Loluphi Usuku Lweveki OluyiSabatha eBhayibhileni?

UThixo umisele usuku lokunqula abantu

abakholwayo kuye.

“Khumbula umhla weSabatha, ukuba

uwungcwalise.”Eks 20:8

Umhla weSabatha ngumqondiso phakathi koThixo

nabantu bakhe.Yimini yokuba uThixo enze abantu

bakhe babe ngcwele (Hez 20:12). Ngoko ke, abantu

bakaThixo bafanele ukuwugcina umhla

weSabatha uThixo awumiseleyo njengosuku

lwenkonzo.

ISabatha ngumhla uThixo awadala ngawo amazulu

nomhlaba kangangeentsuku ezintandathu waza

waphumla ngomhla wesixhenxe. (Genesis 2:3)

Umhla wesixhenxe iSabatha lusuku lwesikhumbuzo

samandla okudala kaThixo.

Ngoko ke, loluphi usuku lweveki oluyimini

yesixhenxe? NgeCawe: usuku lokuqala lweveki

NgoMgqibelo: usuku lwesixhenxe evekini

Izichazi-magama zirekhoda ukuba usuku

lwesixhenxe nguMgqibelo.Xa sibona ikhalenda

usuku lwesixhenxe iSabatha, nguMgqibelo.

IBhayibhile ithi uYesu wavuswa ekufeni ngomhla

wokuqala weveki (Marko 16:9).

Kwale ndinyana, iBhayibhile Entsha Elungileyo

ithi uYesu wavuka ngeCawa. (Marko 16:9)

Ngoko ke, ngowuphi umhla weveki oyiSabatha?

ISabatha ingoMgqibelo.

Iincwadi zamaKatolika nazo ziyangqina ukuba

umhla weSabatha nguMgqibelo.

“IZibhalo ziyayinyanzelisa isikhumbuzo sonqulo

sangoMgqibelo, usuku esingalungcwalisiyo.”

“Igama elithi iSabatha lithetha ukuphumla,

kwaye nguMgqibelo umhla wesixhenxe weveki.”

NoYesu wayenqula ngeSabatha [ngoMgqibelo].

“Wafika eNazarete, . . . wangena ngokwesiko

lakhe ngomhla wesabatha endlwini yesikhungu.”

Luka 4:16

Emva kokuba uYesu enyukile, uMpostile uPawulosi

naye wayenqula ngomhla weSabatha [uMgqibelo].

“Ngokwesiko ke likaPawulos wangena kuwo;

waye iisabatha ezintathu exoxa nawo, ethabatha

ezibhalweni, etyhila, . . . ”IZe 17:2

Kanye njengokuba uYesu nabafundi bakhe

babewugcina umhla weSabatha [uMgqibelo],

Abantu bakaThixo bafanele bawugcine umhla

weSabatha [uMgqibelo] lowo wawunyulwe

nguThixo.Umbutho Womsebenzi Welizwe
