ari we wamuhaye igishushanyo mbonera yakurikije arwubaka. Nk’uko ubibona kuri iyo shusho, mu mpande z’urusengero hari ingo ngari hamwe n’amazu abatware bakoreragamo. Gufata akanya ko gukora ubushakashatsi ku byari bigize urusengero si imfabusa rwose.​—⁠1Abm 6:1–7:51; 1Ngo 28:11-19; Hb 9:23, 24.

[Agasanduku ko ku ipaji ya 21]

Nyuma y’igihe, Yerusalemu yaje kwaguka igana iburengerazuba no mu majyaruguru. Abami b’Abayahudi ba nyuma ya Salomo bongereye inkuta n’amarembo. Ubushakashatsi bukorwa ku byataburuwe mu matongo bushobora kuzadufasha gusobanukirwa neza aho inkuta zimwe na zimwe zanyuraga n’uko zareshyaga. Yerusalemu yaje kurimburwa mu mwaka wa 607 M.I.C., hanyuma iza kumara imyaka 70 ari umusaka. Igihe Abayahudi bari bamaze imyaka igera kuri 80 basubiye mu gihugu cyabo, Nehemiya yatangije gahunda ndende yo gusana inkike za Yerusalemu.
