UEHezekile umele abo benzelwe umsebenzi wokuyalelwa yiNgonyama yesizwe sakwaYuda, yaye umyalelo waYo osisiseko “ngumgca phezu komgca.”
Wathi kubo, Le yiyo indawo yokuphumla eninokuthi ngayo nibaphumuze abadiniweyo; kwaye oku kukuhlaziyeka; kanti abazange bafune ukuva. Kodwa ilizwi leNkosi laba kubo umthetho phezu komthetho, umthetho phezu komthetho; umgca phezu komgca, umgca phezu komgca; apha intwana, khona intwana; ukuze bahambe, bawe ngasemva, baphulwe, babanjiswe ngumgibe, bathinjwe. Isaya 28:12, 13.
Ngoku iNgonyama yesizwe sakwaYuda ivula incwadi kaHezekile. Saziswa ukuba uHezekile ungumbingeleli kunyaka wamashumi amathathu, nokuba “amashumi amathathu” amele iminyaka yakhe engokomfuziselo njengombingeleli, okanye unyaka wamashumi amathathu kumgca wesiprofeto owaqalayo ngePasika Enkulu kaYosiya. Ububingeleli bokugqibela bemihla yokugqibela ngabaliwaka elinamakhulu alikhulu anamashumi amane anesine amawaka, yaye iimbali zakudala ezingokoqobo zifanekisela imbali engokomfuziselo yemihla yokugqibela.
Ke nina niya kubizwa ngokuba ngabaPristi bakaYehova; abantu baya kunibiza ngokuba ningabaPhathiswa boThixo wethu; niya kudla ubutyebi beeNtlanga, nize niziqhayise ngobuqaqawuli bazo. Isaya 61:6.

Incwadi Encinane
UEzekiyeli uthabatha incwadi encinane, njengoko noYohane wenzayo kwisiTyhilelo seshumi.
Kodwa wena, nyana womntu, yiva oko ndikuthethayo kuwe; musa ukuba nemvukelo njengaloo ndlu inemvukelo; vula umlomo wakho, uze udle oko ndikunika kona. Ndathi ke ndakukhangela, nanko kusolulwa isandla siza kum; yaye, khangela, kwakukho kuso umqulu wencwadi; wawusasaza phambi kwam; wawubhaliwe ngaphakathi nangaphandle; yaye kwakubhalwe kuwo izililo, nokuzila, nesijwili. Waphinda wathi kum, Nyana womntu, yidla oko ukufumanayo; yidla lo mqulu, uhambe uye kuthetha nendlu kaSirayeli. Ndaza ndawuvula umlomo wam, wandondla loo mqulu. Wathi kum, Nyana womntu, yenza isisu sakho sidle, uzalise amathumbu akho ngalo mqulu ndikunika wona. Ndawudla ke; emlonyeni wam wawumnandi njengobusi. Hezekile 2:8–10, 3:1–3.

“Ingelosi emanyaniswa ekubhengezweni kwesigidimi sengelosi yesithathu iya kukhanyisa umhlaba wonke ngobuqaqawuli bayo. Apha kuxelwe kwangaphambili umsebenzi wobungakanani behlabathi liphela nowamandla angazange aqheleke. Intshukumo ye-advent ka-1840–44 yaba kukubonakalaliswa okuzukileyo kwamandla kaThixo; isigidimi sengwelekileyo yokuqala sathwalwa saya kuzo zonke izikhululo zovangelo ehlabathini, yaye kwamanye amazwe kwabakho owona mdla mkhulu wezenkolo wakha wabonwa nakweliphi na ilizwe ukususela kuHlaziyo lwenkulungwane yeshumi elinesithandathu; kodwa ezi ziya kudluliswa yintshukumo enamandla ephantsi kwesilumkiso sokugqibela sengwelekileyo yesithathu.” The Great Controversy, 611.
uHezekile ulungelelaniswe noYohane kwisahluko seshumi seSityhilelo, ngoko ke uPetros, uYohane noHezekile bema kunye kwindawo abayabelweyo ngexesha lokutywinwa kwekhulu elinamashumi amane anesine amawaka.
U-1840 ukuya ku-1844 umele isithuba seminyaka emine esaqala xa isiprofeto sexesha esaqala ngesithuba seminyaka elikhulu elinamashumi amahlanu ngomhla wama-27 kuJulayi, 1299. Ezo “nyanga zintlanu” zaphela zaza zadityaniswa nesiprofeto sexesha seminyaka engamakhulu amathathu anamashumi alithoba ananye neentsuku ezilishumi elinesihlanu esaphelela ngomhla we-11 kuAgasti, 1840, xa ukubonakaliswa okuzukileyo kwamandla kaThixo kwabonakaliswa kwada kwangumhla wama-22 kuOktobha, 1844. Emva koko ukusetyenziswa kwexesha lesiprofeto kwaphela.
Wafunga ngesifungo ngaye ophilayo ngonaphakade kanaphakade, owadala izulu, nezinto ezikulo, nomhlaba, nezinto ezikuwo, nolwandle, nezinto ezikulo, esithi akusayi kubakho xesha. ISityhilelo 10:6.
Ixesha lesiprofeto laphela njengokusetyenziswa okusemthethweni kwesiprofeto ngomhla wama-22 Oktobha 1844. UEzekile, uPetros noYohane ngamnye umele iintombi ezizizilumko zikaThixo zentshukumo yezithunywa zokuqala nezesiBini, kwanentshukumo yesithunywa sesiThathu.
Imibono
Izahluko “ezilishumi elinanye” zokuqala zikaHezekile zinikela uthotho “lwemibono” njengoko kubekiwe kwindima yokuqala yesahluko sokuqala.
Kwathi ke ngomnyaka wamashumi amathathu, ngenyanga yesine, ngomhla wesihlanu wenyanga, ndakuba ndiphakathi kwabathinjwa ngasemlanjeni waseKebhare, amazulu avuleka, ndabona imibono kaThixo. Hezekile 1:1.
“Imibono” yezahluko ezilishumi elinanye zokuqala yaqala ukunikwa kwisahluko sokuqala ngasemlanjeni iKebhare, yandulelwa ukwandiswa kumbono wesahluko sesithathu “ethafeni,” yaza yaphinda kwakhona kumbono wesahluko sesibhozo eYerusalem. Ezi ndawo zintathu—umlambo iKebhare, ithafa, neYerusalem—zimele imibono emithathu ethi xa idityanisiwe yenze umbono omnye, ongulo “imibono” yendinyana yokuqala nowezahluko zokuqala ‘ezilishumi elinanye’.

“Kulo lonke iphepha, nokuba yimbali, okanye ngumyalelo, okanye sisiprofeto, iZibhalo zeTestamente eNdala zikhazimliswa bubuqaqawuli boNyana kaThixo. Kangangokuba yayiyeyokumiselwa nguThixo, yonke inkqubo yobuYuda yayisisiprofeto esibumbeneyo seendaba ezilungileyo. NgoKristu “bonke abaprofeti bayamngqinela.” IZenzo 10:43. Ukusuka kwisithembiso esanikwa uAdam, kuye kutsho phantsi ngomnombo woosolusapho nangolawulo lomthetho, ukukhanya okuzukileyo kwezulu kwenza zacaca iinyawo zoMhlawuleli. Iimboni zambona iNkwenkwezi yaseBhetelehem, uShilo owayeza kuza, njengoko izinto ezizayo zazidlula phambi kwazo ngoluhlu oluyimfihlakalo. Kulo lonke idini ukufa kukaKristu kwaboniswa. Kulo lonke ilifu lesiqhumiso ubulungisa baKhe benyuka. Ngalowo nalowo umbhobho wonyaka wenkululeko igama laKhe lavakaliswa. Kwimfihlelo eyoyikekayo yeyona ngcwele kwezona zingcwele ubuqaqawuli baKhe babuhlala.” The Desire of Ages, 211.

Ngokuba abantwana bakaSirayeli baya kuhlala iintsuku ezininzi bengenakumkani, bengenankosana, bengenambingelelo, bengenamfanekiso, bengenayefodi, bengenaterafim: Emveni koko abantwana bakaSirayeli baya kubuya, bamfune uYehova uThixo wabo, noDavide ukumkani wabo; boyike uYehova nokulunga kwakhe ngemihla yokugqibela.

Ke kaloku ukuba, ngenxa yako konke oku, anisayi kundiphulaphula, ndiya kunohlwaya kasixhenxe ngakumbi ngenxa yezono zenu. Ndiya kuqhekeza ikratshi lamandla enu; yaye ndiya kwenza izulu lenu libe njengentsimbi, nomhlaba wenu ube njengobhedu. Levitikus 26:18, 19.

Ngokwesiprofeto ikratshi lamandla akwaYuda laphulwa xa uManase wayesuswa esiwa ekuthinjweni eBhabheli, yaye uYuda waba phantsi kolawulo lwamandla asemzini ukususela ngelo xesha ukuya phambili. UZedekiya umele isiphelo sokugqibela sokwaphulwa okuqhubekayo kwekratshi lamandla abo.
Kwathi ke, ekubeni uSamuweli eseluphele, wabeka oonyana bakhe baba ngabagwebi bakwaSirayeli. Igama lezibulo lakhe lalinguYoweli; negama lowesibini, linguAbhiya; babengabagwebi eBher-shebha. Ke kaloku oonyana bakhe abahambanga ngeendlela zakhe, kodwa baphambukela kwinzuzo embi, bathabatha izinyobo, baza bagqwetha ukugweba. Zaza zonke iinkulu zakwaSirayeli zahlanganisana, zeza kuSamuweli eRama, zathi kuye, Yabona, wena uluphele, noonyana bakho abahambi ngeendlela zakho; ke ngoku simisele ukumkani, asigwebe, njengazo zonke iintlanga. Kodwa loo nto yamkhathaza uSamuweli, xa babesithi, Siphe ukumkani asigwebe. Wathandaza ke uSamuweli kuYehova. Wathi uYehova kuSamuweli, Lithobele izwi labantu kuko konke abakuthethayo kuwe; kuba abagibanga wena, bagibe mna, ukuze ndingabi ngukumkani phezu kwabo. Ngokwemisebenzi yonke abayenzileyo, kususela mini ndabanyusayo eYiputa kwada kwanamhlanje, abandishiye ngayo, bakhonza thixo bambi, benjenjalo nakuwe. Ngoko ke ngoku lithobele izwi labo; noko ke uze ubangqine ngokuqinileyo, ubabonise isiko lokumkani oya kuba ngukumkani phezu kwabo. 1 Samuweli 8:1–9.
Kufanele kuqatshelwe ukuba ngelo xesha uSirayeli akazange amale uThixo njengokumkani wabo kuphela, kodwa wamala noMoya weSiprofeto, njengoko wayemelwe nguSamuweli; kuba kuthiwa, “bandishiyile, bakhonza abanye oothixo, benjenjalo nakuwe.”
“USathana u... usoloko enyanzelisa okobuxoki—ukuze akhokelele abantu bemke enyanisweni. Inkohliso yokugqibela kanye kaSathana iya kuba kukwenza ubungqina boMoya kaThixo bungabi nampembelelo. ‘Apho kungekho mbono, abantu bayatshabalala’ (IMizekeliso 29:18). USathana uya kusebenza ngobuqili obukhulu, ngeendlela ezahlukeneyo nangamajelo ahlukeneyo, ukuze aphazamise ukuthembela kwabantu abaseleyo bakaThixo kubungqina benyaniso.
“Kuya kubakho intiyo eya kuvuthelwa nxamnye neziBungqina, eyobutshaba bukaSathana. Izenzo zikaSathana ziya kuba zezokuphazamisa ukholo lwamabandla kuzo, ngenxa yesi sizathu: uSathana akanako ukuba nendlela ecace kangako yokungenisa iinkohliso zakhe aze abophe imiphefumlo kwiinkohliso zakhe ukuba izilumkiso nokukhalimela neengcebiso zoMoya kaThixo ziyathathelwa ingqalelo.” Selected Messages, incwadi 1, 48.
Inkohliso yokugqibela yolawulo lukaThixo lukaSirayeli wamandulo yayikukwala kungekhona uThixo kuphela, kodwa kwanangoMoya wesiProfeto. Oko kwaliwa ngo-1097 BC kufanekisela inkohliso yokugqibela yoBuseventh-day Adventism baseLaodikea ngo-1863. “Izihlandlo ezisixhenxe” zikaLevitikus amashumi amabini anesithandathu ziliLizwi likaThixo, yaye uMoya wesiProfeto uthi ngezo “zihlandlo ezisixhenxe” “akufanele zitshintshwe.”
“Ndibonile ukuba itshathi ka-1843 yayikhokelwa sisandla seNkosi, yaye yayingafanele kuguqulwe nto kuyo; ukuba amanani ayenjalo njengoko Yona yayifuna ukuba abe njalo; nokuba isandla saYo sasiphezu kwawo saza safihla impazamo kwamanye amanani, ukuze kungabikho bani unokuyibona, de kususwe isandla saYo.” Early Writings, 74.

UZedekiya wathinjwa wasiwa eBhabheli kwiminyaka elishumi elinesine ngaphambi kweNtlawulo yeNkululeko ka-573 BC. Umjikelo weshumi elinesixhenxe weNtlawulo yeNkululeko waqala ngo-622 BC, yaye ngonyaka wamashumi amathathu uHezekile ubekwe njengombingeleli ngo-592 BC, kwaza emva kweminyaka emihlanu iYerusalem yatshatyalaliswa ngo-586 BC. Yatshatyalaliswa ngolo suku lunye lonyaka njengoko yatshatyalaliswa ngalo okwesibini ngo-AD 70 nguTito. Ivesi yokuqala kaHezekile isahluko sokuqala yiminyaka emihlanu ngaphambi kokutshatyalaliswa kweYerusalem, yaye yiminyaka elishumi elinesithoba ngaphambi kombono wetempile wesahluko samashumi amane.
Ngomnyaka wamashumi amabini anesihlanu wokuthinjwa kwethu, ekuqaleni komnyaka, ngomhla weshumi wenyanga, ngomnyaka weshumi elinesine emva kokuba umzi ubethiwe, kwangolo suku kanye isandla seNkosi saba phezu kwam, sandizisa apho. Hezekile 40:1.

Isiseko setempile eyakhiwa kwakhona emva kobukhoboka baseBhabheli sagqitywa kwimbali yomthetho wokuqala, yaye phambi komthetho wesibini. Itempile yakhiwa ngokupheleleyo kwimbali yomthetho wesibini. Kumthetho wesithathu ubukhosi besizwe babuyiselwa kuSirayeli wamandulo ongokoqobo. UWilliam Miller wayemele ingelosi yokuqala eyafika ngowe-1798 yaza yanikwa amandla ngo-Agasti 11, 1840. Ingelosi yesibini yafika emva kokuba iziseko zibekiwe, njengoko kumelwe yitshathi yowe-1843, eyapapashwa ngoMeyi ka-1842. Ekudanisweni kokuqala kowe-1844, ukudana kwe-alpha kowe-1844, ingelosi yesibini, kwanexesha lokulibala kumzekeliso weentombi, zafika, yaye xa isigidimi sengwe losi yesibini sanikwa amandla kwintlanganiso yenkampu yase-Exeter itempile yagqitywa. Ke ngoko ekudanisweni okukhulu, okanye kwe-omega, kowe-1844, uMthunywa woMnqophiso weza ngesiquphe etempileni yaKhe, ekuzalisekisweni kweminyaka engamakhulu amabini anamashumi amathathu eyaqala ngomthetho wesithathu yaza yaphela ngokufika kwengelosi yesithathu.

UEzekiyeli ngumfuziselo ngaphakathi kwimbali yesiprofeto emelwe kwimibhalo yakhe. UEzekiyeli ukho apho xa amadoda angamashumi amabini anesihlanu equbuda elangeni ekupheleni kwesahluko sesibhozo. Wayekhona kananjalo kwizahluko ezilandelayo njengoko “ukutywinwa okulandelwa kukuxhelwa” kuziswa phezu kweYerusalem, leyo uEllen White ayichaza njengebandla lamaSabatha osuku lwesixhenxe. Kwizahluko zokuqala ezilishumi elinanye, uEzekiyeli uziswa engcweleni yasezulwini ukuze amkele imiyalelo yakhe, njengoko kwakubizwe namaMillerite ukuba enze ngowe-1844, kwananjengoko le ntshukumo ngoku ibizelwa ukwenza njalo.
Ngoko ke uHezekile ngumqondiso kuni; ngokwako konke akwenzileyo, niya kwenza nani; yaye xa oku kusenzeka, niya kwazi ukuba ndiyiNkosi uThixo. Hezekile 24:24.
Xa Oku Kusenzeka
Xa sifika kuloo ndawo ngemihla yokugqibela apho izinto ezabonakaliswa nguHezekile ziphinda zenzeke phakathi kwabantu bakaThixo, ngoko sifikelele kumqondiso kaHezekile. Xa usazi ukuba uHezekile umele ikhulu elinamashumi amane anesine amawaka, yaye ukwazi oko kwinqanaba lokholo nokuqonda elinolo lindelo lungcwalisiweyo lokuba yonke into eyabonakaliswa nguHezekile ezibhalweni zakhe ifuzisela ulandelelwano olungcwele lweziganeko ngemihla yokugqibela ezibandakanya ikhulu elinamashumi amane anesine amawaka—xa ukwazi oko, ngoko “niya kwazi” ukuba “iNkosi” “inguThixo.”
Siya kuqhubekekisa ezi ngcinga kwinqaku elilandelayo.
