“Yankhongono mu . . . Mazgu”

8. Kasi Yesu wakapika nkhongono za kuchita vichi wakati waphakazgika, ndipo wakagwiliskira wuli ntchito nkhongono zake?

⁸ Kwambura kukayika, Yesu wakachitapo munthondwe uliwose yayi apo wakaŵa musepuka mu Nazareti. Kweni vinthu vikasintha wakati wabatizika mu 29 C.E., apo wakaŵa na vyaka pafupifupi 30. (Luka 3:21-23) Baibolo likutiphalira kuti: “Chiuta wakamuphakazga na mzimu utuŵa na nkhongono, ndipo wakendendeka mu charu kuchita uwemi na kuchizga wose awo ŵakayuzgikanga na Dyabulosi.” (Milimo 10:38) Kasi mazgu ghakuti “kuchita uwemi,” ghakulongora yayi kuti Yesu wakagwiliskiranga ntchito nkhongono zake mwakwenelera? Wakati waphakazgika, Yesu “wakaŵa ntchimi yankhongono mu milimo na mazgu.”—Luka 24:19.

9-11. (a) Kasi nyengo zinandi Yesu wakasambizganga nkhu, ndipo ni suzgo wuli ilo wakakumananga nalo? (b) Chifukwa wuli mizinda yikazizwanga na umo Yesu wakasambizgiranga?

⁹ Kasi Yesu wakaŵa wankhongono mu mazgu munthowa wuli? Nyengo zinandi wakasambizganga pakweru, mu mphepete mwa nyanja na mapiri kweniso mu nthowa na mu misika. (Mariko 6:53-56; Luka 5:1-3; 13:26) Ivyo wakasambizganga viŵenge vyambura kukhorweska mphanyi ŵategherezgi ŵake ŵakafumangapo. Pa nyengo iyo mabuku ghakaŵa kuti ghandambe kulembeka, ŵategherezgi ŵakeneranga kusunga mazgu ghake mu maghanoghano na mitima yawo. Ntheura visambizgo vya Yesu vikeneranga kuŵa vyakukopa chomene, vyakupulikikwa makora, na vyambura kusuzga kukumbukira. Kweni iyi yikaŵa suzgo yayi kwa Yesu. Mwachiyelezgero, ghanaghanirani Upharazgi wake wa pa Phiri.

¹⁰ Mulenji unyake kukwambilira kwa chaka cha 31 C.E., wumba ukawungana mu mphepete mwa phiri pafupi na nyanja ya Galileya. Ŵanyake ŵakafuma ku Yudeya na ku Yerusalemu, mtunda wa makilomita 100 panji 110. Ŵanyake ŵakafuma mu mphepete mwa nyanja ku Ture na Sidoni, kumpoto. Ŵanthu ŵanandi ŵalwari ŵakasendelera kwa Yesu kuti ŵamukhwaske, ndipo wose wakaŵachizga. Wakati wamara kuchizga wose awo ŵakaŵa ŵalwari chomene, wakamba kuŵasambizga. (Luka 6:17-19) Wakati wamara kuyowoya, ŵakazizwa na ivyo ŵakapulika. Chifukwa wuli?

¹¹ Vyaka vikati vyajumphapo, yumoza wa awo ŵakapulika upharazgi uwu wakalemba kuti: “mizinda yikazizikika na kasambizgiro kake, pakuti wakaŵasambizganga nga ni munthu uyo wali na mazaza.” (Mateyu 7:28, 29) Yesu wakayowoyanga mwamazaza nakuti wakaŵafikanga pa mtima ŵategherezgi ŵake. Wakayowoyanga ivyo Chiuta wakamutuma ndipo wakakhozgeranga visambizgo vyake na Mazgu gha Chiuta. (Yohane 7:16) Ivyo Yesu wakayowoyanga vikapulikikwanga makora, vikaŵa vyakukopa kweniso vyambura kususkika. Wakayowoyanga iyo ni fundo ya nkhani na kufika pa mtima ŵategherezgi ŵake. Wakaŵasambizganga umo ŵangasangira chimwemwe, umo ŵangalombera, umo ŵangapenjera Ufumu wa Chiuta na ivyo ŵangachita kuti ŵazakaŵe na munthazi muwemi. (Mateyu 5:3–7:27) Mazgu ghake ghakakhwaska awo ŵakaŵa na njara ya unenesko na urunji. Ŵanthu nga aŵa ŵakaŵa ŵakukhumbisiska ‘kujipata’ na kuleka chilichose mwakuti ŵamulondezge. (Mateyu 16:24; Luka 5:10, 11) Uwu mbukaboni wakuti mazgu gha Yesu ghakaŵa ghankhongono!

“Yankhongono mu Milimo”

12, 13. Kasi Yesu wakaŵa “wankhongono mu milimo” munthowa wuli, ndipo ni minthondwe wuli yakupambanapambana iyo wakachitanga?

¹² Yesu wakaŵaso ntchimi “yankhongono mu milimo.” (Luka 24:19) Mabuku gha Mateyu, Mariko, Luka na Yohane ghakulongosora minthondwe yakujumpha 30 iyo Yesu wakachita na “nkhongono za Yehova.”b (Luka 5:17) Minthondwe ya Yesu yikakhwaska ŵanthu ŵanandi. Wonani minthondwe yiŵiri iyo Yesu wakachita, wakaryeska ŵanalume 5,000, ndipo pamanyuma ŵanalume 4,000. Ŵanthu wose awo ŵakaryeskeka pa minthondwe iyi, ŵakaŵa ŵanandi chomene usange tingasazgako ŵana na ŵanakazi .—Mateyu 14:13-21; 15:32-38.

¹³ Yesu wakachitanga minthondwe yakupambanapambana. Wakaŵa na mazaza pa mizimu yiheni, wakayifumiskanga kwambura suzgo. (Luka 9:37-43) Wakaŵa na mazaza pa vinthu vya chilengiwa, wakapangiska maji kuzgoka vinyo. (Yohane 2:1-11) Ghanaghanirani waka umo ŵasambiri ŵakwenera kuti ŵakazizwira kuwona “Yesu wakwenda pa nyanja.” (Yohane 6:18, 19) Wakaŵa na nkhongono pa matenda, wakachizganga ŵanthu ŵakupendera, awo ŵakalwara kwa nyengo yitali, na matenda gha manyimanyi. (Mariko 3:1-5; Yohane 4:46-54) Iyo wakachizganga ŵanthu aŵa mu nthowa zakupambanapambana. Ŵanthu ŵanyake wakaŵachizgiranga kutali, apo ŵanyake wakachitanga kuŵakhwaska. (Mateyu 8:2, 3, 5-13) Ŵanyake ŵakachira pa nyengo yeneyiyo, ŵanyake pachokopachoko.—Mariko 8:22-25; Luka 8:43, 44.

14. Kasi Yesu wakachita vichi ivyo vikulongora kuti wali na nkhongono ya kuwuska ŵakufwa?

¹⁴ Kuluska vyose, Yesu wakaŵa na nkhongono ya kuwuska ŵakufwa. Katatu kose, Yesu wakawuska ŵanthu ŵakufwa, wakawezgera msungwana wa vyaka 12 ku ŵapapi ŵake, mwana musepuka yumoza pera ku anyina awo ŵakaŵa chokoro, kweniso wakawezgera Lazaro ku ŵadumbu ŵake. (Luka 7:11-15; 8:49-56; Yohane 11:38-44) Mu vyakuchitika vyose vitatu ivi pakaŵavya icho chikaŵa chakusuzga. Wakawuska msungwana wa vyaka 12 pa bedi apo wakafwira pati pajumpha nyengo yichoko waka. Wakawuska mwana musepuka wa chokoro pa machira, tikukayika yayi kuti likaŵa zuŵa ilo wakafwira. Ndiposo wakawuska Lazaro ku malaro pakati pajumpha mazuŵa ghanayi kufuma apo wakafwira.
