Yini i-Aeon?

Lapho sicubungula iSilulumagama sikaJesu, saphawula ukuthi imifanekiso ku Matthew 13:24-50 okuhlobene 'nokuphela kwenkathi/umhlaba' kungase kuhunyushwe ngokuthi 'ukuphela kwe-aeon.’ Igama lethu lesiNgisi, ‘ayen,’ ekuqaleni kwakuyinguqulo yesiGreki ‘aion‘ (G165) ngesiLatini; futhi uhlala esondelene kakhulu nayo ngencazelo. Kodwa aion’ ngokwalo inguqulo yegama lesiHeberu, ‘olam‘(H5769); futhi, nakuba imiqondo ifana kakhulu kufanele siqaphele ukufunda ukucashile kwencazelo emuva egameni lesiHeberu lokuqala, ngoba konke 3 Izilimi ziye zashintsha izincazelo phakathi neminyaka.

• Incazelo yokuqala ye ‘olam‘ ‘yayiyinkathi ekude ngokungaziwa esikhathini esidlule noma esizayo’ noma ‘engunaphakade.’¹ Lona umqondo elisetshenziswe ngawo kulo lonke iTestamente Elidala; (ngaphandle okungenzeka ngaphandle kwemibhalo embalwa kakhulu ku-O.T yokugcina. izincwadi ezizobhalwa). Kodwa kamuva ezingxoxweni zoRabi kanye nezinkonzo, kusukela phakathi noma ekupheleni kwesikhathi seThempeli Lesibili (c.300BC noma kamuva), yaqala ukusetshenziswa ngomqondo ‘wenkathi’ noma ‘umhlaba’ (njenge 'Olam Ha-Ba-Ba-Ba-ba' (‘Umhlaba Ozayo’) kanye 'Adon Olam' (‘Umphathi Womhlaba’)).²

• IsiNgisi 'aeon' (I-US/Canadian ‘eon’) ihlale igxile encazelweni yokuthi ‘isikhathi eside kakhulu (nakuba ekugcineni kunomkhawulo) isikhathi;' ngezincazelo ezithile eziqondile emkhakheni we-geology ne-astronomy.

• IsiGreki ‘aion’ ekuqaleni lalisho ‘ukuphila,’ ngomqondo ‘wobungqabavu’ noma ‘amandla okuphila;’ kodwa kuHomer (c.700BC) phambili, incazelo yawo inwetshiwe ukuze ifake imibono 'yempilo yonke' kanye 'nendlela yokuphila', ‘isizukulwane’ kanye ‘nobudala;’ nakuba lalivame ukuhunyushwa ngokuthi ‘iminyaka’ ngomqondo ‘weminyaka’, 'phakade', 'ayinasikhathi' noma 'ingunaphakade'; noma njengokuthi ‘umhlaba’ ngomqondo ‘wonke lokho esikubonayo esikhathini esidlule’ (njengesikhathi somlando wesintu). UPlato (c.350BC) sebenzisa ‘aion’ ukusho ‘izwe laphakade lemibono,' kanye no-Aristotle (c.330BC) njengempilo ‘engafiyo neyaphezulu’ yaseZulwini. Ngakho-ke leli gama laqala ukuthola imibono emisha yefilosofi nemfundiso yenkolo; nakuba kungenjalo emhlabeni jikelele.

Umbuzo osikhathazayo lapha ngowokuthi lezi zinguquko ze-semantic kufanele zikuthinte kanjani ukuqonda kwethu imibhalo yeTestamente Elisha..

Uma sibheka ukusetshenziswa 'aion‘eTestamenteni Elisha, sithola kuyenzeka 128 Izikhathi. Phakathi kwa- 60 kulawa isetshenziswa ekuvezeni kwefomu, ‘enyangeni(s),' noma ngezinye izikhathi, ‘eminyakeni edluleyo.’ Incazelo yokukhuluma yale nkulumo ibonakala ithi ‘phakade.,’ noma ‘isikhathi eside somhlaba njengoba sisazi ihlala njalo:’ kodwa kuyaphawuleka ukuthi izindlela eziphindaphindwayo ngokuvamile zigcinelwe ‘ubuphakade’ bukaNkulunkulu ngokwakhe.. (Isib. Phakathi kwa- Mt. 6:13, UJesu uphetha umthandazo weNkosi nge, ‘...ngowakho umbuso namandla nenkazimulo kuze kube phakade;’ kuyilapho uPawulu ephetha ngokubusisa uNkulunkulu ‘eminyakeni eyizinkulungwane zeminyaka.) Phakathi kwa- 6 kokungenhla 60 izimo le nkulumo ibhangqwe nenkulumo ephikisayo egcizelelayo ukuze inikeze incazelo yokuthi ‘ungalokothi.’ Kwezisele 68 amacala, ukuhlola kafushane umongo kubonisa ukuthi ukuhunyushwa ‘kwezwe’ noma ‘iminyaka’ kwenza umehluko omncane encazelweni iyonke.

Kodwa obunye ubufakazi obubalulekile bencazelo ehlosiwe yokuthi ‘aion’ ingase futhi ithathwe enguqulweni yesiGreki ye-Septuagint yeTestamente Elidala. I-Torah (inguqulo edumile ye 5 izincwadi zikaMose i-Septuagint eqanjwe kuzo igama layo) yahunyushwa cishe ngo-250BC, futhi ingxenye esele yeTestamente Elidala ngonyaka we-132BC. Lezi zinguqulo ‘zaziyimiBhalo’ eyisisekelo eyasetshenziswa uJesu, iningi lamaJuda akhuluma isiGreki namalungu ebandla lokuqala. Lo msebenzi wawusuwenziwe abantu ababengochwepheshe ekuqondeni kwabo kokubili umbhalo wokuqala wesiHeberu namagama esiGreki sangesikhathi sabo.; ngaleyo ndlela kunikeza ithuba elikahle lokuhlolisisa incazelo 'aion’ njengoba lisetshenziswe ngokoqobo emBhalweni.

Empeleni, 'olam' kubonakala 438 izikhathi phakathi 413 amavesi e-OT yesiHeberu futhi ihunyushwa ngokuthi ‘aion' (noma isichasiso sayo, 'aionios') 543 izikhathi phakathi 351 amavesi e-Septuagint. Sesikuqaphelile ukuthi incazelo yokuthi ‘olam‘ngesiHebheru OT ngu, cishe ngaphandle kokukhetha, ‘inkathi ekude kakhulu esikhathini esidlule noma esizayo’ noma ‘ephakadeni.’ Kukho konke kodwa 12 amavesi 'olam' ihunyushwa ngokuqondile ngokuthi 'aion'noma'aionios.' Kokusele, 7 zihunyushwa ngomqondo othi ‘ngokuqhubekayo/phakade/kusukela ekuqaleni’ futhi 5 ukufundwa okuhlukile kwencazelo engaqinisekile. Amanye amavesi aqukethe amagama esiHebheru noma izinkulumo ezihunyushwa ngokuthi ‘aion'noma'aionios‘ futhi kubonakala kunezincazelo ezifanayo.³

Mayelana nani 'aionios?'

Ngenkathi sisesihlokweni seTestamente Elidala, futhi kuyakhanya kakhulu ukubhekisisa isichasiso ‘aionios' (G166) enguqulweni ye-Septuagint yesiGreki. Uma sibheka ngokuqondile 'aionios,' sithola kuvela 119 izikhathi phakathi 113 amavesi; futhi zonke kodwa 9 kulokhu ukuhunyushwa kwe-olam.'Kulokhu okusele, 4 izinguqulo ze-alam' (ukulingana kwamaKaledi ‘olam') kuyilapho abasele 5 ukufundwa okuhlukile (eyodwa yayo enganqunywa ngokuqiniseka ukuthi isho ‘okuphakade’ noma ‘okungafi’).⁴

Siphawulile ngaphambili lokho, -phi Mark 9:43-46 ikhuluma ngomlilo ‘ongacimi,’ futhi ‘ayinakucinywa,' Matthew 18:8 sebenzisa ‘aionios'; ngokuvamile elihunyushwa ngokuthi ‘ingunaphakade,’ ‘phakade’ noma ‘phakade.’ Kodwa abanye baphikisa ngokuqinile ukuthi lokhu kufanele esikhundleni salokho kuhunyushwe ngokuthi ‘aeonian,’ ngomqondo ‘wokuphathelene’ ne-aeon ethile, kunokuba ube nezinto zesikhathi eside noma zaphakade ‘olam.’ Isizathu sokuthi kungani lokhu kubalulekile ukuthi, uma kungaboniswa ukuthi umcabango oyinhloko ngemuva kokusetshenziswa kwesiphawulo ‘aionios‘kunjalo -I ukuthi ubude bayo, bese kuba nokwenzeka ukuphikisa ngokuthi inhlawulo ‘ye-aeonian’ ingase ibe isikhathi esifushane uma kuqhathaniswa esizonqanyulwa., noma ngisho nokuhlehliswa.

Manje kuyiqiniso ukuthi abanye, kodwa akunjalo konke, ababhali bezwe abangamaGreki base beqale ukusebenzisa ‘aeonian' ngalo mqondo okhethekile - njengoba kwenza ezinye izazi zenkolo zamaKrestu - kusukela cishe ngekhulu lesi-3 AD kuye phambili.. Kodwa ukuhlola okungenhla kweSeptuagint kubonisa ngokusobala ukuthi incazelo ehlosiwe yakho kokubili ‘aion'futhi'aionios‘ kwakuwumqondo weTestamente Elidala wokuthi ‘olam' - 'inkathi ekude kakhulu esikhathini esidlule noma esizayo' noma 'ingunaphakade.'

Njengoba ababhali beTestamente Elisha babesebenzisa iTestamente lesiHeberu nelesiGriki njengemibhalo yabo, singalindela ukuthi basebenzise izincazelo ezifanayo. Kodwa ukuze sihlole ngokuqhubekayo kufanele sibheke eTestamenteni Elisha ngokwalo; kuphi'aionios' kubonakala 71 Izikhathi. Phakathi kwa- 45 zalezi (cishe izingxenye ezimbili kwezintathu!) lisetshenziswa enkulumweni, ‘ukuphila okuphakade.’ Yilokhu le khasi Inkulumo evamile esetshenziselwa ukuchaza ukuphila okungapheli kwalabo abalandela uJesu! Ngakho kungaba nzima ukucabanga nganoma iyiphi inkulumo engafanelekile kakhulu ukudlulisa umqondo wento obekungalindelekile ukuba ihlale phakade.! Ngaphezu kwalokho, ezintathu zalezi zikhombo zenza isixhumanisi esikhanyayo neTestamente Elidala. Mt 19:6, Mk 10:17 & Lk 10:30 bonke bacaphuna umbuzo wombusi osemusha ocebile, “Ngizakwenzani ukuze ngidle ifa lokuphila okuphakade?” Kodwa isukaphi le nkulumo? Ukusetshenziswa kwayo kokuqala kweBhayibheli kuse Dan 12:2; lapho i-Septuagint ilihumusha khona ncamashí njengaseTestamenteni Elisha lapho ihumusha isiHebheru, 'olam chay.'

Kwabasele 26 amacala, omunye 18 futhi ngokungangabazeki yenza umqondo ongcono kakhulu lapho uqondwa njengesho ‘okuphakade’ noma ‘phakade.’ Lezi zihlanganisa le nkulumo., 'pro chronon aionion;' (‘ngaphambi kokuba umhlaba uqale’ - ngokwezwi nezwi, 'ngaphambi kwesikhathi se-aeonian'), e Rom 16:25, 2Tim 1:9 & Tit 1:2, kanye 'pneumatos aioniou' (‘uMoya waphakade’) e Heb 9:14.

Isithenjwa esisodwa (Philemon 1:15-16) ingase ihunyushwe nganoma iyiphi indlela: ‘Ngokuba mhlawumbe wahlukaniswa nani isikhashana, ukuthi uzakuba laye kuze kube nininini, angabe esaba njengesigqila, kodwa ngaphezu kwesigqila, umzalwane othandekayo.’ Kungenzeka ukuthi uPawulu wayecabanga kuphela ngokubuyisela lesi sigqila njengomzalwane kulokhu kuphila: kepha, uma kubhekwa umongo, kungenzeka kakhulu ukuthi ucabanga ngokuphila okuphakade abahlanganyela nakho manje.

Lokhu kuhamba nje 7 ezinye izinkulumo lapho leli gama lisetshenziswe khona: 'umlilo' waphakade (3 Izikhathi), ‘isijeziso,' 'intukuthelo,’ ‘ukubhujiswa,’ kanye ‘nokwahlulela.’

Sakhomba ngaphambili lokho Mat 18:6-9 inguqulo efushanisiwe ye Mark 9:43-48. Kodwa lokho uMathewu akubiza ngokuthi ‘okuphakade (G166) umlilo', Mark 9:42-48 ichaza njengomlilo ‘ongenakucimeka (G762)’ futhi ‘ayicishiwe (G4570).’ Ngakho kusobala ukuthi bobabili ababhali bayavuma ukuthi uJesu wayechaza okungacimekiyo, izici zaphakade zalomlilo.

Ekugcineni, bheka umfanekiso kaJesu wezimvu nezimbuzi; ngokuqaphela ikakhulukazi amavesi 41 futhi 46:

Khona-ke uyothi kulabo abangakwesokhohlo sakhe, ‘Suka kimi, nina eniqalekisiweyo, kwaphakade (G166) umlilo (G4442) elilungiselwe uSathane nezingelosi zakhe. … Laba bayakumuka kuze kube phakade (G166) isijeziso (G2851)*, kodwa abalungileyo kuze kube phakade (G166) impilo (G2222). (Mat 25:41,46)

Lapha sinenkulumo ethi ‘isijeziso saphakade.’ Ngisho nasemongweni wev.46 kuphela, isimangalo sokuthi lokhu kuchaza isijeziso sesikhashana kuyilapho igama elifanayo lisetshenziswa emshweni ofanayo ukuchaza umvuzo waphakade wolungileyo., kubonakala sengathi kuyangabazeka. Kodwa sasiyini isijeziso ababenikezwe sona? Umlilo waphakade (v. 41). Kunzima ngokwanele ukusho ukuthi ‘isijeziso saphakade’ siyisimo sesikhashana lapho sicatshangelwa endabeni eseduze ye-v.46: kodwa lapho sicabangela iqiniso lokuthi le nkulumo efanayo, ‘umlilo waphakade’ usetshenziswa umbhali ofanayo ku Mt 18:6-9, lapho sifana nomlilo ‘ongenakucimeka’ futhi ‘ongacimi’ phakathi Mk 9:42-48, le mpikiswano iba nzima kakhulu ukuyisekela.

Ngakho abasekeli bombono wokuthi ‘isijeziso saphakade’ singokwesikhathi esilinganiselwe ngempela banenkinga yolimi esobala. Ekufuneni ukumelana nalokhu ngokuvamile basebenzisa 2 izingxabano. Ngakolunye uhlangothi, basikisela ukuthi igama elilungile lesiGreki elisho ‘okuphakade’ alisho ‘aionios': kodwa'aidios.' Ngokolunye uhlangothi, bazama ukusho ukuthi 'kolasis' (G2851) e Mat 25:46 Empeleni kusho ukulungisa isijeziso; futhi, uma kunjalo, kufanele kube ngokwesikhashana.

Kujwayelekile kakhulu ukubona abasekeli bombono wokuthi ‘aionios‘akusho umzamo ‘waphakade’ wokuqinisekisa ukusho kwabo ngokuphikisana ngokuthi igama elilungile lesiGreki elisho ‘okuphakade’ liyoba ‘aidios' (G126). Kodwa empeleni la magama womabili acishe afane futhi avame ukushintshaniswa, kuye ngokuthandwa kombhali othile. Leli gama 'aidios' ibuye isetshenziswe ku-NT - nakuba kabili kuphela. Phakathi kwa- Rom 1:20, inguqulo ‘yaphakade’ yenza umqondo osobala. Kodwa ku Jude 1:6 kubhekiselwa emaketangeni okuthi, nakuba ngokusobala ihloselwe ukungabhubhi, zihloselwe kuphela ukusetshenziswa isikhathi esithile (kuze kufike usuku lokwahlulela). Ukusetshenziswa okunjalo kungqubuzana ngokuqondile nesimangalo sokuthi ‘aidios,' kunoku 'aionios,' igama elilungile elisho 'okuphakade'.

Ingabe 'kolasis‘Ukulungisa?

Kubuye kuthiwe ‘kolasis' (G2851) livela esenzweni ‘koladzo' (G2849), okusho ukuthi 'ukunciphisa'; futhi ekuqaleni lalibhekisela ekuthenweni kwezihlahla. Kuvame ukuvezwa ukuthi, ekhulwini lesi-4 BC, U-Aristotle wenza umehluko phakathi 'kolasis’ njengesijeziso ‘esinikezwa ngenxa yesithakazelo sogulayo:' futhi'timoria,’ okungukuthi ‘ngokwesithakazelo salowo owenzayo, ukuze azuze ukwaneliseka.’ Kodwa ingabe ukhona umehluko onjalo esiGrekini sesiKoine senkathi yeTestamente Elisha??

Okokuqala nje, sisanda kubona ukuthi ‘isijeziso saphakade’ izimbuzi zithunyelwa kuso Mt 25:46 akayena omunye ngaphandle ‘komlilo waphakade’ we Mt 25:41. Lokhu kusho kakhulu umphumela ongalungisi. Ukuze sinqobe lokhu okushiwo sizodinga ubufakazi obunamandla bokuthi ‘kolasis‘kwakujwayele ukuqondwa njengokusho isijeziso sokulungisa. Kodwa enye indawo lapho 'kolasis' ivela ku-NT iphakathi 1Jn 4:18; futhi lokho kukwazi ukuhunyushwa nganoma iyiphi indlela. Nokho, kukhona futhi izibonelo ezimbili zesenzo, 'koladzo.' Okokuqala, Acts 4:21, nayo ayicacisi. Kodwa okwesibili, 2Pe 2:9, ayiyona; ngoba uma siqhubeka sifunda sithola ukuthi ekugcineni kubhekwe umphumela, e 2Pe 2:12, ukuthi abanye ‘babeyobhujiswa ngokuphelele.’

Kodwa'kolasis' iyatholakala futhi 7 izikhathi kuSeptuagint. 5 izikhathi kuHezekeli lihumusha isiHebheru ‘hlanganisa imbobo' (I-H4383 'isikhubekiso-isikhubekiso' noma 'incithakalo'). 3 zalezi, e Eze 14:3-8, kube nomphumela wokuthi umenzi wobubi ‘anqunywe’ phakathi kwabantu bakubo; e Eze 18:30-31 umphumela uwukufa. Kuphela ngaphakathi Eze 44:12 wenza ‘mikshole‘ faka ukubuyisela ingxenye; nakuba ngokulahlekelwa kwesimo unomphela. Kokunye 2 izehlakalo, inguqulo ye-Septuagint ye Eze 43:10-11 uyafunda, ‘bazothatha isijeziso sabo’, usebenzisa ('kolasis') ngomqondo wokubuyisela: kodwa lokhu akukona ukuhunyushwa kokuthi 'mikshole'. IsiHebheru sokuqala asisho nhlobo isijeziso; esikhundleni salokho ethi, ‘uma benamahloni ngakho konke abakwenzile.’ Ekugcineni, Jer 18:20 iqukethe ibinzana elisetshenziswa 'kolasis:’ kodwa njengoba lomusho ungekho ngokuphelele embhalweni wesiHeberu, akukho okungatholakala ngokuphepha mayelana nencazelo yalo.

Labo abafisa ukuthuthukisa umbono othile phezu komunye bayothatha ngokwemvelo izibonelo ezifanelana kangcono necala labo: kepha, njengoba kubonakala, ukusetshenziswa kwemibhalo kuncike kumongo. Ngokunjalo, ezincwadini zezwe zesiGreki zalesi sikhathi kukhona futhi izibonelo eziningi ezingabuyiseli 'kolasis.'⁵

Ngenxa yalokho, kuyadukisa ukuphoqelela incazelo yomuntu siqu ethi 'kolasis’ ukuze kuqedwe incazelo yeBhayibheli ebhalwe kangcono kakhulu ethi ‘aionios.'

Lokhu kusishiya sinakho 2 izizathu eziyinhloko zokubuza incazelo yegama elithi ‘phakade’aionios‘ lapho sicabangela izincazelo zikaJesu zesahlulelo sikaNkulunkulu:

1. Asiyithandi imiphumela.

Imibhalo yaphansi

1. Kuye kwaphakanyiswa ukuthi ‘olam‘ kungenzeka ukuthi ekuqaleni lithathwe olimini lwesiHebheru, ‘alam‘ (H5956), okusho ‘umgubuzelo ovela emehlweni.’ Bheka ukuhumusha kwesiHeberu neSeptuagint kokuthi Ps 90:8, Ngokwesibonelo.

Amagama azungezile afakiwe lapho kunesidingo: kodwa hhayi ngaphakathi kwezingcaphuno.

Ukuze uthole izibonelo ezinemininingwane, bheka uhlelo lwesithathu noma lwakamuva lwe-‘A Greek-English Lexicon of the New Testament and Other Early Christian Literature’ (ngokuvamile eyaziwa ngokuthi 'BDAG’ noma 'BADG', Inombolo ye-ISBN. 0226039331 noma 978-0226039336). Lokhu ngokuvamile kuqashelwa njengesichazamazwi esiphelele nesakamuva solimi lwesiGreki lwalesi sikhathi.. Ngeshwa, kubiza kakhulu futhi akutholakali kalula ku-inthanethi; ngakho-ke zama umtapo wezincwadi zenkolo. Omunye umthombo owusizo Lesi sihloko kusuka ku-Reddit, ngaphansi kwesihloko, ‘Ezwini elithi Kolasis Nezihlobo Zalo.’ Kodwa qaphela ukuthi umbhali wayo ubhala ngolimi oluqinile, okwezwe, umbono; ngakho-ke akahloselwe ukufuna ukuqonda okunesikhathi esilinganiselwe ngoJesu’ amazwi.
