Mwiulu. “Mwiulu” mo babena kwambapo ke mulwelele, monka mupuupa mwela, mutumbuka bañonyi, muji makumbi alengela mvula ne mabebe, ne kubesha kwa mvula. (Salamo 78:26; Byambo bya Maana 30:19; Isaya 55:10; Luka 17:24) Kabiji mwakonsha ne kulumbulula kunsa ya lwelele muji “juba, ñondo ne tubangabanga.”—Mpitulukilo ya mu Mizhilo 4:19; Ntendekelo 1:1.
Mwikala bilengwa bya mupashi. Kyambo kya kuba’mba “mwiulu” kilumbulula ne meulu mwikala bilengwa bya mupashi, mwiulu mwine kupitayila lwelele. (1 Bamfumu 8:27; Yoano 6:38) Bekala mu ano meulu ke Yehoba Lesa kabiji “Mupashi,” ne bamalaika bo alengele. (Yoano 4:24; Mateo 24:36) Kimo kimye mwiulu mutelwa nobe muntu kulumbulula ba malaika bakishinka, ‘kipwilo kya bazhijikwa.’—Salamo 89:5-7
Kabiji Baibolo wamba pa “mwiulu” kutazha ku kifulo kikalako bilengwa bya mupashi konka kwikala Yehoba, ‘monka mwiulu mo ekala.’ (1 Bamfumu 8:43, 49; Bahebelu 9:24; Lumwekesho 13:6) Kya kumwenako, Baibolo waambijile jimo amba Satana ne bandemona bakebataya kufuma mwiulu, kwakubula kwibaswisha kutwela mwikala Yehoba. Bino batwajijile kwikala bilengwa bya mupashi.—Lumwekesho 12:7-9, 12.

(Ezikyo 1:26-28; Danyela 7:9, 10) Mwiulu mwazhila, nangwa’mba kafwamo bubi, kabiji mwawama.—Salamo 96:6; Isaya 63:15; Lumwekesho 4:2, 3.
Bintu bya mwiulu byonse byaambapo Baibolo ke bya kukumya bingi. (Ezikyo 43:2, 3) Nangwa byonkabyo, bantu kechi bakonsha kumvwisha biji mwiulu ne, mambo bilengwa bya mupashi kechi twibimona ne.
