Enye yezindaba ezithakazelisa kakhulu zemishini ezindizayo yasendulo ingase itholakale endaweni ongeke uyilindele: iBhayibheli. Ngaphezu kwezincazelo zalokho abaningi abakubheka njengokuqondile kwemishini endizayo, sithola amaqiniso amaningi angajwayelekile mayelana nobuchwepheshe obutolike kabi obabukhona eMhlabeni ezinkulungwaneni zeminyaka edlule.
Encwadini kaHezekeli, umprofethi ubona a “inqola endizayo” lokho kuthiwa kwenziwa ngakho "amasondo angaphakathi kwamasondo" futhi inikwa amandla yiziNgelosi. Ngokwe-Ancient Astronaut Theory, lesi sithenjwa sinikeza ubufakazi obungenakuphikwa bobuchwepheshe bokundiza basendulo.
Ngakolunye uhlangothi, abangabazayo nochwepheshe beBhayibheli baphikisa ngokuthi iNcwadi kaHezekeli ayivezi imishini endizayo engokoqobo, kodwa kunalokho uHezekeli wayebhekisela ezitheni ezesabekayo u-Israyeli ayebhekene nazo.
Kodwa-ke, ama-akhawunti weZinqola Ezindizayo angatholakala kwamanye amasiko ahlukahlukene emhlabeni jikelele, kuhlanganise neSiko Lasendulo LamaHindu. Lokhu kubangela ukukhathazeka okuhlukahlukene. Ingabe kungenzeka ukuthi incwadi kaHezekeli iqukethe izincazelo zezitha eziyinganekwane?
Ingabe kungenzeka, njengoba abanye ababhali bephikisa, ukuthi iNcwadi kaHezekeli inobufakazi bokugcina bokuhanjelwa kwemvelo yasendulo? Futhi ubufakazi bokuthi imishini ezindizayo yayikhona ezinkulungwaneni zeminyaka edlule?
Osomkhathi basendulo noHezekeli
UHezekeli uthathwa njengombhali weNcwadi kaHezekeli wekhulu lesi-6 BCE, equkethe izibikezelo zokuwa kweJerusalema, ukubuyiselwa kuka-Israyeli, nalokho abanye abakubiza ngokuthi imibono yeThempeli Leminyaka Eyinkulungwane noma iThempeli Lesithathu. UHezekeli ubonakala njengomlingiswa kuzo zombili iNcwadi kaHezekeli kanye neBhayibheli lesiHeberu. UHezekeli futhi ungumuntu omkhulu ebuJudeni nakweminye imibhalo yeBhayibheli ka-Abrahama.
Ngokomlando, uHezekeli wafika eBabiloni phakathi nokuthunjwa kuka-Israyeli okokuqala futhi ubalwa njengomprofethi odumile ezincwadini eziningi zasendulo. Igama likaHezekeli lisho ukuthi ‘uNkulunkulu uyaqinisa.’
Iqiniso lokuthi iNcwadi kaHezekeli yalotshwa kumuntu wokuqala ingesinye sezici ezibaluleke kakhulu zencwadi futhi esinye sezizathu ezinkulu zokuthi kungani sikuthatha ngokungathi sína lokho okushiwo encwadini. Lokhu kwakuyinto engiyiqaphelile. Yilokho engikuqaphelile. Ngaya kuleyo ndawo.
Ngokungafani neminye imibhalo eminingi yeBhayibheli, ebhalwe kumuntu wesithathu, le ncwadi ikhuluma ngokuthile okwafakazelwa kumuntu wokuqala. Esinye seziqephu ezibaluleke kakhulu zeNcwadi kaHezekeli yilapho uHezekeli ekhuluma ngokubona “inqola enamasondo” iza kuye ivela ezulwini. Ngaphakathi kule nqola enamasondo kwakukhona izidalwa ezenziwe ngomfanekiso womuntu.
Incwadi kaHezekeli ikhuluma ngenqola eyayikhona "imoto endizayo" ingenazo izindlela ezicacile zokuyiqhubeza, kodwa yayiqhutshwa ngamandla angcwele (amandla asezulwini). Amandla asebenzayo. Amandla anomsindo.
Abantu abaningi bathatha lezo zincazelo njengobuchwepheshe. Esikhathini esidlule abantu babengabufundi kahle ubuchwepheshe besimanje, kodwa kwakuwubuchwepheshe besimanje obabuqondwa kabi. Uma sifunda incwadi kaHezekeli, ikakhulukazi lapho kuxoxwa khona ngenqola yomlilo, sizophawula ukufana kwayo nokuhla komkhumbi-mkhathi wamanje kanye/noma ukumuka.
Kukhona isivunguvungu, ukukhanya kombani, amafu, nezibani, futhi kuwumbono omangalisayo, ikakhulukazi kumuntu owaphila eminyakeni eyizinkulungwane ezimbili edlule. Ngaphezu kwalokho, uHezekeli uveza ukwakheka kwenqola eyehla ezulwini njengokungathi yenziwe ngensimbi evuthayo.
Incwadi kaHezekeli, Izinqola Zomlilo, nemikhumbi-mkhathi
Nakhu okwabhalwa uHezekeli: “Ngabona, ngabona isivunguvungu sivela enyakatho, ifu elikhulu elilomlilo libaneka le nale nokukhanya okukhazimulayo nxazonke zalo. Phakathi komlilo kwakukhona ukukhanya okunjengenhlaka, futhi ngaphakathi kwawo kwakukhona isimo sezidalwa ezine eziphilayo.”
Futhi lokhu kwakuyisimo sabo: Zazinesimo somuntu, kodwa yileso naleso sasinobuso obune namaphiko amane. Imilenze yazo yayiqondile, namathe ezinyawo zazo ayenjengezinselo zethole, zibengezela njengethusi eliphucuziwe. Zazinezandla zomuntu phansi kwamaphiko azo ezinhlangothini zazo zozine. zozine zazinobuso namaphiko, namaphiko azo ehlangene elinye. Aziphendukanga ekuhambeni kwazo; ngamunye waqonda phambili. ”…
“Isimo sobuso bazo sasingobomuntu, futhi zozine zazinobuso bengonyama ngakwesokunene, nobuso benkomo ngakwesobunxele, kanye nobuso bokhozi. babunjalo ubuso babo. amaphiko azo ayebheke phezulu; yileso naleso sasinamaphiko amabili athinta amaphiko esilwane ngapha nangapha, namabili embese umzimba waso.”
“Isidalwa ngasinye saqonda phambili. Nomaphi lapho umoya wawuthanda ukuya khona, zazihamba zingaphenduki ekuhambeni kwazo. phakathi kwezidalwa kwakukhona ukubonakala kwamalahle omlilo avuthayo nezimbaqa. Umlilo wahambahamba phakathi kwezidalwa; lalikhanya, kwaphazima umbani kulo. Izidalwa zazigijima ziye emuva naphambili njengokuphazima kombani…”
Ngaphezu kwalokho, naphezu kwemizamo kaHezekeli engcono kakhulu yokuchaza lokho akubona kwehla ezulwini, ukulandisa okuningi okuboniswe emidwebeni yobuciko yeBhayibheli kushiya izici ezibalulekile zeNqola KaHezekeli Ezindizayo; umlilo, nombani, namasondo avela ezindaweni zonke.
Ngaphezu kwalokho, igajethi endizayo eyinqaba, enamandla ichazwa ngokuningiliziwe eNcwadini kaHezekeli: “Lapho ngibheka izidalwa, bheka, bheka, isondo phansi eceleni kwezidalwa ezinobuso obune. Ukwenziwa kwamasondo kwakunjengokubengezela kwekrisolithe, futhi omane ayenokufana okufanayo. Ukwenziwa kwawo kwakufana nesondo phakathi kwesondo.”
“Njengoba zihamba, zahamba noma yiziphi izinhlangothi ezine, zingajikijeli lapho zihamba. Amarimu awo ayephakeme futhi esabekayo, futhi amafelange omane ayegcwele amehlo nxazonke. Kwathi ekuhambeni kwezidalwa, amasondo ahamba eceleni kwazo; nalapho izidalwa zisukuma emhlabathini, namasondo aphakama. Nomaphi lapho umoya wawuya khona, ayeya khona, namasondo ayephakama eceleni kwazo, ngoba umoya wezidalwa eziphilayo wawusemasondo.”
“Ekuhambeni kwezidalwa, amasondo ahamba; lapho izidalwa zima, amasondo ema; lapho izidalwa ziphakama emhlabathini, amasondo aphakama eceleni kwazo, ngoba umoya wezidalwa eziphilayo wawusemasondo. Phezu kwamakhanda ezidalwa eziphilayo kwakukhona umumo womkhathi owesabekayo, ucwebezela njengekristalu.”
Njengoba ungase ubone, uHezekeli uveza okuthile okumangalisayo kwehla ezulwini futhi kubangele uMhlaba unyakaze encwadini yakhe. Kwakungafani nanoma yini ake wayibona ngaphambili. Yayinamandla futhi icwebezela. Yazala izinhlangano ezifuze abantu kodwa ezingafani.
Ngawo-1970, usosayensi weNASA ogama lakhe linguJoseph Blumrich wathi ufuna ukuphikisa inkolelo-mbono yokuthi u-Ezekiel wabona umkhumbi-mkhathi uwa ezulwini. UBlumrich wayengunjiniyela wamarokhethi kanye nososayensi we-NASA osezingeni eliphezulu owayesebenza kuphrojekthi yenyanga. Kusukela lapho, wanquma ukufunda lokho uHezekeli ayekulotshwe engxenyeni yokuqala yeNcwadi kaHezekeli.
Naphezu kokungabaza kwakhe, uBlumirch wagcina enqume ukuthi lokho uHezekeli akuchaza endabeni yakhe yofakazi bokuzibonela kwakuwuhlobo oluthile lomkhumbi-mkhathi ngemva kwezinyanga zophenyo olunzima nokufunda. UBlumrich wagqugquzelwa ukuthi enze incwadi ebizwa ngokuthi I-Spaceships of Ezekiel ngenxa yalokhu kutholakala.
Ngakho, yini uHezekeli ayiqaphela, uma kukhona? Ingabe wayeyibona inqola endizayo nama-engeli afana nabantu? Ingabe kunengqondo, njengoba abanye bephikisa, ukuthi uHezekeli, njengabanye abaningi ngaphambi nangemva kwakhe, wabona ubufakazi obuphathekayo bezidalwa ezingaziwa?
