UJehova Uyakwazi Na?
Ngokuhlukileko, uMosi ‘bekathobeke kunabo boke ebebaphila ephasini.’ (Num. 12:3) Watjengisa ukuthobeka kwakhe ngokuzimisela ukulandela iinqophiso zakaJehova. (Eks. 7:6; 40:16) Akukho okutjengisa bona uMosi gade asola indlela kaJehova yokwenza izinto namtjhana asilingeke ngokulandela iinkambiso uJehova egade ambekele zona. Ngokwesibonelo, uJehova wanikela iinlayezo malungana nokwakhiwa kwethaberinakeli kuya emininingwaneni emincani, efana nombala wentambo nenani leenrhobelo ekufuze lisetjenziswe ekwenzeni amatjhila wetende.

Ekhambweni lama-Israyeli elaba minyaka ema-40 “erhalawumbeni elithusako,” uJehova akhenge awanikele imininingwana enqophileko kusesengaphambili malungana nokuthi uzowanqophisa awavikele, be-awasororhe njani. Nanyana kunjalo, bekasolo awatjengisa ukuthi angazuza ngokuthembela kuye neenqophisweni zakhe.

Umphristi uzawutjhisa phezu kwe-aldari ube mhlabelo owamukeleka kuSomnini. Ngendlela leyo umphristi uzabe umenzela itethelelo. Ngalokho uzakuhlambuluka esonweni sakheso. 32 “‘Umuntukazana loyo uvunyelwe ukuletha imvana njengomhlabelwakhe wehlambululo.

“Izenzo Ezitjengisa Ukuthokoza”
(Levitikusi 7:11, 12) Naku umyalo womhlabelo wetjhebiswano ongahle ulethwe kuSomnini: 12 Nakube umuntu uwunikela ngokutjengisa ukuthokoza anakho, kufuze anikele ngezikwa ezimasongo ezidutjwe ngamafutha we-oliva, izikwa ezisipara ezitjhatjhwe ngamafutha we-oliva nezikwa ezimasongo zeflowuru esefiweko ehlanganiswe kuhle ngamafutha we-oliva. Izikwezo zingabi nengumelo.
Iimfundo Esizifumana Encwadini KaLevitikusi
Isifundo sesibili: Silotjha uJehova ngebanga lalokho asenzele khona. Bona sikhanyise iphuzweli, akhesicabange ngomnikelo wetjhebiswano, okungenye yezinto ebeziqakatheke khulu ekulotjheni uJehova kwa-Israyeli wekadeni. Encwadini kaLevitikusi sifunda ukuthi um-Israyeli onikela umhlatjelo wetjhebiswano ‘bekatjengisa ukuthokoza.’ (Lev. 7:11-13, 16-18) Bekanganikeli ngombana kuyinto elindelekileko, kodwana bekungombana uyafuna. Yeke lo bekumnikelo osuka ehliziyweni umuntu awenza ngebanga lokuthi uthanda uZimu, uJehova. Umuntu onikelako, umndenakhe nabaphristi ngibo ebebadla inyama yomnikelo. Bese kuthi ezinye iingcenye zesilwaneso zinikelwe kuJehova kwaphela. Ngiziphi iingcenyezo?
(Levitikusi 7:13-15) Emnikelweni wezikwa awuletha nomhlabelo wetjhebiswano athokoza ngawo, kufuze angezelele izikwa ezimasongo eziwunyelweko. 14 Komunye nomunye umhlobo wesikweso, sinye saso kufuze sibe mnikelo kaSomnini. Lokho kungokomphristi ofafaza iingazi zomhlabelo wetjhebiswano. 15 Inyama yomhlabelo wetjhebiswano umuntu awunikela ngokuthokoza kufuze idliwe ngelanga enikelwa ngalo, angayitjhiyeli ikusasa.

Imihlatshelo Eyajabulisa UNkulunkulu
Omunye umnikelo wokuzithandela kwakungumnikelo wenhlanganyelo, ochazwe kuLevitikusi isahluko 3. Leli gama lingahunyuswa futhi ngokuthi “umhlatshelo weminikelo yokuthula.” NgesiHeberu, igama elithi “ukuthula” lisho okungaphezulu kakhulu kokungabi nampi noma ukuphazamiseka. “EBhayibhelini, lisho lokhu, kanye nesimo noma ubuhlobo bokuba nokuthula noNkulunkulu, ukuchuma nenjabulo,” kusho incwadi i-Studies in the Mosaic Institutions. Ngakho, imihlatshelo yenhlanganyelo yayinganikelelwa ukwenza ukuthula noNkulunkulu, ukubuyisana naye, kodwa yayinikelelwa ukubonga, noma ukugubha isimo esibusisekile sokuba nokuthula noNkulunkulu esasijatshulelwa yilabo abamukelekayo kuye. Abapristi nomuntu onikelayo babedla emhlatshelweni ngemva kokuba kunikelwe ngegazi namanoni kuJehova. (Levitikusi 3:17; 7:16-21; 19:5-8) Ngendlela enhle nengokomfanekiso, onikelayo, abapristi noJehova uNkulunkulu babehlanganyela isidlo, okufanekisela ubuhlobo obunokuthula obabuphakathi kwabo.
(Levitikusi 7:20) Umuntu ongakahlambuluki odla inyama yomhlabelo wetjhebiswano owenzelwe uSomnini, akajutjwe ebantwini bekhabo.

Imihlatshelo Eyajabulisa UNkulunkulu
Kuthiwani ngomuntu owenza umnikelo? UMthetho wawuthi noma ubani oza phambi kukaJehova kwakudingeka abe ohlanzekile, ongangcolile. Umuntu owayebe ngongcolile nganoma yisiphi isizathu kwakudingeka aqale enze umnikelo wesono noma wecala ukuze aphinde abe ohlanzekile phambi kukaJehova ukuze umnikelo wakhe wokushiswa noma umhlatshelo wakhe wenhlanganyelo wamukeleke kuYe. (Levitikusi 5:1-6, 15, 17) Ngakho-ke, ingabe siyakubona ukubaluleka kokulondoloza ukuma okuhlanzekile njalo phambi kukaJehova? Uma sifuna ukukhulekela kwethu kwamukeleke kuNkulunkulu, kumelwe sisheshe ukulungisa noma yikuphi ukwephulwa kwemithetho kaNkulunkulu. Kufanele sisheshe ukucela usizo ngendlela uNkulunkulu ayilungiselele—“amadoda amadala ebandla” ‘nomhlatshelo oyisihlawulelo wezono zethu,’ uJesu Kristu.—Jakobe 5:14; 1 Johane 2:1, 2.

UMlilo
Nakuziwa endabeni yethaberinakelini nethempelini. Umlilo ebewusethaberinakelini nethempelini bewufanekisela ukulotjha uZimu. Qobe ekuseni nantambama umphristi omkhulu bekufuze atjhise itjhwalo e-aldarini. (Eks 30:7, 8) Umthetho kaZimu bewuthi umlilo ose-aldarini lomnikelo wokutjhiswa kufuze uhlale uvutha. (Lev 6:12, 13) AmaJuda bewakholelwa ukuthi umlilo ose-aldarini bewuvuthiswa nguZimu ngokusimangaliso, ngitjho nanyana abantu abanengi bebayamukela ikolelo leyo imiTlolo ayikusekeli lokho. Ngokwesinqophiso uJehova asinikela uMosi ekuthomeni, amadodana ka-Aroni bekufuze ‘alungise iinkuni bese aphemba umlilo phezu kwe-aldari’ ngaphambi kokubeka umhlatjelo e-aldarini. (Lev 1:7, 8) Ngemva kokubekwa kwaka-Aroni bona abemphristi kwenziwa iminikelo, kungesikhatheso umlilo ovela kuZimu waqothula umhlabelo wokutjhiswa namafutha e-aldarini. Ngokwalokho, umlilo lo osimangaliso wazithomela begodu khenge uvuthise iinkuni ebezise-aldarini kodwana “waqothula umhlabelo wokutjhiswa namafutha e-aldarini.” Umlilo obewuhlala uvutha e-aldarini, bewuvuthiswa ziinthako ebezise-aldarini nomlilo ovela kuZimu. (Lev 8:14–9:24) Ngokufanako, umlilo osimangaliso ovela kuJehova waqothula iminikelo ngemva komthandazo kaSolomoni wokunikela ithempeli. Funda imitlolo le bona ufunde ngezinye izenzakalo lapho uJehova asebenzisa khona umlilo osimangaliso lokha nakamukela iminikelo yeenceku zakhe.—2Kr 7:1; Khk 6:21; 1Kh 18:21-39; 1Kr 21:26.
(Levitikusi 6:25) “Akakhulume no-Aroni namadodanakhe athi: “Naku umyalo womhlabelo wehlambululo: Umhlabelo wehlambululo kufuze uhlatjelwe phambi kwakaSomnini endaweni lapha kuhlatjelwa khona umhlabelo wokutjhiswa. Lowo kumhlabelo ocwenge khulu.

Uhlobo lwesilwane esinikelwayo luxhomeke ekutheni isono sikabani esihlangulwayo—esompristi, esabo bonke abantu, esenduna, noma esomuntukazana. Ngokungafani neminikelo yokushiswa yokuzithandela neyokuthula eyenzelwa abantu ngabanye, umnikelo wesono wawuyisibopho.—4:1-35; 6:24-30.
Ukufundwa KweBhayibheli
(Levitikusi 6:1-18) Godu uSomnini wakhuluma noMosi wathi: 2 “Nangabe umuntu wona ngokwenza isiphambeko kuSomnini ngokuba nobuqili emuntwini womphakathi ngento esiswe kuye netjhiywe kuye bona ayitjheje, ngokumgalaja, ngokumdlelezela, 3 namkha ngokufunyana into yomuntu womphakathi ilahlekile bese ufunga ngekohliso ngananyana yini yezintwezi umuntu angona ngazo phambi kwakaSomnini, 4 nakubanyana wona ngendlela enjalo kodwana azizwe anomlandu, akabuyisele akwebileko, akuthethe ngokudlelezela, lokho egade kusiswe kuye namkha ipahla ayifunyene ilahlekile, 5 okutjho nanyana yini afunge ngakho ngekohliso. Kufuze abuyise lokho kuphelele, abe angezelele ngokwesihlanu sobungako bepahla leyo. Akakubuyisele kumninipahla ngelanga aletha ngalo umhlabelwakhe wehlawulo. 6 Kufuze alethe ihlawulo kuSomnini okuliqama elimsulwa alithethe emhlambinakhe. Iqama aliletha njengomhlabelo wehlawulo alibe nobungako besiliva obubekwa mphristi. 7 Ngendlela leyo umphristi uzabe enzela umuntu loyo itethelelo kuSomnini. Ngalokho uzakuhlambuluka kinanyana ngiyiphi yezinto okuthi umuntu nakayenzileko abe nomlandu.” 8 USomnini wakhuluma noMosi wathi 9 akayale u-Aroni namadodanakhe athi: “Naku umyalo womhlabelo wokutjhiswa: Umhlabelo wokutjhiswa kufuze uhlale ezikweni le-aldari ubusuku boke, godu nomlilo uhlale uvutha phezu kwe-aldari. Ekuseni. 10 umphristi embathe iphuraphurakhe yelineni, athekeleze nedzeredzere ngaphasi kwayo, akhuphe umlotha womhlabelo wokutjhiswa otjhiswe mlilo phezu kwe-aldari awuthululele eqadi kwalo. 11 Uzabese uhlubula izambatho zakhe afake ezinye. Nje-ke uzakuwola umlotha ayowulahlela ngaphandle kwekampa endaweni ekhethekileko. 12 Awuhlale uvutha umlilo phezu kwe-aldari, ungacimi. Njalo ekuseni umphristi kufuze abaselele umlilo abese ulungisa umhlabelo wokutjhiswa phezu kwawo, godu atjhise nemihlwehlwe yemihlabelo yetjhebiswano emlilweni lowo. 13 Iye, umlilo kufuze uhlale uvutha njalo phezu kwe-aldari, ungacimi.” 14 “‘Naku umyalo womnikelo weenthoro: Amadodana ka-Aroni kufuze alethe umnikelo lowo kuSomnini ngaphambi kwe-aldari. 15 Umphristi uzakunghwatha isandla seflowuru esefiweko enamafutha we-oliva kanye namakha woke aphezu komnikelo weenthoro. Koke uzakutjhisa e-aldarini kube sisabelo sesikhumbuzo. Lokho kumnikelo owamukeleka kuSomnini. 16 U-Aroni namadodanakhe bazakudla koke okuseleko. Kufuze kudliwe kunganangumelo endaweni ecwengileko ngesirhodlweni setende lokuhlanganela. 17 Kungaphekwa ngengumelo. Ngikunikele abaphristi bona kube sisabelo sabo. Njengomhlabelo wehlambululo newehlawulo umnikelo lowo ungocwenge khulu ngombana bewulethwa njengomnikelo okhethekileko kuSomnin. 18 Boke abaduna baka-Aroni bangakudla.

UMosi wahlambisa u-Aroni namadodanakhe uNadabi izibulo no-Abhihu, u-Eleyazare no-Itamari, (namkha wabatjela ukuthi bahlambe) esitjeni sekoporo esirhodlweni begodu bambathise u-Aroni isambatho esiphazimulako somphristi omkhulu. (Num 3:2, 3) Nje-ke u-Aroni besele ambethe isambatho esihle ebesijamele umsebenzi azowenza nendlela ekufuze awenze ngayo. UMosi wazesa ithaberinakeli, izinto zalo, izitja, i-aldara lomnikelo wokutjhiswa nesitja salo. Lokho kwenza izintwezo zacwengeka begodu bezizokusetjenziselwa ukulotjha uZimu kwaphela. Ekugcineni, uMosi wazesa u-Aroni ngokumthela ngamafutha ehloko.—Lev 8:6-12; Eks 30:22-33; IR 133:2.

Labo esibafundelako bakarwa kuhlwengeka kweendawo esilotjhela kizo uZimu, nendlela esimbatha kuhle ngayo. Kodwana, ukuhlwengeka kwabaphristi kusisiza silemuke bona nanyana ngubani okhuphukela entabeni kaJehova kufuze abe ‘nehliziyo ehlanzekileko.’ (Funda IRhubo 24:3, 4; Isa. 2:2, 3.)

Wafundela abantu incwadi yesivumelwano, baphendula bathi, “Koke okukhulunywe nguSomnini sizokwenza begodu sizokulalela.” (Eks 24:3-8; Heb 9:19) Emsebenzinakhe wokuba mlamuli, uMosi bekanelungelo lokungamela umsebenzi wokwakhiwa kwethaberinakeli nokwenziwa kwezinto zalo ngokwesinqophiso asifumana kuZimu, ukubekwa kwabaphristi, ukuzesa umphristi ophakemeko u-Aroni nethaberinakeli ngeenthako zamafutha akhethekileko.

Iye, ukujanyiswa kufuze kuthathe amalanga alikhomba. 34 USomnini wayala bona okwenziwe namhlanjesi kwenziwe amalanga alikhomba kobana nenzelwe itethelelo. 35 Kufuze nihlale ebungenweni betende lokuhlanganela imini nobusuku amalanga alikhomba. Gcinani imiyalo kaSomnini ukuze ningafi ngombana ngilokho nami engayalwa ngakho.” 36 Nje-ke u-Aroni namadodanakhe benza koke uSomnini akuyala ngoMosi.
9 Kwathi ngelanga lokugcina lokujanyiswa kwabaphristi uMosi wabiza u-Aroni namadodanakhe kanye nabaphathi bakwa-Israyeli, 2 wathi ku-Aroni: “Thatha ikunzana ibe mhlabelwakho wehlambululo neqama libe mhlabelwakho wokutjhiswa, kokubili kube msulwa, ukulethe kuSomnini. 3 Nje-ke khuluma nama-Israyeli uthi, ‘Lethani ipongo ibe mhlabelo wehlambululo, ikunzana neqama okunomnyaka owodwa nokumsulwa, kube mhlabelo wokutjhiswa, 4 ikunzana neqama kube mihlabelo yetjhebiswano ehlatjelwa phambi kwakaSomnini kanye nomnikelo weenthoro ohlanganiswe ngamafutha we-oliva. Iye, khona namhlanje uSomnini uzozibonakalisa kini.’” 5 Baletha koke lokho uMosi ayala ngakho phambi kwetende lokuhlanganela, umkhambathi nawo wabandamela, wajama phambi kwakaSomnini. 6 Nje-ke uMosi wathi: “Okuzakwenziwa nje, yinto uSomnini ayale bona yenziwe ukuze iphazimulwakhe ibonakale kini.” 7 UMosi wathi ku-Aroni: “Tjhidela e-aldarini unikele umhlabelwakho wehlambululo kanye newokutjhiswa, uzenzele itethelelo, wena nomndenakho. Nikela umhlabelo ongowabantu ubenzele itethelelo njengombana uSomnini ayalile.”
