Ukujonga kwikhalenda yecawa ngo-Agasti 28, unokubona lo mhla ukhankanywe ngombala. Emva kokubheka inkcazo, kulula ukufumanisa ukuba usuku lokuThatyathwa kweNtombikazi lugubha, kodwa lithetha ntoni igama elithi "ukuthandwa"? Yintoni ukufa nokuvuka komphefumlo? Mhlawumbi, abaninzi abayayazi impendulo kule nto, njengembali yeeholide. Makhe sizame ukukhetha oku kunye.

Zithethe zeCawa

Ukususela kumazwi eZibhalo ezingcwele umntu uyazi ukuba, emva kokunyuka kwendodana yakhe uYesu Kristu ezulwini, uMama kaThixo wayehlala enyamekelwa nguSt. John.

Uninzi lweengcamango zecawa zichaza i-Assumption ngeendlela ezahlukeneyo, yintoni uvuko lomphefumlo, ukuzalwa kombhiyozo wokufa. Amasiko kunye nemithetho yokubhiyozela i-Assumption ayigcini kakhulu kwizibhalo, njengokuba zizonke izihlandlo eziphambili zomzila wehlabathi woMama kaThixo.

Kwakhona, kuyo yonke imbali engcwele yeTestamente eNtsha, wonke umntu uyazi ukuba uMama kaThixo wayehlonipheke kangakanani kubapostile xa wayeseYerusalem.

Ngelishwa, phambi kwethu kwafika imiyalezo embalwa kakhulu yelo xesha. Ngokwenene, ezi zidalwa zaziqokelelwa kwiVangeli eNgcwele kunye neTestamente Elisha.

Ndiyabulela kwizixhobo ezintsha zezinto zakudala, emva kokucubungula okuninzi eJerusalem, indalo kaSt.

La maxwebhu akhankanya ngobomi bukaMama bakaThixo, ambonise ukuThatyathwa, yintoni le siganeko kubantu kunye nembali yonke yelo xesha.

Kule nkcazo (imfihlo ebhaliweyo imbali engangenanga kwi-canon yeBhayibhile) kuthiwa emva kokutshutshiswa kukaKumkani uHerode Agripa ngokumelene neCawa, uMama kaThixo, kunye noYohane weNkolo yamaKhristu, bathuthela kwisixeko sase-Efese ixesha.

Xa intshutshiso yamiswa, uMama kaThixo wabuyela eJerusalem kunye noYohane, apho ahlala khona endlwini yakhe eNtabeni yeZiyon.

Imbali yeeholide

Njengoko umxholo uthi, ngelinye ilanga uMama kaThixo waya eNtabeni yemiNquma ukuba athandaze, wadibana khona nelosi uGiyeli, ingelosi enkulu, esesandleni sakhe kwakusebe yiparadesi yomthi wesundu. Wayeshumayela kwiNtombikazi kaMariya ukuba iintsuku ezintathu emva koko uya kushiywa eZulwini, iNkosi iya kumthabatha, umama wayo, eBukumkani bukaZulwini, apho uya kuba naye ngonaphakade.

Xa ebuyela ekhaya, uMama kaThixo watshela uSt. John malunga nentlanganiso kunye neGabriyeli oyiNtloko uGabriel kunye nokufa kwakhe kwexesha elizayo.

Ngentando yakhe, wacela ukuba angcwatyelwe eGetsemane, ecaleni kwabazali bakhe kunye nomfi, uYosefu olungileyo.

Ukongezelela, kwintando kuye kwaboniswa ukumnika iingubo ezimbini kwiintombi ezihlwempuzekileyo ezazimkhonza ngokumthanda nokusebenza kanzima.

Ukunikezwa kweNtombikazi kaMariya eNkosini

Ukumelwa kweyona nto ingcwele yeTheotokos kwakuza kuza ngomhla we-15 ka-Agasti ngelixa lesithathu lomhla. Ngeli xesha, iibhandlela zazibhedlele etempileni, kwaye uMariya wayelele ebhedeni elihle. Ngethuba elithile, ulwandle lwalukhanyisa iThethempeli, apho uYesu Kristu ngokwakhe wabonakala ngeengelosi, iingelosi zengelosi kunye nawo onke amandla asezulwini, waza waya kwiNtombikazi kaMariya.

Ukubona uNyana, iNtombikazi eyintsikelelo yamxelela ngokuvuyayo, kwaye iNkosi yamkela ngokuthuthumela nokuqhayisa, kwaye, xa evile imvume yakhe, wanika uMoya omsulwa kuye uNyana wakhe oyedwa.

Ngokutsho kweenkolelo zecawa, emva kokufa kukaMama kaThixo, abapostile bafaka isidumbu sakhe ethuneni baza bagcwalisa ukungena kwawo ngelitye elikhulu. Kwiintsuku ezintathu emva kokufa kwakhe, umpostile uTomas wajoyina nabo, ababethuzelayo bethandazela ukuba banike ithuba lokuthetha intombi kaMariya. Ngesicelo sakhe, abapostile baqhayisa ilitye baza bangena naye emqolombeni, kodwa babenjani xa befumene isambatho seNtombikazi, kwaye yena ngokwakhe wayengekhoyo, kwaye emqolombeni kwafika iphunga elimnandi lamnandi.

Umthendeleko kwiTempile

Ukususela kumaxesha amandulo kwaqaliswa ukubhiyozela le holide ngenkonzo yokusa, apho amakholwa azisa khona imbewu yezonka zokukhanyisa kunye nentsikelelo. Kwathi emva kwenkonzo yobusuku ekuphumeni kwelanga.

Kubantu, iNgcwelengcwele iTheotokos ibizwa ngokuba nguMnincikazi, kwaye ukusuka kulo Mthendeleko weDormity ubethe enye igama, uMama woMhla, uMfundisi. Phakathi kwabantu, uMthendeleko woKuzalwa kukaVietnam ubizwa ngokuba yi-Second Unaculate, kunye ne-Assumption yoBonwabileyo ngowokuqala.

Bhiyozelwa kule holide kunye nomthendeleko omkhulu, kunye nebhiya eyenziwe ekhaya, izitya ezicocekileyo kunye neepes.

Ngoko, enye yeyona mihla yokugqibela kunye neyokugqibela yemidlo elineshumi elinesibini yekhalenda yecawa ngo-Agasti yi-Assumption yeNtombi.

Ukubaluleka kokomoya kombhiyozo

Into efana nokufa yayisoloko ibangela ukwesaba, ukuxhalaza, ukumangaliswa kunye nokwesaba emphefumlweni womntu wonke.

Endleleni eya ebomini obungunaphakade, wonke umntu kufuneka ahambe ngendlela yokufunda, amava kunye nolonwabo kwimpilo yehlabathi eqhelekileyo. Ubulungisa bemihla ngemihla, izenzo zethu nezenzo ezichaphazela ubomi obungunaphakade ngonaphakade nolonwabo. Le ngcamango yokufa iyisiseko sokholo lobuKristu.

Ukuba ukhumbule iZibhalo Ezingcwele, ngoko ukufa akuyona into ehloniphekileyo, kodwa, ngokuchaseneyo, inkqubo yokuwa, ukungathobeli komphefumlo kwintando kaThixo.

Ngokwemfundiso yeCawa, imbono yokufa yi-Assumption. Yintoni ukufa? Kutheni ku funeka? Kukhuselekile ukuthetha ukuba uMdali wethu akazange afune ukufa kwabantu, kodwa abantu baqikelele ukusilela nokusisigxina.

Kodwa nangona kwimeko enjalo, sivula amasango eParadesi, apho abo bangaphuli imithetho kaThixo, abahlala bezama ukwenza okulungileyo baze bavuyise kwaye bancede abo bajikelezayo, kuya kuba kufuphi noMdali.

Ukubhiyozela ukufa kweNtombikazi kaMariya

Kwiimpawu, apho i-Dormity of Virgin iboniswa, uKristu uhlala esondele kufuphi nombhede wakhe, ezandleni zakhe encinci yintsana ifanekisela umphefumlo weNtombikazi. Umntwana lo mfanekiso ngumqondiso wokuzalwa kwakhona koMphefumlo emva kokufa kukaNyana wakhe ukuba amkele.

Umlando

Kwileta, ezibhekiselele kwiinkqubo zemiLungu yeCawa yaseMandulo yaseGreek, ukuqala kokubhekiselele kwi-Assumption ye-Virgin kubonakala ekupheleni kwekhulu le-VI.

Abafundisi banomthendeleko kwiingubo eziluhlaza. Inkonzo yecawa iqala ukuhlwa kwaye ihlala ubusuku bonke, kwaye ukususela kwangomso i-Liturgy ye-Assumption ngokwayo ihanjiswa. Ngomhla wesithathu, isigubungelo sibonakalisiwe, sibonakalisa isambatho seNtombikazi kaMariya, njengesigubungelo sikaKristu. Umehluko kuphela apha umfanekiso kuwo uMama kaThixo olele ebhokisini.

Ngokwesiko leCawa, kwintetho yasekuseni, ngaphambi kokuba kungcwatywe ingqungquthela, imithandazo yokudumisa ifundwa, i-kontakion kunye ne-troparion iyavunywa, ilandelwa yinkambo enqabileyo kunye nesigqubuthelo esingaphaya kwetempile.

Njengoko kubonakala kuzo zonke izinto eziye zatsho, ukubaluleka kweholide kukhulu kakhulu. Ukususela kwimbali yakhe, sinokugqiba ukuba indlela yokulunga yobomi ihlala ivuzwa nguMdali wethu.
