Igitabo cya Daniyeli - Umubare wa Gatatu

Ubu turi gusuzuma “ibihe birindwi” byo muri Abalewi makumyabiri na batandatu mu gitabo cya Daniyeli. Byahishwe ku bahisemo guhuma amaso yabo, ariko birahari ku bashaka kubona. Turatangirira muri Daniyeli igice cya munani, umurongo wa cumi na gatatu.

Umurongo utangirana n’ijambo “noneho,” kandi urimo ushyiraho itandukaniro hagati y’iyerekwa ry’amateka y’ubuhanuzi Daniyeli yari amaze kubona mu mirongo icumi ibanziriza uyu. Umurongo wa mbere n’uwa kabiri b’iki gice, bigaragaza umwaka Daniyeli yakiriyeho iryo yerekwa, kandi nanone ko yarikiriye ku ruzi Ulai. Kuva ku murongo wa gatatu kugeza ku wa cumi na kabiri, “abona” iyerekwa ry’amateka y’ubuhanuzi. “Noneho” “yumva” ikiganiro cyo mu ijuru kigizwe n’ikibazo n’igisubizo. Ku murongo wa cumi na gatanu, atangira gushaka icyo iyerekwa ry’amateka y’ubuhanuzi yari amaze “kubona” ryasobanuraga. Ni iby’ingenzi cyane kumenya itandukaniro riri hagati y’iyerekwa Daniyeli “yabonye” mu mirongo ya gatatu kugeza ku wa cumi na kabiri, n’ikiganiro cyo mu ijuru “yumvise”—kuko ari amayerekwa abiri atandukanye.

Ikibazo cyo mu murongo wa cumi na gatatu ni iki ngo: “Ibyerekwa bizageza ryari?”, kandi ijambo ryahinduwemo “ibyerekwa” ni ijambo ry’Igiheburayo ritandukanye n’iryahinduwemo “ibyerekwa” mu murongo wa cumi na gatandatu.

Kubera bahinduye amagambo abiri atandukanye y’Igiheburayo bakayahindurira mu ijambo ry’Icyongereza “vision,” “ibihe birindwi” byo mu Balewi makumyabiri na gatandatu byahindutse “ibihishwe biri ku mugaragaro.” Abiga Bibiliya banyurwa no kureba ku buso gusa bafata ayo magambo abiri atandukanye y’Igiheburayo nk’aho ari ijambo rimwe, ariko babikora ku kaga kabo ubwabo.

Tubwirwa yuko “buri kintu cyose gifite icyo gisobanura” mu Ijambo ry’Imana, kandi nituhitamo kwirengagiza ukuri kw’uko mu gice cya munani harimo amagambo abiri atandukanye y’Igiheburayo yahinduwemo “iyerekwa,” tuzaba turi kwikururira ubwacu ubuhumyi bwa Lawodikiya. Umugani wa kera uravuga uti: “nta bahumyi baruta abanga kubona.”

Ijambo “iyerekwa” riboneka incuro icumi mu gice cya munani cya Daniyeli, ariko izo ncuro icumi zigizwe n’amagambo abiri atandukanye y’Igiheburayo, kandi ibisobanuro byayo si bimwe. Iyo aza kuba asobanura ikintu kimwe, Daniyeli yari gukoresha rimwe gusa muri ayo magambo muri buri hantu hose uko ari icumi ribonekamo. Daniyeli yanditse amagambo abiri, kuko buri rimwe muri ayo magambo yombi rifite igisobanuro cyaryo bwite; kandi rimwe rihagarariye iyerekwa Daniyeli “yabonye”, irindi na ryo rikagaragaza iyerekwa “yumvise”. Mu murongo wa cumi na gatatu, ijambo ryahinduwemo “iyerekwa” ni châzôn, kandi risobanura “ikigaragara”, cyangwa “iyerekwa”, “inzozi” cyangwa “ubuhanuzi”. Ndaryita “iyerekwa ry’amateka y’ubuhanuzi” nkurikije igisobanuro cyaryo n’uburyo Daniyeli arikoresha.

Mu murongo wa mbere w’igice cya munani cya Daniyeli, Daniyeli aravuga ati: “iyerekwa ryarambonekeye,” kandi mu murongo wa kabiri akavuga incuro ebyiri ko “nabonye mu iyerekwa.” Hanyuma mu murongo wa cumi na gatatu, habazwa ikibazo ngo: “iyerekwa rizageza ryari?” Izo mikoreshereze zose ni ijambo ry’Igiheburayo “châzôn.” Hanyuma mu murongo wa cumi na gatanu, tugera ahari wenda igihe cy’ingenzi kuruta ibindi byose Daniyeli yakoresheje iryo jambo nyene, kuko avuga ati: “ubwo jyewe”…“nari maze kubona iyerekwa kandi nshaka kurimenya.” Daniyeli amaze kubona iyerekwa rya châzôn, yashatse gusobanukirwa icyo risobanura. Icyo ni ukuri gufite uruhare rukomeye cyane ku guhishwa kw’“ibihe birindwi” byo mu Balewi makumyabiri na gatandatu muri icyo gice.

Nanone kandi akoresha ijambo châzôn mu mirongo ya cumi n’irindwi na makumyabiri n’itandatu. Ijambo “iyerekwa” rigaragara incuro icumi mu gice cya munani cya Daniyeli, kandi ijambo châzôn rihagarariye incuro zirindwi muri izo. Daniyeli akoresha ubundi bwoko bw’ijambo ry’Igiheburayo risobanurwa ngo “iyerekwa” incuro enye. Iryo rindi jambo ry’Igiheburayo ni mar’eh, kandi risobanura “uko kugaragara”.

Ijambo **Châzôn** riboneka incuro zirindwi mu gice cya munani cya Daniyeli, naho **mar’eh** riboneka incuro enye, kandi hamwe bihagararira incuro icumi ijambo ry’Icyongereza **“vision”** ribonekamo muri Daniyeli igice cya munani. Irindwi hiyongereyeho enye bingana n’icumi na rimwe, kuko rimwe mu ncuro Daniyeli yakoresheje ijambo **mar’eh**, ryahinduwe nk’uko risobanurwa ubwaryo; kuko mu murongo wa cumi na gatanu, igihe Daniyeli **“yashakaga kumenya ibisobanuro”** by’iyerekwa rya **châzôn** ry’amateka y’ubuhanuzi, **“hahagaze imbere”** ye **“nk’ufite ishusho y’umuntu.”** Ijambo **“ishusho”** ni **mar’eh**. Ni cyo gituma **mar’eh** rikoreshwa na Daniyeli incuro enye muri Daniyeli 8, kandi rigahindurwa rimwe bihuye n’insobanuro yaryo y’ibanze ya **“ishusho,”** naho izindi ncuro eshatu rigahindurwa ngo **“iyerekwa.”**

Sinshaka kunenga abagabo bahinduye Bibiliya ya King James. Icyakora, birakwiye kwitonderwa yuko mu murongo wa cumi na gatatu habonekamo ijambo ryonyine ryongerewe muri Bibiliya ya King James (igitambo), kandi uguhumekwa kwemeza mu buryo budasubirwaho ko “ritari iry’umwandiko.” Uguhumekwa kandi gukomeza kuvuga ko iryo jambo ryongereweho “ryongewemo n’ubwenge bwa kimuntu.” Muri uwo mutwe nyine kandi, amagambo abiri atandukanye y’Igiheburayo yahinduwemo ijambo rimwe ry’Icyongereza. Impamvu ari ngombwa cyane kumenya itandukaniro riri hagati y’ayo magambo yombi ifite uburemere bukomeye cyane.

Nk’uko Daniyeli “yashakaga gusobanukirwa” n’“iyerekwa rya châzôn” yari amaze “kubona,” Kristo ategeka Gaburiyeli “gutuma” Daniyeli asobanukirwa “iyerekwa rya mar’eh” yari amaze “kumva.” Daniyeli yashakaga gusobanukirwa iyerekwa ry’amateka y’ubuhanuzi, ariko Kristo, wari waragaragajwe mu murongo wa cumi na gatatu nka Palmoni (wa wundi mutagatifu wavugaga), yategetse Gaburiyeli gutuma Daniyeli asobanukirwa “iyerekwa rya mar’eh,” si “iyerekwa rya châzôn.” Mu mirongo ya cumi n’itanu n’uwa cumi na gatandatu, intego ivuzwe ku bwa Gaburiyeli ni uko agomba gutuma Daniyeli asobanukirwa “iyerekwa rya mar’eh,” ari ryo jambo ryahinduwemo “iyerekwa” risobanura “ukugaragara,” si rya yerekwa ry’amateka y’ubuhanuzi Daniyeli yashakaga gusobanukirwa. Hatabanje kumenya inshingano Gaburiyeli yari yahawe, “ibihe birindwi” byo mu Balewi makumyabiri na gatandatu biguma bihishe kandi biri ahagaragara.

Mu murongo wa makumyabiri na gatandatu ayo magambo yombi y’Igiheburayo yahinduwemo “iyerekwa” aboneka muri uwo murongo umwe, kandi uwo murongo uba umwe mu mfunguzo z’ibanze zo gufungura ukuri kw’ubuhamya bwa Daniyeli bw’“ibihe birindwi.”

Mu murongo wa makumyabiri na gatandatu, “iyerekwa ry’umugoroba n’igitondo” ni iyerekwa rya mar’eh, risobanura “ukuboneka”; ariko iyerekwa ryagombaga “gufungwa” ni iyerekwa rya châzôn ry’amateka y’ubuhanuzi. Imvugo ngo “umugoroba n’igitondo” ni yo itandukanya kandi ikagaragaza neza itandukaniro riri hagati y’ayo mayerekwa yombi. Ibyo ibikora binyuze no ku yindi shusho yerekana uruhare rw’ubumuntu mu gutunganya Bibiliya. Uruhare rw’ubumuntu rwari rugizwe n’abahanuzi banditse amagambo ya Bibiliya, ariko kandi n’abayihinduye. Bibiliya, kimwe na Kristo, igaragaza ihuriro ry’ubumana n’ubumuntu. Uwo bumuntu bwakomeje kumanuka mu mateka, uhereye kuri Adamu amaze gukora icyaha kugeza ku banditse kandi bahinduye Bibiliya. Kristo na Bibiliya byombi ni Ijambo ry’Imana, kandi Ijambo ry’Imana riratunganye, kuko ubumana buri muri iryo huriro bwahoraga butsinda inzitizi zose zari mu mubiri.

Imvugo ngo “nimugoroba n’igitondo” iboneka kenshi mu Ijambo ry’Imana, kandi buri gihe ihindurwa ngo “nimugoroba n’igitondo,” nk’uko iri mu murongo wa makumyabiri na gatandatu, kandi nk’uko ikunze cyane guhindurwa mu nkuru y’irema yo mu Itangiriro ihora ivuga iti: “maze habaho umugoroba, habaho n’igitondo….” Mu by’ukuri, kandi buri kuri gufite icyo kumarira (kandi uku kuri ni ngombwa kugira ngo gusobanukirwe), ahantu honyine muri Bibiliya aho imvugo ngo “nimugoroba n’igitondo” idahindurwa ngo “nimugoroba n’igitondo” (nk’uko biri mu murongo wa makumyabiri na gatandatu), ni mu murongo wa cumi na kane wa Daniyeli umunani. Aho, kandi aho honyine mu Ijambo ry’Imana, interuro ngo “nimugoroba n’igitondo” ihindurwa gusa ngo “iminsi.”

Imirongo cumi n’ibiri nyuma yaho, muri uwo mutwe nyine wa Daniyeli, imvugo y’Igiheburayo ngo “nimugoroba n’igitondo” yahinduwe nk’uko ihora ihindurwa; ariko mu murongo ari wo nkingi yo hagati n’urufatiro by’Abadiventisiti, iyo mvugo yahinduwe gusa ngo “iminsi.” Ni uruhe ruhare rwatumye abasemuzi ba Bibiliya ya King James bakora uku kwivuguruza kugaragara gutyo? Bari bahinduye iyo mvugo mu murongo wa makumyabiri na gatandatu bahuje n’uko iboneka ahandi hose muri Bibiliya. Ariko imirongo cumi n’ibiri mbere y’umurongo wa makumyabiri na gatandatu, mu murongo wa cumi na kane, ubumuntu bwabo bwashyize itandukaniro ryihariye ku gisubizo cy’ikibazo cyo mu murongo wa cumi na gatatu. Kandi ikibazo cyo mu murongo wa cumi na gatatu cyarimo rya jambo rimwe (igitambo), ritagombaga kongerwa muri Bibiliya. Imana yashakaga ko umurongo wa cumi na kane ugaragara mu buryo bwimbitse cyane kandi bwihariye. Kandi mu kubigenza ityo, yanagaragaje icyo Gaburiyeli yategetswe kumenyesha Daniyeli ngo acyumve.

Mu murongo wa cumi na gatandatu, Yesu yategetse Gaburiyeli gutuma Daniyeli asobanukirwa iyerekwa rya mar’eh, nubwo Daniyeli yashakaga gusobanukirwa iyerekwa rya châzôn ry’amateka y’ubuhanuzi. Umurongo wa makumyabiri na gatandatu uvuga ko “iyerekwa ry’umugoroba n’igitondo ryabwiwe” ryari “ukuri.” Iyerekwa rya châzôn ryari “ikintu cyabonwe” cy’ubuhanuzi, ariko iyerekwa rya mar’eh ryo “ryarabwiwe,” kuko ryari ryaravuzwe. Ryari ryaravuzwe mu murongo wa cumi na kane, igihe Palmoni yavugaga ati: “kugeza ku bihumbi bibiri na magana atatu by’imigoroba n’ibitondo; maze ubuturo bwera buzahanagurwe.” Umurongo wa makumyabiri na gatandatu ukoresha imvugo “imigoroba n’ibitondo,” ubwo urimenya nk’iyerekwa ryari “ryaravuzwe,” kugira ngo werekane itandukaniro riri hagati y’ayo mayerekwa yombi yo muri Daniyeli igice cya munani. Iyerekwa ry’amateka y’ubuhanuzi Daniyeli yari “yarabonye”, kandi Daniyeli yifuzaga gusobanukirwa, ryari ritandukanye n’iyerekwa “ryavuzwe” Daniyeli yari “yarumvise”. Icy’ingenzi kurushaho, iyerekwa Daniyeli “yumvise” ni ryo yerekwa Gaburiyeli yagombaga guhesha Daniyeli kurisobanukirwa.

Ubumuntu bwagize uruhare mu kurema Bibiliya Yera bwanditse ijambo “iyerekwa” incuro icumi mu gice cya munani cya Daniyeli, kandi mu kubigenza butyo bwahishe itandukaniro riri hagati y’iyerekwa “ryabonwe” n’irindi yerekwa “ryumviswe”. Mu kubigenza butyo, bwatwikiriye ishimangirwa rigaragaza ko umugambi wa Kristo wari uko Daniyeli asobanukirwa iyerekwa yari “yumvise”, kuruta uko yasobanukirwa iyerekwa yari “yabonye”. Ubu dushobora kureba ibyo Gaburiyeli akora kugira ngo asohoze inshingano yahawe.

Noneho Gaburiyeli atangira umurimo we wo gufasha Daniyeli gusobanukirwa iyerekwa ry’iminsi magana abiri na mirongo itatu ry’amanywa n’umugoroba, ari ryo kuri. Mbere na mbere amumenyesha ko iyerekwa ry’amateka y’ubuhanuzi, iyerekwa châzôn, rizabaho mu “gihe cy’imperuka.” Hanyuma, Daniyeli ari mu bitotsi by’ubuhanuzi, Gaburiyeli akora kuri Daniyeli maze amuhagarika yemye. Aramubwira ati “Nzagutera kumenya.”

Ibyo ni byo Palmoni (Kristo) yari yabwiye Gaburiyeli gukora, ubwo yavugaga ati: “Gaburiyeli, menyesha uyu muntu gusobanukirwa n’iyerekwa rya mar’eh” ry’umugoroba n’igitondo. Gaburiyeli avuga ko azamenyesha Daniyeli “kumenya ibizaba ku mperuka y’uburakari.” Ngaho rero! Aho ni ho hari “ibihe birindwi” byo mu Balewi makumyabiri na gatandatu! Byahishwe n’ubwo buryo nyine bw’ubuhanuzi Gaburiyeli yari yarayoboye abahanuzi inshuro nyinshi guhamya no gukoresha mu nyandiko zabo! Ubwo buryo ni “umurongo ku wundi murongo, aha hato n’ahandi hato”.

Mu gitabo cyitwa “Thoughts on Daniel and the Revelation”, cyanditswe na Uriah Smith (igitabo Abadivantisiti bose, ndetse n’abaturanyi babo, bakwiriye kuba bazi), Smith agira icyo avuga ku mirongo ya cumi na karindwi kugeza ku ya cumi n’icyenda yo mu gice cya munani cya Daniyeli:

“uburakari” Smith arimo kugaragaza bwatangiye igihe Manase yajyanwaga i Babuloni n’Abashuri mu mwaka wa 677 mbere ya Kristo. Ikibabaje ni uko Smith afata ihirikwa rya Sedekiya mu mwaka wa 586 mbere ya Kristo, maze akarikoresha nk’intangiriro y’igihe cy’“uburakari” bwo mu murongo wa cumi n’icyenda. Mu by’ukuri, Smith ntiyigera asobanura icyo bivuze kuba uwo murongo uvuga ngo “iherezo rya nyuma ry’uburakari.” Abifata nk’aho ari “uburakari” gusa; nyamara niba hariho “iherezo rya nyuma” ry’uburakari, ikibonezamvugo n’ubwenge bisaba ko habaho nibura n’“iherezo rya mbere” ry’uburakari. Smith yari azi ko ya myaka mirongo irindwi y’ubunyage yatangiranye n’igitero cya mbere Nebukadinezari yagabye kuri Yehoyakimu mu mwaka wa 606 mbere ya Kristo, ariko yemeza ko intangiriro y’igihe cy’uburakari ari igitero cya gatatu cya Nebukadinezari, cyagabwe kuri Sedekiya, umwami wa nyuma w’u Buyuda.

Smith yasobanukiwe neza ko “uburakari” bwo mu murongo wa cumi n’icyenda ari igihe runaka. Yasobanukiwe neza ko icyo gihe ari ukuribatwa kw’aheranda n’ingabo, bihuye na Daniyeli igice cya munani umurongo wa cumi na gatatu, kandi yasobanukiwe neza ko iherezo ryacyo ari ku wa 22 Ukwakira 1844.

Smith yari afite ukuri ku rugero runaka, ariko ntiyamenye ukuri nyakuri kubera gukora ibyari biranga uburyo yashyiraga mu bikorwa ubuhanuzi. Yemeye ko amateka ari yo ayobora uko asobanura ijambo ry’ubuhanuzi, aho kwemera ko ijambo ry’ubuhanuzi ari ryo riyobora uko asobanukirwa amateka. Nitwemera ko Bibiliya ari yo isobanura amateka y’ubuhanuzi, ni bwo tuba dufite amakuru akwiriye yo kwegera amateka.

Bibiliya yigisha ko icyo umuntu anesheshwa, aba abaye umugaragu wacyo.

Manase yajyanywe i Babuloni mu mwaka wa 677 M.K. Ni ho Yuda yaneshejwe kandi igashyirwa mu bubata. Iyi ni yo ngingo yo gutangiriraho igaragazwa ku mbonerahamwe zo mu 1843 no mu 1850, Sister White yemeza ko ari iz’ukuri. Smith atangiza kuribatanwa kwo muri Daniyeli igice cya munani, umurongo wa cumi na gatatu, kuri Zedekiya, umwami wa nyuma wa Yuda. Zedekiya yari iherezo ry’urubanza rwagiye ruterwa buhoro buhoro, si intangiriro yarwo. Sister White agaragaza ko kujyanwa kwa Manase i Babuloni mu bunyage kwari “ingwate” y’ibyari bigiye kuza. “Ingwate” ni ubwishyu bwa mbere, kandi igaragaza itangiriro ry’igurwa rifite andi yishyurwa azakurikiraho.

Manase yaranze “ingwati” yatangije “umuvumo” w’“ibihe birindwi,” ari wo “burakari” bwa nyuma, kuko “uburakari bwa mbere” bwari bwaratangiye ubwo ubwami bwo mu majyaruguru bwajyanwaga mu bunyage mu mwaka wa 723 Mbere ya Kristo. Hanyuma, igihe Yehoyakimu yahirikwaga ku ngoma, kandi Daniyeli akajyanwa mu bunyage, imyaka mirongo irindwi y’ubunyage Yeremiya yagaragaje yatangiye mu mwaka wa 606 Mbere ya Kristo. Abami babiri nyuma ya Yehoyakimu, Yerusalemu yararimbuwe, kandi umwami wa nyuma w’u Buyuda, Sedekiya, yarebaga uko abahungu be bicirwa imbere ye, hanyuma bamunogoramo amaso maze ajyanwa ari imbohe i Babuloni.

Smith yahaye urubanza rwose rw’iterambere kuri Sedekiya, kandi akoresha urubanza rwa Sedekiya nk’umwandiko gihamya wo gushyigikira igitekerezo cye. Urubanza rwa Sedekiya, wari “umwami mubi kandi wanduye,” rwerekanye ko ikamba ry’u Buyuda ryagombaga gukurwaho kugeza aho Kristo azazira gushinga ubwami. Smith yaravuze ati: “bagengwa n’ubutegetsi bwo ku isi, kandi ni ko bizakomeza kuba kugeza igihe intebe ya Dawidi izongera gushyirwaho,—kugeza igihe Uwo ari we muragwa wayo ukwiriye, Mesiya, Umwami w’amahoro, azazira, maze ubwo ni bwo izamuhabwa.” Ku wa 22 Ukwakira 1844, mu isohozwa rya Daniyeli igice cya karindwi, n’imirongo ya cumi na gatatu n’iya cumi na kane, Kristo, uhagarariwe nk’Umwana w’umuntu, yaje imbere ya Data kugira ngo ahabwe ubwami.

Mushikiwacu White yemeza ko Daniyeli igice cya karindwi, n’umurongo wa cumi na gatatu n’uwa cumi na kane, byasohoye ku wa 22 Ukwakira 1844.

Smith ntiyakemu ikigize cy’ingenzi cy’“iherezo rya nyuma ry’uburakari.” Yirinze ihame rya Bibiliya ryagaragazaga ko Yuda yatsinzwe mu gihe cya Manase, kandi ko iminyago yatangiye ku ngoma ebyiri mbere ya Zedekiya, na yo yagaragazaga ko Yuda yari isanzwe iri mu butware bwa Babuloni, mbere yuko Zedekiya agera ku iherezo rye. Nubwo hari ibyo yasize ku ruhande ku buryo bugaragara, yakomeje kuvuga ati, “dore igihe cy’uburakari bw’Imana ku bwoko bwayo bw’isezerano; igihe urusengero n’ingabo bizakandagirirwa munsi y’ibirenge.” Bityo rero, ahuza mu buryo butaziguye “igihe cy’uburakari bw’Imana” na Daniyeli igice cya munani, hamwe n’ikibazo cyo mu murongo wa cumi na gatatu kigira kiti “kugeza ryari.” Igisubizo cyo mu murongo wa cumi na kane, cyari kugeza ku wa 22 Ukwakira 1844.

Gutatana mu bubata bw’i Babuloni kwabaye amateka yagiye akomeza buhoro buhoro atangira mu mwaka wa 677 Mbere ya Kristo, akomeza kugeza mu wa 1844. Icyo gihe kingana n’imyaka ibihumbi bibiri magana atanu na makumyabiri, ari yo by’ukuri ya “bihe birindwi” byo mu Balewi makumyabiri na gatandatu. Iherezo ry’icyo gihe ku wa 22 Ukwakira 1844 ryahaye Daniyeli umuhamya wa kabiri ku byerekeye “iyerekwa rya mar’eh” ry’iminsi ibihumbi bibiri na magana atatu y’umugoroba n’igitondo.

Gaburiyeli yabwiwe kumenyesha Daniyeli iryo yerekwa, kandi icyo Gaburiyeli yakoze ni ugutanga umugabo wa kabiri ushimangira itariki y’iherezo yo ku wa 22 Ukwakira 1844. Ntiyatanzwe gusa nk’umugabo wa kabiri wo gukomeza itariki y’isohozwa ry’ubuhanuzi bwombi bw’ibihe, ahubwo nk’uko Smith yabigaragaje neza, igihe cyari gifitanye isano n’uwo mugabo wa kabiri cyemeza 1844, cyari cyaragaragajwe mu murongo wa cumi na gatatu, nk’igihe ubuturo bwera n’ingabo byagombaga gukandagirirwa munsi y’ibirenge. Ikibazo kiri mu murongo wa cumi na gatatu ni iki: “Iyerekwa ryerekeye igitambo gihoraho, n’igicumuro cy’ubutayu, rizamara igihe kingana iki, kugira ngo ubuturo bwera n’ingabo bikandagirirwe munsi y’ibirenge?” Icyo gihe ni cyo cyari “ibihe birindwi” byo mu Balewi makumyabiri na gatandatu.

Icyo Smith atabonye, cyangwa yirinze kugaragaza, ni uko “uburakari” buvugwa ku murongo wa cumi n’icyenda bwari “iherezo rya nyuma” ry’ubwo burakari. Niba hari “iherezo rya nyuma”, noneho hari n’“iherezo rya mbere”, kandi Daniyeli agaragaza aho “uburakari bwa mbere” bwarangiriye, mu gice cya cumi na kimwe. Ari kugaragaza ubupapa bwategekaga mu gihe cy’Imyaka y’Umwijima, kandi avuga ko ubupapa bwari kuzatera imbere kugeza ubwo uburakari busohoye, cyangwa burangiye.

Umurongo wa mirongo itatu na gatandatu usanzwe usobanurwa cyane ko ari wo ntumwa Pawulo yavuguruye mu magambo ye mu rwandiko rwe rwa kabiri yandikiye Abatesalonike.

“Umuntu w’icyaha” wa Pawulo, ari na we “umwana wo kurimbuka,” “urwanya kandi akishyira hejuru y’icyitwa cyose Imana, cyangwa igisengwa,” ni na we “mwami” “uzakora ibyo yishakiye; kandi azishyira hejuru, kandi azikuza asumbe imana yose.” Izo ngeri zombi z’amagambo zerekeza kuri papa w’i Roma. Daniyeli yandika ko papa azatera imbere, ari byo bivuga gusunikira ibintu imbere, kugeza ubwo “uburakari buzaba busohoye.” Uburakari buvugwa mu murongo wa mirongo itatu n’itandatu bwari “bwaragenwe.” Ijambo “bwaragenwe” risobanura “gukomeretsa.”

Ubupapa bwahawe “igikomere cyica” mu 1798, kandi icyo gihe “uburakari bwa mbere” bwari busohojwe cyangwa bwarangiye. Ijambo “gusohoza” risobanura kurangiza cyangwa guhagarika. Iherezo ry’“uburakari” mu gice cya munani, umurongo wa cumi n’icyenda, ryagaragaje iherezo ry’igihe ubuturo bwera n’ingabo byagombaga gukandagirirwa. Ibyo byarangiye mu 1844, ariko uburakari “bwa mbere” bwo bwarangiye mu 1798.

“uburakari bwa nyuma” bwarangiye mu wa 1844, nyuma y’imyaka ibihumbi bibiri na magana atanu na makumyabiri, uhereye igihe umwami Manase yajyanwaga i Babuloni n’Abanyashuri mu wa 677 mbere ya Kristo. “Uburakari bwa mbere” bwarangiye mu wa 1798, nyuma y’imyaka ibihumbi bibiri na magana atanu na makumyabiri, uhereye igihe ubwami bwo mu majyaruguru bwa Isirayeli bwajyanwaga mu bunyage n’Abanyashuri mu wa 723 mbere ya Kristo.

Hari ibindi byinshi byo kuvuga ku “bihe birindwi” byihishe mu gitabo cya Daniyeli, kandi tuzabigarukaho mu nyandiko yacu ikurikira.
