Umusa wabantu ongabazi
“Ngibonise kanye nezwe osuyizihambi kulo umusa ofanayo nalowo engakubonisa wona” (1. UMose 21,23).
Izwe kufanele libhekane kanjani nezihambi zalo? Futhi okubaluleke nakakhulu, kufanele siziphathe kanjani uma siyisihambi kwelinye izwe? Kuya 1. UGENESISE 21 U-Abrahama wahlala eGerari. Kubonakala sengathi waphathwa kahle naphezu kwenkohliso u-Abrahama ayenza ku-Abhimeleki inkosi yaseGerari. U-Abrahama wayemtshele iqiniso elingaphelele ngomkakhe uSara ukuze azivikele ekubulaweni. Ngenxa yalokho, u-Abhimeleki wacishe waphinga noSara. Nokho, u-Abimeleki akabuyiselanga okubi ngokubi, kodwa wabuyisela uSara umka-Abrahama kuye. U-Abimeleki wathi: “Bheka, izwe lami lisebusweni bakho; hlala lapho kukuhle emehlweni akho. 1. Ngale ndlela wanika u-Abrahama imvume yokungena embusweni wonke. Wamnika namashekeli ayinkulungwane esiliva ( ivesi 20,15 ).
U-Abrahama wasabela kanjani? Wathandazela umndeni ka-Abimeleki kanye nendlu yakhe ukuba kususwe isiqalekiso sobunyumba kubo. Kodwa u-Abhimeleki wayelokhu esolisa. Mhlawumbe wayebona u-Abrahama njengamandla okufanele acatshangelwe. Ngakho u-Abimeleki wamkhumbuza u-Abrahama indlela yena nezakhamuzi zakhe abamphatha ngayo ngomusa. La madoda amabili enza isivumelwano, ayefuna ukuhlala ndawonye ezweni ngaphandle kobudlova noma ubutha. U-Abrahama wathembisa ukuthi wayengeke esakwazi ukwenza ukukhwabanisa. 1. UMose 21,23 futhi ubonise ukwazisa ngomusa.
Ngemva kwesikhathi eside, uJesu wathi kuLuka 6,31 “Futhi njengoba nithanda ukuba abantu benze kini, yenzani kubo futhi.” Lena incazelo yalokho u-Abimeleki akusho ku-Abrahama. Nasi isifundo kithi sonke: kungakhathaliseki ukuthi singabomdabu noma singabafokazi, kufanele sibe nomusa komunye nomunye.
