Naʻe fēfē moʻui ʻa e kau pōpulá ʻi he taimi ne pule ai ʻa Lomá?

ʻI he ʻEmipaea Lomá, naʻe tokolahi ai ʻa e faʻahinga naʻa nau hoko ko e kau pōpula koeʻuhí ko e ikuna fakakautau pe puke fakamālohi. Ko e faʻahinga ko iá naʻe fakatau atu kinautolu pea ko e tokolahi taha naʻe ʻikai ʻaupito haʻanau toe sio ki honau ngaahi ʻapí pe fāmilí.

Neongo naʻe ʻi ai ʻa e totonu fakalao ʻa Filimone ke tauteaʻi mamafa ʻa ʻOnesema, ka naʻe kole ʻe Paula kia Filimone ke “talitali lelei ia,” ʻo makatuʻunga ʻi he ʻofa pea mo e kaumeʻa ofi.—Filimone 10, 11, 15-18.

Ko e hā e ʻuhinga naʻe ʻiloa ai ʻa e kau Finisiá ʻi he fakalanu vaioletí?

Ko Finisia, ʻa ia ʻoku fakafuofua ko Lepanoni ia ʻi he ʻaho ní, naʻe ʻiloa ʻi hono fakalanu vaioleti Taiá, ʻa ia ko e fakahingoa ki he kolo ko Taiá. Ko Tuʻi Solomone ʻo ʻIsileli ʻo e kuonga muʻá naʻe teuteu ʻaki hono temipalé ʻa e ‘filo vaioleti’ ʻa ia naʻe ngaohi ʻe ha tokotaha ngāue fakasanisani mei Taia.—2 Kalonikali 2:13, 14.
