Ngakho-ke, abesifazane beBhayibheli okuzobhekiselwa kubo kulesi sihloko abakona nje ukucabangela, kodwa kunalokho bangempela ngempela, abaphila, yebo, ngesinye isikhathi emlandweni. Ngezansi sizobhekisela kwabanye besifazane abaphawula umlando weBhayibheli ngokukhethwa uNkulunkulu ngezinjongo ezithile.
Izindaba zabanye besifazane baseBhayibhelini
IBhayibheli linezindaba eziningi ezembula indlela uNkulunkulu asebenzisa ngayo abesifazane ukuze afeze izinjongo zakhe. Ngezansi sizochaza ezinye zazo.
U-Abhigayili
U-Abigayili wayengowesifazane onengqondo, ohlakaniphile futhi omuhle. Njengoba sazi, amagama aseBhayibhelini abonisa ubuntu bomuntu. Ngalo mqondo, umyeni ka-Abhigayili wayebizwa ngokuthi uNabali, okusho ukuthi “isiwula.” Wayeyindoda ecebe kakhulu futhi eyinzalo kaKalebi, kodwa wayehluke ngokuphelele. Njengoba uKalebi wayengomunye wezinhloli ezaziseJeriko. Wabonisa ukumesaba uNkulunkulu futhi enesibindi.
Ungomunye wabesifazane baseBhayibhelini okuthiwa babehlakaniphe kakhulu futhi belinganisela. Ngenxa yomqondo wakhe omuhle, wamvimbela uDavide ekubulaleni umyeni wakhe uNabali ( 1 Samuweli 25 ).
UNabali wayeyindoda ecebile enesimilo esibi kakhulu. UDavide wayeluse umhlambi wakhe wamasela ngolunye usuku wathuma izithunywa ukuba zimthumelele ukudla namanzi. UNabali waphendula ngendlela ebonisa ukudelela nangokuzidla ngokuthi wayengeke ayale muntu, okwamthukuthelisa uDavide.
U-Abhigayili wezwa lokho umyeni wakhe ayekwenzile futhi wathumela izinceku zakhe ukuba ziyonxusa umphefumulo womyeni wakhe. UDavide wasindisa ukuphila kukaNabali owafa esikhathini esithile kamuva. UDavide no-Abhigayili bashada ngemva kwalokhu.
Ana
U-Elkana wayenabafazi ababili: uPhenina noHana. Eyokuqala yayingakhulelwanga abantwana, eyesibili yazala amadodana ayishumi u-Elkana. Minyaka yonke lapho bekhuphuka beyokhulekela uJehova, uPhenina wayegcona uHana ngoba wayengakhulelwa esibelethweni sakhe.
Nakuba u-Elcana ayemthanda ngokujulile u-Ana, wayengajabule. Nokho, u-Ana wathulula umphefumulo wakhe ngomkhuleko wokuthi iNkosi ilalele udaba lwakhe futhi imnike indodana. UJehova wawuphendula umthandazo wakhe ngendodana ayiqamba ngokuthi uSamuweli futhi yakhonza uJehova.
Kulesi siqephu seBhayibheli singabonga ukuthi iNkosi iwuphendula kanjani umkhuleko wowesifazane onenhliziyo edabukile nethobekile.
1 Samuweli 1: 10-11
10 Wakhuleka kuJehova ngomunyu womphefumulo wakhe, wakhala kakhulu.
11 Wenza isithembiso, wathi: “Jehova Sebawoti, uma uvuma ukubheka ukuhlupheka kwencekukazi yakho, ungikhumbule, ungakhohlwa incekukazi yakho, kepha unike incekukazi yakho umntwana wesilisa, ngiyakumnika uJehova. zonke izinsuku zokuhamba kwakhe, nempuco ayiyikudlula ekhanda lakhe.
UDelilah
Akunakwenzeka ukuthi ngingamkhumbuli ngoba wayengowesifazane owakhaphela uSamsoni esebenzisa ithuba lothando ayenalo ngaye. Ngenxa yokuhaha kwakhe okweqile, wamukela imali kubabusi bamaFilisti ukuze athole amandla kaSamsoni, ngoba uNkulunkulu wamnika amandla amakhulu futhi akekho owayengamehlula.
UDelila wathathwa ukuhaha kwakhe, futhi akakhaphelanga kuphela indoda eyayimthanda, kodwa futhi noNkulunkulu. Akekho umuntu okufanele azicabangele yena, angathembeki noma abe nobugovu.
UDeborah
Igama elithi Deborah lisho "inkawu" futhi liwuphawu lokuhlakanipha nokuzinikela. Ngisho noDebora wabusiswa ngokuhlakanipha uNkulunkulu amnikeze kona ngeziprofetho.
UDebora ungomunye wabesifazane baseBhayibhelini abachazwa njengabanesibindi nomusa. WayengumkaLapidoti futhi uJehova wamsebenzisa njengomprofethikazi ukuze amtshele ukuthi ayeyowahola kanjani amabutho ama-Israyeli ukuze alwe namaKhanani, axazulule izinkinga zawo, phakathi kwezinye izinto. UDébora wasifundisa ukuthi ngokholo nothando ngoNkulunkulu konke kuyenzeka.
IBhayibheli lithi wayengowesifazane onesibindi neqhawe likaNkulunkulu. Wakhetha uBharaki wakwaNafetali. Ukholelwa ukuthi lena indoda enolaka ekwazi ukuhlanganisa abantu ukuze bamelane nesitha futhi bakwazi ukuzuza ukukhululwa kuka-Israyeli. Nakuba aziwa ngokuba nesibindi, waziwa nangokholo lwakhe nobudlelwane obuseduze noNkulunkulu, okumenza abe nesibindi futhi abe nesibindi. Nokho, igunya lebutho lalisezandleni zikaBharaki, futhi nguye nokholo lwakhe okwenza lokhu kukhululwa kuphumelele.
Okwenza uDébora ahluke isibindi sakhe: ungowesifazane ozidelayo ngenxa yabanye futhi ohlale elwela ukuletha izinzuzo kubantu. Ukholo lwakhe lwamgcina eqinile futhi wazuza imiphumela ayeyilindele.
ester
Njengabesifazane abaningi baseBhayibhelini emlandweni, u-Esteri wayebonakala engumuntu othobekile kakhulu, intandane engumJuda ehlala kwa-Israyeli eyadingiswa. Kodwa kule minyaka emine edlule, isikhundla sakhe sishintshe kakhulu futhi usefinyelele ezingeni eliphezulu kakhulu emphakathini. Uba indlovukazi yombuso wezwe. Lapho efinyelela lesi sikhundla, uyakwazi ukuphila ngokuhlakanipha.
Indlovukazi eyandulela u-Esteri yayibizwa ngokuthi uVashiti, owesifazane omuhle wodumo, owaba nesibindi sokungqubuzana neziyalezo ezingenangqondo zomyeni wakhe.
Intombazane eyakhuliswa umzala wayo uMoridekayi, okwakungu-Esteri, yaziwa ngobuhle bayo futhi iqondiswa nezinye izintombi ezinhle ezisezintsha endlini yabesifazane, ukuze ibe umuntu ozongena esikhundleni seNdlovukazi uVashiti. Kuwo wonke amantombazane ayebuthene eSusa, ngu-Adasa kuphela (igama lesiHebheru lika-Esteri) owayengakhulekeli izithombe zasePheresiya. Njengoba ayekhuliswe uMoridekayi, wakhiwa ngaphansi kwesiko lamaHebheru futhi wayelazi iqiniso likaNkulunkulu futhi emthanda.
Ngesinye isikhathi phambi kwenkosi, u-Ahashiveroshi wayethanda u-Esteri ngaphezu kwanoma yimuphi omunye wesifazane. Le ntombazane yathola umusa omkhulu kunezinye izintombi, ngakho yabeka umqhele ekhanda layo futhi yaba indlovukazi.
Ngaphansi kosongo lokubhujiswa, ngokushesha yafeza indima efanayo ekuphileni kwabantu bayo. U-Esteri akazange azinikele ekuzijabuliseni, ekunethezekeni noma ekunethezekeni kwesigodlo esasibaluleke kakhulu ngaleso sikhathi. Nokho, wayehlale eziqaphela izifiso, amathemba nezidingo zabantu bakhe.
Lona ungomunye wabesifazane abanesibindi kakhulu eBhayibhelini, ngoba akanankinga nokubeka ukuphila kwakhe engozini ukuze asindise abantu bakubo. Akazange akhohlwe ukuthi uvelaphi, futhi wonke amandla omndeni wasebukhosini akazange amenze alahlekelwe isizotha sakhe. Kodwa wayebuye abe nobuhlakani bokubhekana nomyeni wakhe, inkosi, ngesikhathi esinzima kakhulu kuye nakubo bonke ababemethemba.
Eva
Wayengowesifazane wokuqala okukhulunywa ngaye eBhayibhelini futhi engumngane okahle ka-Adamu. USathane wasebenzisa inyoka ukuze amyenge ukuba adle isithelo esenqatshelwe. Okungukuthi, isithelo somuthi wolwazi nokuphila. Ngamanye amazwi, wayengowesifazane wokuqala emhlabeni, uNkulunkulu wamdala ngombambo lwendoda. Wayengunina kaKhayini, u-Abela, uSeti nabanye abaningi.
Kusukela ekuqaleni, uJehova wasinika thina nabesifazane baseBhayibhelini inkululeko yokuzikhethela, okusho ukuthi singakwazi ukuzenzela izinqumo. U-Adamu no-Eva babephelele, babengenasono, kodwa lapho beluma isithelo esenqatshelwe, basuka phambi kukaJehova ngenxa yokungalaleli kwabo.
UJayeli
UJayeli waziwa ngokuthi umkaHebhere, omunye wabesifazane baseBhayibhelini, odume ngokuba nesibindi nangokubanaka ngaso sonke isikhathi abantu bakaNkulunkulu. Nguye owayephethe ukubulawa kukaSisera, ngokunembile lapho emkhohlisa ngokumnika ukudla ukuze amethembe, kodwa lapho eselele, wammbela inkemba ekhanda.
UDebora wayebikezele ukuthi uSisera wayezofela ezandleni zowesifazane, futhi ngokwenza kanjalo, uJayeli wayebhekwa njengowesifazane onenhlanhla enkulu. Wabonisa ukuhlakanipha nobuqili okwenza uSisera amethembe. Kodwa lapho sibhekene nezimo ezingezinhle, singabonisa isibindi esikhulu nokuthatha isinyathelo kuqala.
Indaba kaJayeli isibonisa ukuthi uNkulunkulu uhlale ezenza izibikezelo zakhe zigcwaliseke, futhi akukho nesisodwa kuzo esingaphumeleli.
UJezebhele
UJezebeli uyindlovukazi yakwa-Israyeli wasendulo, indaba yakhe ilandiswa kweyoku-1 AmaKhosi. Wayeyinkosazana yaseFenike, indodakazi ka-Ithobaal, inkosi yaseSidoni, futhi washada nenkosi yakwa-Israyeli u-Ahabi.
Isimilo sakhe sinamandla kakhulu. Endabeni yeBhayibheli, uchazwa njengonamandla okulawula umyeni wakhe. Ngakho-ke, wayekwazi ukufeza izifiso zakhe. Wabusa kusukela ngonyaka wama-869 kuya kowama-850 ngaphambi kokuzalwa kukaKristu
Umgomo ka-Ahabi wezombangazwe ngalo mshado wawuwukwenza ubuhlobo nomakhelwane baseFenike abanamandla ukuze bahlukanise umbuso wakwa-Israyeli neningizimu yakwaJuda. Kwakudingekile ukuba kunikezwe igama elisha elingokwenkolo ukuze kuvinjwe izakhamuzi ukuba zingaqhubeki zikhuluma ngethempeli elisenhloko-dolobha yoMbuso WakwaJuda, eJerusalema.
Ngakho, nakuba u-Ahabi eqhubeka ezinikezela ngokusemthethweni kuJehova, uJezebeli wakhulekela unkulunkulu waseFenike uBhali, emisa abapristi abasha abangu-450 futhi eqeda abapristi bakaJehova.
UNkulunkulu waletha umprofethi u-Eliya enkolelweni entsha. Ihlelo elisha lakholisa abantu ngesimangaliso esikhulu. Abalandeli bakaBhali babengabakhohlisi futhi kumelwe babulawe. Nokho, ukuma kwezizwe ezizimele kwakuqinile.
Ngemva kokuba u-Ahabi ebulewe empini nezitha, u-Izebeli waba umfelokazi futhi amadodana akhe athatha isihlalo sobukhosi. Nokho, indodana endala u-Ahaziya yafa ngenxa yokuwa, futhi indodana yesibili, u-Ioramu, yaba isisulu sokuketulwa umbuso kukaJenene Jeu esekelwa umpristi.
Indlovukazi yazi ngokufa kwendodana yayo futhi yazi ukuthi uJeu wayefike namabutho akhe esigodlweni. Ngangazi ukuthi ngiyisisulu esilandelayo. Ngakho uJezebeli wavula amehlo akhe ngesibindi, wagqoka, wagqoka izinwele zakhe ezisontekile, futhi waphuma efasiteleni. Lapho ewela umgwaqo ongezansi, waba nesibindi sokuthuka uJeu, embiza esikhundleni senkosi ngokuthi "umbulali wakhe."
Lapho uJeu ebuza ukuthi, "Ubani onami?" futhi ukuze ajabulise inkosi entsha, izinceku zakhe zamphonsa ngaphandle kwefasitela lesigodlo zambulala. Isidumbu sakhe sabekwa endaweni evulekile. Njengoba umprofethi u-Eliya abikezela, lapho beyibuyisa, bayithola ingxenye idliwe yizinja.
UJezebeli wakwazi ukuqamba amanga nokubulala ukuze anelise izifiso zakhe zobugovu. Njengoba uNkulunkulu ayelindele, wabulawa ubudlova futhi akazange angcwatshwe. Lona kwakungomunye wabesifazane baseBhayibhelini abonakele, ababenesifiso sokuvelela owayengenakho ukugxeka futhi owayengenza noma yini edingekayo ukuze abhubhise izitha zakhe nanoma ubani owayephikisana namacebo akhe.
Noma ngubani ophila impilo engcolile futhi engalawuleki kude nendlela kaNkulunkulu, akanakulindela esinye isiphetho.
Lona kwakungomunye wabesifazane abakhohlakele nabafuna ukuvelela baseBhayibhelini, wayengenasimilo futhi wenza noma yini edingekayo ukuze abhubhise isitha noma aphikisane necebo lakhe.
Ophila ukuphila kokuziphatha okubi, ngaphandle kwemingcele, kude nendlela kaNkulunkulu, akekho ongalindela esinye isiphetho.
umfazi kaLotho
Igama lomkaLoti alishiwo eBhayibhelini, kodwa ungowesifazane owathola amadodakazi amabili ngomyeni wakhe. Indaba isitshela ukuthi lapho uNkulunkulu enquma ukuqeda iSodoma neGomora, imizi emibili eyayinamasiko okuziphatha okubi futhi elahlekile ngenxa yezono zezakhamuzi zayo, wayefuna ukunikeza uLoti ithuba, futhi wathumela izingelosi ukuba zisindise yena nomndeni wakhe.
Lezi zingelosi zizothatha uLoti, indodakazi yakhe nomkakhe, zibayise endaweni lapho bengekho engozini, futhi umyalo kuphela ezimnika wona ukuthi uma zizwa okuthile, zingaphenduli ubuso bazo ngoba lokho kuzobangela ukufa kwabo.
UmkaLoti akazange azinake iziqondiso zengelosi, wasusa ubuso bakhe, waba insika kasawoti.
Izinto ezibonakalayo azikaze zibe ngaphezu kwalokho eziyikho manje, ngakho zisephuca ukuthula. Uma uNkulunkulu ekucela ukuba wenze okuthile, kufanele simlalele, ngoba icebo lakhe ngathi lihlale lingcono kunalokhu esikuhlelile.
umshulamiti
Ungumlingiswa ovela encwadini ethi "Ingoma Yezingoma." Kule ncwadi, uthando lwethulwe ngendlela emsulwa. Engqikithini yayo, le ndaba igxile kubalingiswa ababili abayinhloko: INkosi uSolomoni ( IsiHlabelelo SeziHlabelelo 1:4, 12; 3:9, 11; 7:5 ) nowesifazane osemusha ongumShulami ( IsiHlabelelo SeziHlabelelo 6:13 ). Umongo womlando wale ncwadi yilapho uSolomoni enyukela esihlalweni sobukhosi sikaDavide ngo-971 BC. Uthandana nale ntombazanyana ngokushesha nje lapho ethatha ukubusa.
Njengoba sesiphawulile, le ngoma igqamisa ubumsulwa nobuhle bothando emshadweni. Iqokomisa izimiso zokwethembeka nokwethembeka kwakho kokubili.
Naphezu kokuhlakanipha nokuqiniseka kukaSolomoni, siyazi ukuthi wayishiya le ndlela yokuphila. Wayephila ukuphila okuxekethile. Nokho, ngemva kohambo lokuphila kwakhe, lapho ehlaziya okuhlangenwe nakho kwakhe waqaphela ukuthi lokhu kuphila kwakuyize kuphela futhi waphetha:

UNkulunkulu, owazi inhliziyo yakhe, wabona ukuthi uLeya wayehlupheka ngenxa yonya lomyeni wakhe, ngakho wambusisa ngamadodana ayisithupha nendodakazi eyodwa. Nakuba uLeya engazange enze kahle ekuqaleni ekwamukeleni ukukhohliswa okunjalo, wayengenakukwenza ngoba kwakuyisiko likayise, kodwa wathandaza kuNkulunkulu ukuba umyeni wakhe amthande njengodadewabo. UNkulunkulu uyazazi izinhliziyo zethu, futhi lapho sizinikela kuye ngokuthobeka, uyoyizwa imithandazo yethu futhi asule izinyembezi zethu.

Amavangeli amabili kwamane asendulo eTestamente Elisha akhuluma ngoMariya waseBethaniya, ohlala nodadewabo uMarta nomfowabo uLazaru edolobheni laseBethaniya, eduze neJerusalema.
Ngenxa yesiqephu sokugcotshwa kukaJesu eBethaniya, abanye baye bahlonza uMariya nesoni esingaziwa esenza isenzo esifanayo eVangelini ngokukaLuka 7: 36-50, uma kubhekwa ukuthi zombili iziqephu ezifanayo ngokushukuma komzimba zenzeka endlini yomuntu ogama lakhe linguSimoni futhi noMariya Magdalena, okukhulunywe ngaye ngokushesha ngemva kwalokho eVangelini likaLuka (Luka 8: 1-3).

UMarta wakhononda kuJesu, kodwa waphendula: “Marta, Marta, ukhathazeka futhi ukhathazeka ngezinto eziningi, kodwa enye yazo iyadingeka, ngoba uMariya ukhethe okungcono kakhulu, angayikwaphucwa yona.
EmaVangelini ngokukaJohane 11.1:46-XNUMX, odadewabo ababili bathumela uJesu ukuba ayophulukisa uLazaru owayegula, kodwa uJesu wafika ngemva kwesikhathi futhi wayesefile kakade.
UMariya wambingelela, wakhala wathi: "Nkosi, uma ubukhona, umfowethu ngabe akafanga." Ngemva kwalokho uJesu waya ethuneni ukuze avuse uLazaru. EVangelini ngokukaJohane 12.1:8-XNUMX, lapho uLazaru nodadewabo bemukela uJesu esidlweni sakusihlwa, uMariya wagcoba amafutha ayigugu kakhulu ezinyaweni zikaJesu futhi wazesula ngezinwele zakhe.
UJuda Iskariyothe wakhononda ngokuthi la mafutha ayengathengiswa, imali inikezwe abampofu, kodwa yachithwa. Kodwa uJesu wamkhuza futhi wamtshela ukuthi isenzo sikaMariya simemezela ukugcotshwa kwesidumbu sakhe ngoMgqibelo oNgcwele, ngokusa kwePhasika.
UMathewu (26.6:13-14.3) naye walibika leli qiniso eVangelini, kanye noMarku (9:XNUMX-XNUMX), kodwa abazange bakhulume ngoMariya (owesifazane owenza lamafutha wayengaziwa).
UMariya wabonisa ukuthi wayemthanda ngempela uJesu izikhathi eziningana, ngakho wadela konke ayekwenza ukuze anakekele uJesu, ngoba wayazi ukuthi ukukhulekela uNkulunkulu kwakuyinto ebaluleke kakhulu. Ukholo lwakhe lwamehlula, wazibona engumngane kaJesu omkhulu, yingakho wayehlala emhlonipha.

Ngenye ye abesifazane abakhulu bebhayibheli, owaziwa kakhulu ngokuba ngokhethwe uNkulunkulu ukuba abe unina wendodana yakhe uJesu. Enye yezimfanelo zikaMariya kwakuwukuthobeka kwakhe. Ukuze ufunde kabanzi ngalesi sici, ngikumema ukuthi ufunde isixhumanisi esilandelayo. Ukuthobeka: incazelo yeBhayibheli.
Kukholakala ukuthi uyibhungu elineminyaka engu-16 ubudala. Wayeyintombi nto futhi ngaphambi kokuba ashade noJosefa, wavakashelwa ingelosi eyamtshela ukuthi wayezokhulelwa indodana. Nakuba uMariya eseyintombazane ezoshada, uzimisele ukufeza indima ayiphathisiwe futhi ngaleyo ndlela uba unina kaJesu.
Nakuba akhethwa njengonina kaJesu, wahlala ethobekile futhi akazange acele lutho, ngokuphambene, lokhu ngokusobala kwakuwuphawu lokulalela kwakhe.

UMarta waseBethaniya ungumlingiswa waseBhayibhelini. EVangelini likaLuka nelikaJohane uchazwa ngokuthi ungudadewabo kaMariya noLazaru, izakhamuzi zaseBethaniya, eduze neJerusalema.
Bamchaza njengomuntu wesifazane osebenza kanzima. Singacabanga ukuthi wayenendaba nokuthi yonke into ihlelekile futhi ilungile.
Njengoba sekushiwo endabeni kaMariya, odadewabo ababili bamukela uJesu endlini, kodwa lapho uMarta enza umsebenzi wasendlini, uMariya wahlala phansi ukuze alalele uJesu. Udadewabo wakhononda ngesimo sengqondo sikaMariya ngoJesu, kodwa waphendula: “Marta, Marta, ukhathazeka futhi uthukuthele ngezinto eziningi, kodwa enye yazo iyadingeka.
UMariya ukhethe okungcono kakhulu, angeke aphucwe yena. Nakuba udadewabo uMariya azama kanzima ukunakekela uJesu ngokuqondile, uMarta wenza lokho ayecabanga ukuthi kulungile, ngomoya wokungenisa izihambi.
