Beteli ni dzina la Ciheberi lomwe limbathandauza ‘Nyumba ya Mulungu.’ (Ciyambo 28:17, 19) Ni dzina labwino lakuperekedwa kuna nyumba zikulu zomwe Mboni za Yahova zidamanga pa dziko lense la pansi komwe basa lakupalizira limbatsogoleredwa na kuthandizidwa. Bungwe Lakutonga limbatumikira ku likulu mu Mzinda wa Nova York, America, ndipo na kumweko iro limbanyang’anira basa la bzipinda bza mthambi bza m’madziko mazinji. Ninga thimu, womwe wambatumikira pa nyumba zimwezi wambadziwika ninga banja la Beteli. Ninga banja, iwo wambakhala na kuphata basa pabodzi, wambapfatsa kudyera pabodzi na kupfunza Bibliya pabodzi mwaciphatano.—Psalymo 133:1.

Ni mbuto yakupambulika yomwe wanthu wambaphata basa mwakubzipereka ninga banja. Ku nyumba zense za Beteli, kuna amuna na akazi womwe wadabzipereka kwa Mulungu, wacimutumikira mwa nthawe zense kuti wayendese patsogolo bzakufunika bza Umambo. (Mateu 6:33) Palibe omwe ambatambirisidwa kobiri pa mwezi, tsono wense wambapasidwa mui na cakudya pabodzi na kakobiri kakuthandizira bzakufunika bza pa moyo wawo. Munthu ali-wense pa Beteli ambakhala na basa lace, lomwe lingakhale m’gabineti, m’cipinda cakuphikira ayai m’cipinda cakudyera. Winango wambatumikira m’mbuto yakudindira mabukhu, yakuphatanidza matsamba ya mabukhu, kusamalira nyumba, kufula, kukonza bzinthu bzakudzongeka ayai kucita mabasa manango.

Ni mbuto yomwe imbathandizira kupalizidwa kwa Umambo. Cakulinga cikulu ca Beteli iri-yense ni kucitisakuti wanthu wazinji wagumane cadidi ca m’Bibliya.. Broxura lino n’ciratizo cibodzi ca bzimwebzo. Iro lidanembedwa mwakutsogoleredwa na Bungwe Lakutonga, licitumizidwa na mitcini ya nzeru kuna madzana ya mathimu ya anyakusandulizira yakugumanika pa dziko lense la pansi, licikadindidwa na mitcini yakuthamanga kwene-kwene ya ku mabeteli mazinji, licitumizidwa ku magwere yakupitirira 110.000. Pa mbali iri-yense ya basa limweri, banja la Beteli limbathandizira basa lakufunika mwakanfulumize pa bzense—kupalizira bzipsa bzabwino.—Marko 13:10.
