Loku bekumane kungulenye inkinga etinkingeni letinyenti titsa taJesu lebetifuna kutfola lokutsite lokuphutsa kuye nebafundzi bakhe. UMtsetfo waMosi bewukhuluma ngemiyalo leminyenti lemayelana nekuhlanteka lokuhambisana nelisiko lokufaka ekhatsi kuya esikhatsini, kuba nebulephelo kanye nekubamba tidvumbu tebantfu netetilwane. Bewuphindze unikete neticondziso tekutsi nawugcolile ungahlantwa njani. Loku bekungentiwa ngekutsi wentelwe umhlatjelo nome ugezwe.​—Levi., tehl. 11-15; Num., tehl. 19.

Borabi bemaJuda bebachaza yonkhe imininigwane yalemitsetfo. Lokunye kwatiswa kuveta kutsi nangabe wente lokunye kwalokungahlanteki “bekufanele uphekwe ngemibuto mayelana netimo lokungenteka tikubangele kugula, ngendlela nelizinga longatselela ngalo labanye, tintfo lotisebentisile lokungenteka utingcolisile kanye nemisimeto lokufanele uyente kute uphindze uhlanteke.”

Labo labebaphikisa Jesu bambuta batsi: “Kwentiwa yini kutsi bafundzi bakho bangalihloniphi lisiko labokhokho, kodvwa badle ngetandla letingcolile?” (Mak. 7:5) Letitsa tenkholo betingakhulumeli kutsi akukaphephi kudla ngetandla letingcolile. Njengobe bekulisiko, laborabi bebafuna kutsi kutselwe emanti etandleni temuntfu ngaphambi kwekutsi adle. Lokwatiswa lesikhulume ngako ngenhla kuyengeta: “Bebaphindze baphikisana ngekutsi ngusiphi sitja lokufanele sisetjentiswe nabatsela emanti etandleni temuntfu, nguluphi luhlobo lwemanti lokufanele lusetjentiswe, ngubani lokufanele atsele emanti futsi kufanele timantiswe ngelizinga lelingakanani.”

Watjela labaholi benkholo yemaJuda bangelikhulu lekucala watsi: “Isaya waphrofetha kufanele ngani nine batentisi njengobe kubhaliwe kutsi: ‘Labantfu bangidvumisa ngemilomo yabo, kodvwa tinhlitiyo tabo tikhashane [naJehova]. Kungikhonta kwabo kulite ngobe bafundzisa timfundziso tebantfu.’ Aniyigcini imitsetfo yaNkulunkulu, kodvwa nibambelele emasikweni ebantfu.”​—Mak. 7:6-8.
