Munyaya yapfuura takaratidza kuti Gabhuriyeri akapa mhedziso ye“hasha dzokupedzisira” kuti asimbise zuva ra1844, zvichibva pazvapupu zviviri. Miller ainzwisisa “nguva nomwe” dzaRevhitiko makumi maviri nenhanhatu, dzakaitwa pamusoro poushe hwaJudha, asi haana kumbosvika pakuona chinangwa noukama hwerutongo rwe“nguva nomwe” pamusoro poushe hwokumusoro nohwekumaodzanyemba hwaIsraeri. Kuti akamboziva here musiyano we“hasha dzokupedzisira” mundima yegumi nepfumbamwe hazvina kujeka, kunyange zvazvo pasina mubvunzo ainzwisisa nenzira yakajairika kuti “hasha” idzodzo dzaiva “nguva nomwe.” Chiedza chehasha dzokutanga nedzokupedzisira chakazarurwa naPalmoni muna 1856, asi chakarambwa muna 1863. Asi shoko raMiller re“nguva nomwe” rakanga rakarurama, kunyange zvazvo rakanga rakaganhurirwa.

Miller angadai asingadai aaziva kuti nyanga duku yeRoma yechihedheni yakasimudza ikakudza chihedheni, mundima yegumi neimwe yaDanieri 8, nokuti kuna Miller, “kubvisa” kwaingoreva kungobvisa chete pazvinowanikwa zvitatu zvose muna Danieri. Kunyange zvakadaro, shoko rake rakanga richiri rechokwadi, kunyange rakanga rakaganhurirwa.

VaMillerite vaiziva kuti “nzvimbo tsvene” iri mundima yegumi neimwe yaiva temberi yechihedheni muguta reRoma (Pantheon), asi mutauro wechiHebheru handicho chakanga chakavakirwa shoko ravo pairi. Shoko raMiller rakanga rakanangana nenguva yechiporofita. Nhoroondo umo shoko ravo rakazarurwa yakavadzivisa kuona United States soumambo hwechitanhatu hwechiporofita cheBhaibheri, asi kupfuura ipapo, yakavadzivisawo kuona upapa soumambo hwechishanu hwechiporofita cheBhaibheri.

Dhanyeri 8:15–27.

Kunyange zvazvo Danieri akagamuchira chiratidzo cherwizi rweUlai (chiri zvino muchiitiko chokuzadzikiswa), munhoroondo yeBhabhironi, umambo hwokutanga hausanganisirwi muchiratidzo. Hwakanga hwasanganisirwa semusoro wendarama, neshumba muzvitsauko zviviri nezvinomwe, asi muchitsauko chechisere chimiro chechiporofita cheBhabhironi chokubviswa nokuzodzorerwa ndicho chakasimbiswa. Nebhukadhinezari akanga afananidzira ronda rinouraya roupapa paakadzingwa pakati pavanhu kwe“nguva nomwe,” saizvozvo achifananidzira makore makumi manomwe okufananidzira umo hure reTire rinokanganwika. Muna Danieri chitsauko chechisere, Bhabhironi rinokanganwikwa kubva paumambo hwechiporofita hweBhaibheri, uye chiratidzo chinotanga navaMedhia navaPezhia (gondohwe), zvichiteverwa neGirisi (mbudzi).

Umambo hwaAleksandire Mukuru hwakaparara hukava umambo huna hune simba riri pasi pane raAleksandire, sezvazvakange zvamirirwawo muchitsauko chechinomwe nembada yaiva namapapiro mana nemisoro mina.

Mundima yechisere yechitsauko chechisere, kwakabuda dzimwe huna dzakakurumbira dzakananga kumhepo ina dzokudenga. Muchitsauko chechinomwe, mapapiro mana eGiriki anowirirana nemhepo ina dzechitsauko chechisere, uye misoro mina yeGiriki inowirirana nedzimwe huna dzakakurumbira.

Kusiyanisa kwepfungwa iyi kwakakosha kuti kuonekwe, nokuti kunomirira nharo iyo vaMillerite vaiva nayo pamusoro pemanzwisisiro echinyakare evaPurotesitendi pamusoro poumambo hwechina hweRoma.

Pa matafura a Habakuki, anomiririrwa nemachati evapiyona a1843 nea1850, pane mufananidzo mumwe chete usiri kuratidza kushandiswa kwechiporofita, uye une chokuita nokusiyanisa pakati pemisoro mina neane mukurumbira, pamwe chete namapapiro mana nemhepo. Mukuedza kuvanza chokwadi chokuti Roma ndiyo umambo hwechina hwechiporofita cheBhaibheri, Satani akaunza nharo pamusoro pezvinorehwa zvechokwadi kana zvenhema zvemisoro mina neane mukurumbira, uye mapapiro mana nemhepo. Satani akaita saizvozvo nokuti bhuku raDanieri rinonyatsoratidza pachena kuti mune chiratidzo chimwe chakasiyana mubhuku raDanieri chakagadza chiratidzo chacho. Chikamu cheumboo hunosimbisa chiratidzo ichocho chiri mumisoro mina neane mukurumbira, uye mapapiro mana nemhepo. MaPurotesitendi akatsigira maonero aSatani pamusoro penharo iyi, uye nharo yacho yakanga yakakosha zvikuru munhoroondo yechiMillerite zvokuti vakaisa chirevo chenharo yacho pachati. Simba rinogadza chiratidzo che“chazon” mubhuku raDanieri rinonzi “mbavha dzavanhu vako,” uye maPurotesitendi akaratidza simba iroro somumwe wavakatevedzana kwenguva refu wamadzimambo eSiria ainzi Antiochus Epiphanes, asi Miller akavaratidza seRoma.

Uye munguva idzodzo vazhinji vachamukira mambo wokumaodzanyemba; navapambi vavanhu vako vachazvikudza kuti vasimbise chiratidzo; asi vachawa. Danieri 11:14.

Antiyokiya waiva mumwe wamadzimambo, mumutsara wamadzimambo wakabva muumwe hwoumambo huna uhwo umambo hwaAlekzanda hwakanga hwaparara hukavaihwo. Nyanga duku yaDanieri 8, ndima 9, yakatevera umambo hwaAlekzanda, uye ndima 9 inoti, kubva muumwe hwadzo, kwakabuda nyanga duku.

Uye kubva kune rimwe rawo kwakabuda runyanga ruduku, rukakura kwazvo, rwakananga kumaodzanyemba, nokumabvazuva, nokunyika inofadza. Danieri 8:9.

Nkhani yakuti kodi Roma ndi imene ikhazikitsa masomphenyawo, kapena mfumu ya ku Siriya yofooka ndiponso yosafunikira kwambiri ndi imene ikhazikitsa masomphenyawo, imaphatikizaponso nkhani yakuti kodi mphamvu ya nyanga yaying’ono inatuluka mwa imodzi ya nyanga zinayi, kapena mwa umodzi wa mphepo zinayi. Iyi si nkhani ya mkangano waukulu, pakuti mbiri ndi uneneri zikuwonekeratu kuti Roma sinali mbadwa ya ufumu wa Agiriki, koma kuti Roma inali mphamvu yatsopano. Ngati Roma inali ufumu wachinayi, pamenepo mawu akuti “chimodzi mwa izo” a pa vesi lachisanu ndi chinayi ayenera kukhala chimodzi mwa mphepo zinayi kapena mapiko anayi. Ngati anali Antiochus Epiphanes, inatuluka mu nyanga ya Siriya.

AmaMillerite aqaphela ukuthi amandla amelwe ngokuthi “izigcwelegcwele zabantu bakini” ayeyovukela uKristu.

Uye nehurongwa hwake achabudirira kunyengera muruoko rwake; uye achazvikudza mumwoyo make, uye norugare achaparadza vazhinji; achasimukirawo kurwisa Muchinda wamachinda; asi achaputswa asina ruoko. Danieri 8:25.

Nhasi VaAdventist vari kudzidzisa kuti “vapambi vavanhu vako” ndiAntiochus Epiphanes, sezvinoitawo chiPurotesitendi chakatsauka pakutenda, kunyange hazvo kufemerwa kwakanyora kuti “chati ya1843 yakatungamirirwa noruoko rwaShe uye haifaniri kuchinjwa.” VaMillerite vaiziva kuti mambo wechiso chine utsinye aiva Roma, naizvozvo havana kuzununguswa nedzidziso yaSatani inoparadza kugona kusimbisa chiratidzo che “chazon.” Bhaibheri rakajeka kuti kana pasina chiratidzo, vanhu vanoparara.

Panapo pasina chiono, vanhu vanoparara; asi unochengeta murayiro, anofara iye. Zvirevo 29:18.

Chiono chinozivikanwa naSoromoni mundima iyi ndiwo muono we“chazon,” uyo, mundima yegumi nenhatu yaDanieri 8, uri muono unoratidza chihedheni noupapapa zvichitsika-tsika pasi nzvimbo tsvene nehondo. Kune vaMillerite, masimba maviri iwayo anoparadza aimiririra umambo hwechina hwechiporofita cheBhaibheri, uye pasina kuziva umambo hwechina hweRoma (makororo avanhu vako), vangadai vasina kukwanisa kusimbisa muono. “Makororo avanhu vako” ari mundima yegumi nechina yaDanieri 11, aifanira kusimuka achipikisa mambo wokumaodzanyemba, azvikudze, asimbise muono, uye awire pasi. Roma yakazadzisa chimwe nechimwe chezviratidzo izvozvo.

Mu chikamu chechinomwe, umambo hwechina hunonyatsotsanangurwa sechihombe “chasiyana” nehumambo hwakahutanga kuripfuura.

Shure kwaizvozvi ndakaona muzviratidzo zvousiku, uye tarirai, chikara chechina, chinotyisa nechokutyisa kwazvo, uye chine simba guru zvikuru; uye chakanga chine meno makuru esimbi: chakadya, chikapwanya kuita zvidimbu, chikatsika zvakasara netsoka dzacho: uye chakanga chakasiyana nezvikara zvose zvakanga zviri pamberi pacho; uye chakanga chine nyanga gumi…. Ipapo ndakada kuziva chokwadi pamusoro pechikara chechina, chakanga chakasiyana nezvimwe zvose, chinotyisa kwazvo, chine meno esimbi, nezvipikiri zvendarira; icho chakadya, chikapwanya kuita zvidimbu, chikatsika zvakasara netsoka dzacho; Uye pamusoro penyanga gumi dzakanga dziri mumusoro wacho, uye pamusoro peimwe yakazouya, yakaita kuti nhatu dziwire pasi pamberi payo; iyo nyanga yakanga ina maziso, nomuromo waitaura zvinhu zvikuru kwazvo, uye chiso chayo chaipfuura shamwari dzayo pakuzvikudza. Danieri 7:7, 19, 20.

Humambo hwechina hwaDhanieri chitsauko 7 hwakaziviswa kaviri sechinhu chaiva “chakasiyana” nehumambo hwakahutangira. Kana “nyanga duku” yendima 9 yakanga iri kungova kuenderera mberi kwenyanga yeSiria (Antiochus Epiphanes), ingadai isina kunge yakasiyana. Zvikara zvakapfuura Roma muchitsauko 7 zvaiva shumba, bere, nembada, zvose zviri mhuka dzinowanikwa chaizvo muzvisikwa; asi pakasvika pachikara chechina chaiva nameno esimbi nezvipikiri zvendarira, Dhanieri akanga asingazivi mhuka ipi neipi yezvisikwa yaigona kumirira chikara chinotyisa chaiparadza nokumedza. Chaiva chakasiyana (diverse). “Nyanga duku” yendima 9 yakabuda kubva kune imwe yenzvimbo dzaimiririrwa nemhepo ina namapapiro, kwete kubva kune imwe yenyanga kana kune vane mukurumbira.

Mubhuku raDanieri chitsauko 8, rinoti “panguva yokupedzisira youmambo hwavo, apo vadariki vachinge vasvika pakuzara, mambo ane chiso chinotyisa, anonzwisisa zvirevo zvine rima, achasimuka.” Mu“nguva yokupedzisira youmambo hwavo” (Girisi, yakanga yaparara ikava umambo huna), munguva iyo “vadariki vachinge vasvika pakuzara,” mambo mutsva aizosimuka.

“Lizwe rinhi na rihi rakapinda pachikuva chezviitiko rakabvumirwa kutora nzvimbo yarwo panyika, kuti zvizivikanwe kana raizoita zvinangwa zveMurindi neMutsvene. Chiporofita chakatevedza kumuka nokufambira mberi kwehumambo hukuru hwenyika—Bhabhironi, Medho nePezhiya, Girisi, neRoma. Pane rimwe nerimwe rawo, sezvakangoitawo pamarudzi ane simba shoma, nhoroondo yakazvidzokorora. Rimwe nerimwe rakava nenguva yarwo yokuedzwa; rimwe nerimwe rakakundikana, kubwinya kwaro kukasvava, simba raro rikabva.” Prophets and Kings, 535.

Panguva yokuguma (“nguva yokupedzisira”) yeumambo hweGirisi, apo mukombe wenguva yavo yokuedzwa wakanga wazadzwa (“kana vadariki vasvika pakuzara”), “mambo ane chiso chinotyisa” aizomuka. Mambo iyeye aizonzwisisa “zvirevo zvakasviba,” nokuti aizotaura mutauro wakasiyana zvachose neChiHebheru chevaJudha kana ChiGiriki cheumambo hwakanga hwapfuura, nokuti aizotaura ChiRatini. Umambo ihwohwo hwakanga hwazivikanwa naMozisi sorudzi rwaizounza kukombwa kwamakore a66 kusvika 70 AD, apo, pakati pezvimwe zvinhu, nzara yakanga yakaipisisa zvokuti vaJudha vakadya vana vavo vamene kuti vararame.

Nokuti iwe usina kushumira Jehovha Mwari wako nomufaro, uye nomwoyo unofara, pamusana peuwandu hwezvinhu zvose; naizvozvo uchashumira vavengi vako vachatumirwa naJehovha kuzorwa newe, munzara, munyota, mukushama, nokushayiwa zvinhu zvose; uye iye achaisa joko resimbi pamutsipa pako, kusvikira akuparadza. Jehovha achauyisa rudzi kuzorwa newe ruchibva kure, kubva kumigumo yenyika, ruchimhanya nokukurumidza sokubhururuka kunoita gondo; rudzi rune rurimi rwauchasaziva; rudzi rune chiso chinotyisa, rusingazoremekedzi mutana, kana kuitira nyasha muduku; uye ruchadya zvibereko zvemombe dzako nezvibereko zvenyika yako, kusvikira waparadzwa; uye harungakusiyiri zviyo, kana waini, kana mafuta, kana kuwanda kwemombe dzako, kana mapoka amakwai ako, kusvikira rakaparadza. Uye ruchakukomba pamasuo ako ose, kusvikira masvingo ako akakwirira akasimbiswa awira pasi, awaivimba nawo munyika yako yose; uye ruchakukomba pamasuo ako ose munyika yako yose, yawakapiwa naJehovha Mwari wako. Uye uchadya zvibereko zvomuviri wako, nyama yavanakomana vako nevanasikana vako, vawakapiwa naJehovha Mwari wako, panguva yokukombwa nokumanikidzwa, zvauchamanikidzirwa nazvo navavengi vako. Dheuteronomio 28:47–53.

Muna Dhanieri chitsauko chechipiri, ushe hwechina hwakafananidzirwa ne“simbi,” uye Mozisi akazivisa “rudzi,” rwaizoisa “joko resimbi” pamusoro pavaJudha. “Rudzi” urwu “rwaizoparadza” vaJudha, uye rwaizova rwunomhanya segondo, iro gondo riri chiratidzo cheRoma. Rwaizova “rudzi” “rune rurimi rwausingazonzwisisi,” nokuti mutauro warwo waizova “zvirevo zvakasviba” kuvaJudha. Rwaizova “rudzi rune chiso chinotyisa,” sezvinotsanangurwa muna Dhanieri chitsauko chechisere se“mambo ane chiso chinotyisa.” Uye mukati me“kukombwa” kweJerusarema vaJudha vakadya “vanakomana nevanasikana” vavo.

UMiller waqaphela iRoma lobuhedeni njengamandla ayebikezelwe nguMose, nanjengombuso wesine “wensimbi” kaDaniyeli ezimbili, futhi njengaleso “sizwe” esasikhuluma isiLatini, hhayi isiHebheru noma isiGreki. UMiller akazange enze mehluko phakathi kombuso wesine nowesihlanu wesiprofetho seBhayibheli, ngoba kuye yomibili yayimane nje iyiRoma. Ngakho-ke, emva kokuba iRoma lobuhedeni limile evesini lamashumi amabili nantathu, wayengeke abone umehluko ovezwa evesini lamashumi amabili nane. Embonweni uphondo oluncane lwaluguquguquka lusuka kowesilisa luye kowesifazane, bese lubuyela kowesilisa, luphinde luye kowesifazane emavesini ayisishiyagalolunye kuya kweleshumi nambili, futhi ivesi lamashumi amabili nantathu lichaza izimpawu zesiprofetho zeRoma lobuhedeni; ukuhumusha kukaGabriyeli evesini lamashumi amabili nane kushintsha kuye eRoma lowesifazane. Amandla asevesini lamashumi amabili nane kwakufanele abe “namandla amakhulu,” “kodwa kungabi ngamandla akhe siqu: uyakuchitha ngendlela emangalisayo, aphumelele, enze, achithe abanamandla nabantu abangcwele.”

Roma ya Upapa ilipaswa kupewa nguvu za kijeshi za Roma ya kipagani, nayo ingewaharibu watu wa Mungu kwa muda wa miaka elfu moja mia mbili sitini, kuanzia mwaka 538 hadi 1798. Ingeharibu “kwa ajabu,” kwa maana ndicho mnyama ambaye ulimwengu wote “humstaajabia,” nayo ndiyo iliyokuwa mamlaka ambayo “ingetenda na kufanikiwa” mpaka ghadhabu ya kwanza iliyokuwa “imeamriwa” ikamilike mwaka 1798 ilipotimizwa.

Zvino mundima makumi maviri neshanu Gabhurieri anotevera kuchinjachinja kwakanga kwatovambwa mumavhesi aainge achidudzira kuna Dhanieri, uye zvakare anotaurira Roma yechihedheni, iyo kubudikidza nerumwe rudzi rwe“zano,” yakaunganidza humambo hwayo, sezvinopupurirwa nevanyori venhoroondo vose. “Hunyengeri” hweRoma yechihedheni hwaiva hwekukurudzira marudzi kuti abatane nehumambo hwayo hwaikura, uye yakashandisa chivimbiso cherugare nebudiriro pakuvaka humambo, kusiyana nehumambo hwakapfuura hwaingovakwa chete nesimba rehondo. Roma yechihedheni yaifanirawo “kumukira Muchinda wamachinda,” sezvayakaita payakaisa Kristu pamuchinjikwa weKarivhari.

Ipapo Gabriel anobva ataura pamusoro pezviono zviviri zvaakanga achidudzira kuna Danieri, nokusimbisa kuti chiono che“mareh” chekuonekwa (mazuva ane zviuru zviviri namazana matatu) chakanga chiri chechokwadi, uye kuti chiono che“chazon” chokutsikirirwa pasi kwenzvimbo tsvene nehondo neRoma yechihedheni neRoma yepapa chaifanira “kuvharwa (kuiswa chisimbiso),” “kwamazuva mazhinji” (kusvikira panguva yokuguma muna 1798).

Muna Dhanieri chitsauko chipfumbamwe, Dhanieri akanga achidzidza Shoko rechiporofita uye akasvika pakunzwisisa kubudikidza nezvakanyorwa naMozisi naJeremia. Jeremia akanga aratidza kuti hutapwa hwaaiva mahuri hwaizogara makore makumi manomwe.

Uye nyika iyi yose ichava dongo nechinhu chinokatyamadza; uye ndudzi idzi dzichashandira mambo weBhabhironi makore makumi manomwe.

Jeremia 25:11, 12.

Mukubwirana na Mose, ubunyage mu gihugu c’umwansi bwari kuzobangikanywa n’igihe igihugu cozoronkerako kwiruhukira amasabato yaco.

Ndzi ta endla leswaku tiko ri va rhumbi; kutani valala va n’wina lava tshamaka eka rona va ta hlamala hikwalaho ka rona.
