1. Munna Russell niikhurupwaawe yaasoma manannani, ni kontha isiyani usoma ayo manannaayo wahaakavihera?
MYAAKHA coopwaha 100 uttuli, munna Charles Russell ni ikhurupu yankaani yaanamasoma Nuulumo na Nluku yaaweettanaawe yahancera uthukumana. Ayo yaapheela wiitthuca itthu Ibiiblya inhimyaaya nhina Yehova Nluku, Yesu Kristu, itthu inwiirannyeela atthu ookhwa ni woopoliya wihu. Mananna ayo caasomaaya yaari oohirika.

Ayo mananna oosomaayo yahaakavihera venci, kontha Yehova ahaavaha iparakha ni ayo yahokhitiri woonelela mbiiblyani ikhweeli cofayita cinlemeliheehu ilelo.
2. Kontha isiyani ukati nkiina khanineeweeha ratta inatiri co mbiiblyani?
2 Ale anamasoma Ibiiblyaale woohipica yahoonelela itthu: wiiweeha mwaha uneetthucihiya mbiiblyani khunrika, masi wiiweeha inatiri yo mbiiblyani ikhanle itthu yoorika. Kontha isiyani? Woopacera, kontha imaara cinci hiiva nineeweehaka inatiri yo mbiiblyani wakhalaka wiira iri mowiirannya awula iheerannya. Masi ihaavo-tho itthu ikhwaawe inthoonyera nlattuni unrikaaya wiiweeha inatiri co mbiiblyani. Wiira niiweehe ratta inatiri inttonkaciya mbiiblyani, imaara cinci nihaana nuupuwelaka inatiri yotheene, kahi mphantte mmoca paahi. Naweheehaka iyo inatiriiyo mphantte mmoca paahi, khaninhala wiiweeha ratta. Ni unkhala toko iyo phi itthu iniirihale uhiiweeha ratta inatiri inttonkiya nlivuruni ya Joweli. Nttwee nuupuwele itthu inhimyaaya iyo inatiriiyo ni noone nlattuni ninlamuliyeehu urukunusa mananna cineeweeheehu.
3-4. Ukhuma nenne nokhalayi mpaka nna va, naataphulela cani inatiri ya Joweli 2:7-9?
3 Usome Joweli 2:7-9. * Joweli naattonka inatiri inhimya wiira cinaahala uwa icoroope cinhala uhasara ilapo yo Isarayeli. Uyo hohimya wiira nnyo cikhanle icoroope cotala, cookhalana miino ni malaku toko okharamu, ni cinaahala ulya miri cotheene nlaponi yo Isarayeli! (Jow. 1:4, 6) Ukhuma nenne nokhalayi, hiiva naakupali wiira iyo inatiriiyo inwaaca apoovu a Yehova. Hiiva neera wiira apoovu a Yehova khayaahala uhiya ulalyeera khampa icoroope cinci coohikhitiriya weemesiya; ni ihapari caahalaaya ulalya, caanaahala uhonona “ilapo,” awula waahonona atthu anhooleliya naahooleli ottiini. *

Masi nasomaka inatiri ya Joweli yotheene, unawoonannya wiira nihaana nirukunusaka mananna cineeweehu nnyo iveerusunnyo. Nttwee noone citthu cese cinthoonyera wiira nihaana nirukunusaka moopuwelelweehu.
CITTHU CESE CINNIIRIHA URUKUNUSA MOOPUWELELWEEHU OKHALAYI
5-6. Nikohoni ninkhumelela nasomaka a) Joweli 2:20? b) Joweli 2:25?
5 Itthu yoopacera—woone itthu Yehova ikhuluvelihalyaawe upanka aacaka icoroope: “Kinaahala unhapusera uttayi ule nkhuma ncoko wooculu [icoroope] wiira hiwaattameleni.” (Jow. 2:20) Ayo moolumwaayo anaakumihaca nikoho nuulupale: Wakhala wiira icoroope anaaciya Masaahiti a Yehova, anvara nteko urumiyaaya ni Yesu woolalyeera ni wowaapanka eetthuci, vano nlattuni Yehova waahalaawe upanka inatiri eeraka wiira mpheela ‘waahapusera uttayi’? (Ezek. 33:7-9; Mat. 28:19, 20) Khweeliini, unawoonannya wiira Yehova khanaahapusera uttayi atthu ookhuluvelya anonswalela, masi itthu inhapuseraawe uttayi ikhanle itthu awula ntthu mpheela waahasara apoovwaawe.
6 Itthu yonayeeli—woone isiyani Yehova yuulumalyaawe nhina Joweli 2:25: “Mi kinaahala wuulivani myaakha cihononiye niicoroope, niicoroope coohimapupha, niicoroope coolya cinene ni niicoroope coomiryakaca icoolya, anatoropaaka oolupale kuuvelelihenryaakani.” Woone wiira nhina ila iveeruswiila, Yehova hohimya wiira naahala ‘uliva’ citthu cihononiye niicoroope. Iyo inaakumihaca nikoho nikhwaawe: Wakhala wiira icoroope anaaciya anamalalyeera ihapari comaana, nlattuni Yehova waahalaawe ‘uliva’ ihasara ipankalyaaya? Iyo yaahala uthoonyera wiira ihapari cinlalyeereehu cinaawaana ihasara. Masi ihapari cinlalyeereehu khacinwaana ihasara. Uhiya commo, nnyo ihaparinnyo cinawoopola ukumi waatthu ni cinaawiiriha atthu oohinamaana urukunusa mirima caya. (Ezek. 33:8, 19) Iyo ikhanle iparakha inaakhelaaya, kahi ihasara.
7. Nuulumo “wahoolo” niri nhina Joweli 2:28, 29, isiyani ninnikaviheraaya wiiweeha?
7 Usome Joweli 2:28, 29. * Woone itthu yoneeraru—ukati wowiirannya citthu cinttonkiya nhina iyo inatiriiyo. Woone wiira Yehova neera co: “Wahoolo, kinaahala waamwarusela nnepaaka”; “wahoolo” maanaaya wiira icoroope cinamalihale uvara ntekwaaya. Wakhala wiira icoroope anaaciya anamalalyeera ihapari comaana, nlattuni Yehova waahaalaawe waavaha nnepaawe wowaarya wahoolo, anamalihale uvara nteko woolalyeera? Khweeliini, hiiva nihaana nikhalanaka nnepa wowaarya ukati woovara uyo ntekooyo. Waari wiira khanaakaviheriya niikuru co nnepa wowaarya, khanaahala ukhitiri uviriha myaakha cinci nivaraka nteko woolalyeera hataa nilupatthiyaka awula ntekweehu ukhottihiyaka niikuveerunu.
Munna J. F. Rutherford ni makristau oothanliya akhwaawe yaholipa nrima ukati waahoolelaaya ulalyeeriya ihukhumu Nluku inhalaawe uwaanela ila ituninya yoohinamaaneela (Uwehe iparaagarafu 8)
8. Phaapani akhanle icoroope cihimiye nhina inatiri yo Apokalipise 9:1-11? (Uwehe ilatarato iri wakaapani.)
8 Usome Apokalipise 9:1-11. * Vano, nttwee noopele mwaha itthu yoneecese. Khalayi, hiiva neera wiira icoroope cittonkiye nnatirini ya Joweli anaaciya apoovu a Yehova. Hiiva neera commo kontha nlivuruni yo Apokalipise ihaavo inatiri yoolattanaca niinatiri ya Joweli. Inatiri yo Apokalipise inawuuluma icoroope cinci cirina ikhove ya ntthu ni cirina mmuruni waya “citthu cookhala toko ikorowa cowooru.” (Apoka. 9:7) Nnyo icoroopennyo cinaaviriha myeeri mithanu caattarusaka “atthu ahirina ntthitto na Nluku wayuuci [awula awanani a Nluku].” Myeeri mithanu phuukati icoroope unkhalaaya cinari cikumi. (Apoka. 9:4, 5) Unkhala toko iyo inatiriiyo inwaaca makristau oothanliya. Yalipaka nrima, ayo anaalalya ihukhumu Nluku inhalaawe uwaana wiira amalamalihe ila ituninya yoohinamaaneela; ni itthu inlalyeeraaya inawaawereha nrima cinene atthu o ntuninyani.
9. Icoroope cihimiye nnatirini ya Joweli cinvirikana cani niicoroope cinoolumiya nhina inatiri yo Apokalipise?
9 Khweeliini, cihaavo citthu cihimiye nhina inatiri ya Joweli cinlattanaca niinatiri yo Apokalipise. Masi ciicammo cihaavo citthu cuulupale cinvirikana. Wootakihera, nhina inatiri ya Joweli, icoroope cinaahonona malasi. (Jow. 1:4, 6, 7) Masi nhina inatiri yo Apokalipise, icoroope cinaarumiya wiira “cihihonone malasi o watuninyani.” (Apoka. 9:4) Icoroope Joweli coonalyaawe caaweela mphantte wo uculu wolapo. (Jow. 2:20) Masi icoroope coonalyaawe Joau caaweela munliwini. (Apoka. 9:2, 3) Nhina inatiri ya Joweli, Yehova naahapusera uttayi icoroope. Masi nhina Apokalipise, Nluku naahiya wiira icoroope cimalihe nteko unvaraaya. Khiivo itthu inthoonyera wiira Yehova cinanrusa icoroope cihimiye nnatirini yo Apokalipise.—Uwehe ikwaaturu “ Inatiri cocoroope—Coolattanaca, masi khacinlikana.”
10. Uhimye ntakihero no mbiiblyani ninthoonyera wiira icoroope conatiri ya Joweli ni icoroope conatiri yo Apokalipise cintaphulela citthu coovirikana.
10 Ukhala wiira cihaavo citthu cuulupale cihimiye nhina inatiri ya Joweli cinvirikana niinatiri yo Apokalipise, pooti wankupaliihu wiira nnyo inatirinnyo khacinlikana. Niireke iyo maanaaya wiira icoroope conatiri ya Joweli ni icoroope conatiri yo Apokalipise khacinakhala cimocaaru? Iyee. Ikwaha cikiina, Ibiiblya inawuuluma itthu imocaaru mapuro meeli, masi iyo pooti utaphulela citthu coovirikana wakhalaka wiira myaha cinoolumiya mapuro oomeeli khacinlikana. Wootakihera, Apokalipise 5:5 immwiihana Yesu “Kharamu onloko na Yuuta.” Masi 1 Peturu 5:8 immwiihana Sotwani “kharamu neepa nrunkulu.” Citthu cotheene coopenleehu mwaha mpaka va, cinthoonyera wiira nihaana nitaphulelaka inatiri ya Joweli ni mananna makhwaawe. Manannani?
IYO INATIRIIYO INTAPHULELA ISIYANI?
11. Manannani Joweli 1:6 ni 2:1, 8, 11 cinnikaviheraaya ucuwela phaapani akhanle icoroope?
11 Naweheehaka inatiri ya Joweli yotheene, ninawoona wiira iyo inatiriiyo inaaca ikhotto. (Jow. 1:6; 2:1, 8, 11) Khweeliini, Yehova aapheela uhimya wiira aanaahala waavarela nteko ‘anatoropaawe oolupale’ (anatoropa o Babilooniya) wiira aattaruse asarayeli yahaamwiiwelela. (Jow. 2:25) Ayo anatoropaayo yahaana isariya yowiihaniya “ule nkhuma ncoko wooculu,” kontha ukati waarwaaya waana ikhotto naasarayeli, yaakelenle mphantte wo uculu wolapo yo Isarayeli. (Jow. 2:20) Ale anatoropaale yaalattanaca niicoroope cinci coothotokanihiya. Awaacaka ayo anatoropaayo, Joweli heera: “Khula [natoropa] notthara nttalaawe. . . . Anaakela nsittatti, anaatthawa waculu muuru. Anaawela mmanupani, anaaphova mmacanelani khampa malatarawu.” (Jow. 2:8, 9) Wuupuwele itthu yaakhumelela. Khula nipuro yahaavo anatoropa. Khanaarivo nipuro nowiipitha. Khaavo ntthu aakhitiri waatthawa anatoropa o Babilooniya!
12. Inatiri ya Joweli inooluma icoroope yiirannyaale cani?
12 Mwaakha wo 607 hinaatthi uwa Kristu watuninyani, ababilooniya (awula makaldeu) yahokela nsittatti yo Yerusalemu khampa icoroope. Ibiiblya ineera: “Mwene o makaldeu, wiivakacale amirawaaya niikatana . . . , uyo khawoonenle uthunku amirawo, asithiyana, mapwaapwaawe ni mapwiyawe, ni hataa aretta. Nluku honvaha mmatatani wawe citthu cotheene. Hopaha inupa ya Nluku eekhweeli, homarula muuru wo Yerusalemu, hopaha ni mooro inupa caya coolipihaciya cotheene ni hokwanyulaca citthu cotheene caarina ifayita.” (2 Ikor. 36:17, 19) Ababilooniya yahokwanyulaca isittatti yotheene. Atthu yoona isittatti yo Yerusalemu yeera: “Ila ilapweela khinkhaliya, khaavo atthu, khacivo inama, ni ahovahiya makaldeu.”—Jer. 32:43.
13. Utaphulele itthu inhimyaaya Jeremiya 16:16, 18.
13 Uvira waya myaakha 200 Joweli nahimyale inatiryaawe, Yehova ahonruma Jeremiya urwaa uhimya itthu, awaacaka anatoropa o Babilooniya. Uyo heera wiira anatoropa o Babilooniya yaanaahala waatotha sana-saana asarayeli yaapanka citthu coohinamaana ni yaanaahala waavara otheene. “‘Kinaahala waalattula anakhavoko,’ neera Yehova, ‘ni ayo anaahala waamenca. Wahoolo, kinaahala waalattula mayoolupattha, ni ayo anaahala waalupattha mmamyaakoni motheene, mmattuttuni cotheene ni mmakhukuni. . . . Mi kinaahala waahokolosera makoosyaaya ni matampyaaya.’” Asarayeli pooti waatthawelaya mpahari awula ntakhwani, ayo khayaahala ukhitiri waatthawa anatoropa o Babilooniya.—Jer. 16:16, 18.
UREHERERIYA CITTHU
14. Inatiri iri nhina Joweli 2:28, 29 yiirannyaale ukatini?
14 Joweli ciicammo naahimya ihapari comaana. Uyo naahimya wiira citthu cinaahala urehereriya ni ilapo inaahala uturuwela uruwerya icoolya. (Jow. 2:23-26) Nuukatyaaya, Yehova aanaahala waavaha apoovwaawe iyoolya yoominepani yinci. Yehova hokhuluveliha: “Kinaahala waamwarusela nnepaaka atthu okhapila cotheene, asaaneenyu asilopwana ni asithiyana anaahala wuuluma khampa maporofeeta. . . . Ni mpaka ipottha caka cilopwana ni cithiyana kinaahala ciicammo umwarusela nnepaaka.” (Jow. 2:28, 29) Yehova heera wiira aanaahala waamwarusela nnepaawe wowaarya. Iyo khayeerannyaale ukati asarayeli waaturuwalyaaya u Babilooniya, masi yeerannyaale wahoolo, cinavinre myaakha cinci, nihuku no Pentekositi o mwaakha wo 33. Nincuwela cani iyo?
15. Nhina Miteko 2:16, 17, Peturu rukunusale cani moolumo onatiri ya Joweli 2:28, ni iyo inthoonyera isiyani?
15 Nihuku no Pentekositi o mwaakha wo 33, unari 9 hora oowicisu, yahokhumelela itthu yootikhiniha. Ikhurupu yaatthari a Kristu yahomwaruseliya nnepa wowaarya, ni ayo yahancera wuuluma “citthu cootikhiniha ca Nluku” niiluuka coovirikanaca. (Mite. 2:11) Nluku ahomwiiriha apostolu Peturu uttonka wiira itthu yaakhumelenle nne nihukunne phi itthu yaahimyaaya inatiri ya Joweli 2:28, 29. Masi Nluku ciicammo ahomwiiriha Peturu urukunusa vakaani moolumo o iyo inatiriiyo. Aarukunusale cani? (Usome Miteko 2:16, 17. *) Uhiya wancera uhimya inatiri ya Joweli 2:28 eeraka “wahoolo,” toko cantikhiyaaya, Peturu eerale “mahuku ookhicera”—aacaka mahuku oomalela, ihinaaya ukwanyulaciya isittatti yo Yerusalemu ni itempulu ya ayuuta. Ale mahuku ookhiceraale, “atthu okhapila cotheene” yaanaahala umwaruseliya nnepa wowaarya. Iyo inthoonyera wiira uhovira ukati mwinci inatiri ya Joweli ihinaaya wiirannya.
16. Nnepa wowaarya wa Nluku ukavihenre cani nteko woolalyeera ukati wo makristau oopacera, ni unkavihera cani ilelo?
16 Nluku waamwarusela wawe nnepaawe wowaarya makristau oopacera, ayo yahancera nteko woolalyeera waahala uvariya ntuninyani motheene. Hataa phimaana apostolu Paulu, nhina iwarakha yaawantikhenlyaawe akolosu mwaakha wo 61, uyo aheera wiira “cowumpiya cotheene cimphwanyannya vathi waya irimu” caholalyeeriya ihapari comaana. (Akol. 1:23) Ukati wa Paulu, “cowumpiya cotheene” yaaciya mapuro yaacuweliya ule ukatyuule. Niikuru ca Yehova, ilelo nteko woolalyeera uhophiya mapuro menci—“mpaka micoko coottayi co ntuninyani”!—Mite. 13:47; uwehe ikwaaturu “ Kinaahala waamwarusela nnepaaka.”
ISIYANI IRUKUNUWALE?
17. Arukunuwale cani mananna cineeweeheehu inatiri ya Joweli 2:7-9?
17 Irukunuwale isiyani? Nna va, hiiva ninawiiweeha ratta inatiri ya Joweli 2:7-9. Woohincivihaca, nnyo iveerusunnyo khacinaaca nteko woolalyeera unvareehu, masi cinaaca itthu yaapankalyaaya anatoropa o Babilooniya ukati waatuphenlyaaya isittatti yo Yerusalemu mwaakha wo 607 hinaaya uwa Kristu watuninyani.
18. Isiyani ihirukunuwale?
18 Isiyani ihirukunuwale? Apoovu a Yehova anaahala upanka yotheene inhalaaya ukhitiri wiira alalyeere ihapari comaana mapuro otheene. (Mat. 24:14) Khaavo nanka kuveerunu nohala ukhitiri unihiiha uvara nteko woolalyeera urumiyeehu. Niiparakha Yehova cinnivahaawe, ninawiikurumica cinene ni ninaalalyeera ihapari co Umwene nilipaka nrima! Nithoonyeraka wiiyeviha, khaninhiya unkhuluvela Yehova wiira naahala unikavihera wiiweeha inatiri co mbiiblyani, ni waphiyaka ukati womaana, uyo naahala unithoonyera “ikhweeli cotheene.”—Joau 16:13.
