ʻOku ʻikai faingataʻa ke sio ki he ʻuhinga ʻoku vakai ai ki he ʻEukalisiá ko e meʻa fakaemaná. Ko e mōmeniti tefito ʻo e kātoangá ʻoku hoko ia lolotonga ʻa hono lotuʻi ʻo e ʻEukalisiá. ʻI he tuʻunga ko iá, fakatatau ki he lau ʻa e Catechism of the Catholic Church, “ko e mālohi ʻo e ngaahi foʻi leá mo e ngāue ʻa Kalaisí, pea mo e mālohi ʻo e Laumālie Māʻoniʻoní” ʻokú ne ʻai ai ʻa e sino mo e  taʻataʻa ʻo Sīsuú ke “ʻi ai fakasākalameniti.” Ko e pātelé, hili ʻene maʻu ʻinasi mei he maá mo e uainé, ʻokú ne fakaafeʻi ʻa e kau faitōnungá ke nau maʻu ʻa e Sākalamenití, ʻo faʻa hoko ko hono kai pē ʻo e mā ʻo e ʻeukalisiá.

Ko e Fokotuʻu ʻa e “ʻOhomohe ʻo e ʻEiki”

Naʻe fokotuʻu ʻe Sīsū tonu ʻa e “ʻOhomohe ʻo e ʻEiki,” pe Fakamanatu ʻo ʻene pekiá. (1 Kolinito 11:20, 24) Kae kehe, naʻá ne fokotuʻu ha ouau fakamisiteli ʻa ia ʻe kai moʻoni ai ʻe hono kau muimuí ʻa hono sinó mo inu ʻa hono taʻataʻá?

Ko e toki ʻosi ia ʻo e kātoangaʻi ʻe Sīsū ʻa e Pāsova faka-Siú pea fakangofua ke mavahe ʻa Siutasi ʻIsikaliote, ʻa e ʻapositolo naʻe teu ke ne lavakiʻi iá. Ko Mātiu, ʻa e taha ʻo e kau ʻapositolo ʻe toko 11 ne ʻi aí, naʻá ne fakamatala: “Pea lolotonga ʻenau kai, naʻe toʻo ʻe Sisu ha foʻi ma, ʻo ne tapuaki ia, mo ne pakipaki ʻo tufaki ki he kau ako, ʻo ne pehe, Toʻo ʻo kai; [“ʻoku ʻuhingá,” NW] ko hoku sino ʻeni. Naʻa ne toʻo foki ha ipu, mo ne fakafetaʻi [faka-Kalisí, eu·kha·ri·ste΄sas], ʻo ne ʻange kiate kinautolu, mo ne pehe, Mou inu kotoa pe mei ai; he [“ʻoku ʻuhingá,” NW] ko hoku toto ʻeni ko e toto fuakava, ʻa ia ʻoku lilingi koeʻuhi ko e tokolahi ke lava ai ʻa e fakamolemole angahala.”—Mātiu 26:26-28.

Kia Sīsū, pea pehē ki he kotoa ʻo e kau sevāniti ʻa e ʻOtuá, ko e meʻa totonu ʻa hono kole ha tāpuaki ki he meʻakaí. (Teutalonome 8:10; Mātiu 6:11; 14:19; 15:36; Maake 6:41; 8:6; Sione 6:11, 23; Ngāue 27:35; Loma 14:6) ʻOku ʻi ai ha ʻuhinga ke tui ai ʻi he fai ʻo e fakamāloó, naʻe toe fakahoko ai ʻe Sīsū ha mana, ʻo fakatupunga ai ke kai moʻoni ʻe hono kau muimuí ʻa hono kakanó mo inu hono taʻataʻá?

‘ʻOku ʻUhinga ʻEní’ pe “ko . . . ʻEni”?

Ko ia ai, ʻoku fakalea ʻi he ngaahi liliu Tohi Tapu ʻe niʻihi ʻa e ngaahi lea ʻa Sīsuú ʻo peheni: “Toʻo ʻo kai; ko hoku sinó ʻeni,” mo e “Mou inu kotoa pē, koeʻuhi ko hoku totó ʻeni.” (Mātiu 26:26-28, Conferenza Episcopale Italiana; The New Jerusalem Bible) Ko e moʻoni foki ko e foʻi lea faka-Kalisi ko e e·stin΄, ko ha faʻunga ia ʻo e foʻi veape faka-Kalisi ko e “hoko,” ʻoku ʻuhinga tefito iá ko e “ko.” Ka ko e foʻi veape tatau ʻoku toe ʻuhinga iá ko e “fakaʻilongaʻi.” ʻOku mālié, ʻi he ngaahi liliu lahi ʻo e Tohi Tapú, ko e foʻi veape ko ení ʻoku toutou liliu ia ko e “ʻuhinga” pe “tuʻu fakatātā ki he.” b Ko e potutohí ʻokú ne fakapapauʻi ʻa e liliu tonu tahá. Hangē ko ení, ʻi he Mātiu 12:7, ʻoku liliu ai ʻa e e·stin ko e “ʻuhinga” ʻi he ngaahi liliu Tohi Tapu lahi: “Ka ne mou ʻilo hono ʻuhinga [faka-Kalisí, e·stin] ʻo e meʻa ni, ko e mēsi ʻoku ou tangi ki ai, ʻo ʻikai ko e feilaulau, pehe ne ʻikai te mou fakahalaia ʻa e ʻataʻatā.”—CEI; Douay Version.

ʻI he meʻá ni, kuo felotoi ai ʻa e kau mataotao Tohi Tapu tokolahi ʻoku fakaʻapaʻapaʻí ko e foʻi lea “ko” ʻoku ʻikai te ne liliu totonu ʻa e fakakaukau naʻe fakahaaʻi heni ʻe Sīsuú. Ko e fakatātaá,  naʻe vakaiʻi ʻe Jacques Dupont ʻa e anga fakafonua mo e sōsaieti ʻa ia naʻe nofo ai ʻa Sīsuú ʻo ne fakaʻosiʻaki “ko e fakanatula taha” ʻi hono liliu ʻo e vēsí ʻoku totonu ke peheni: “ʻOku ʻuhinga ʻení ko hoku sinó” pe “ʻOku fakafofongaʻi ʻe he meʻá ni ʻa hoku sinó.”

ʻI ha tuʻunga pē, naʻe ʻikai lava ke pehē naʻe ʻuhinga ʻa Sīsuú ko hono kau muimuí naʻa nau kai moʻoni ʻa hono kakanó mo inu ʻa hono totó. Ko e hā hono ʻuhingá? Hili e Lōmaki ʻo e ʻaho ʻo Noá, ʻi hono ʻoange ʻe he ʻOtuá ʻa e ngofua ke kai ʻa e kakano ʻo e fanga monumanú, naʻá ne tapui fakahangatonu ai ʻa e tangatá mei hono kai ʻo e totó. (Senesi 9:3, 4) Ko e fekaú ni naʻe toe fai ia ʻi he Lao ʻa Mōsesé, ʻa ia naʻe talangofua kakato ki ai ʻa Sīsū. (Teutalonome 12:23; 1 Pita 2:22) Pea naʻe fakamānavaʻi ʻa e kau ʻapositoló ʻe he laumālie māʻoniʻoní ke nau toe fakahaaʻi ʻa e fekau ke ʻoua ʻe kai ʻa e totó, ʻo ʻai ʻa e lao ko iá ke kau ki ai ʻa e kau Kalisitiane kotoa pē. (Ngāue 15:20, 29) ʻE fokotuʻu ʻe Sīsū ha kātoanga ʻa ia ʻe fiemaʻu ai ʻa hono kau muimuí ke nau maumauʻi ha lao toputapu ʻa e ʻOtua Māfimafi-Aoniú? Mole ke mamaʻo!

ʻOku mahino leva, naʻe ngāueʻaki ʻe Sīsū ʻa e maá mo e uainé ko e ongo meʻa fakaefakatātā. Ko e mā taʻelēvaní naʻe ʻuhinga iá, pe naʻá ne fakafofongaʻi ʻa hono sino taʻehaangahala ʻa ia ʻe feilaulauʻí. Naʻe fakaʻilongaʻi ʻe he uaine kulokulá ʻa hono taʻataʻá ʻa ia ʻe lilingi “koeʻuhi ko e tokolahi ke lava ai ʻa e fakamolemole angahala.”—Mātiu 26:28.

Ko e Taumuʻa ʻo e ʻOhomohe ʻa e ʻEikí

Naʻe fakaʻosiʻaki ʻe Sīsū ʻa e ʻuluaki fakamanatu ʻo e ʻOhomohe ʻa e ʻEikí ʻa e ngaahi leá ni: “Mou fai ʻeni mōku fakamanatu.” (Luke 22:19) Ko e kātoangá ʻokú ne tokoniʻi moʻoni kitautolu ke  tau manatuʻi ʻa Sīsū mo e ngaahi meʻa fakaofo naʻe fakahoko ʻi heʻene pekiá. ʻOku fakamanatu mai ai naʻe pouaki ʻe Sīsū ʻa e tuʻunga-hau ʻo ʻene Tamaí, ʻa Sihova. ʻOku toe fakamanatu mai ai fakafou heʻene pekia ko ha tangata haohaoa, taʻehaangahalá, naʻe foaki ai ʻe Sīsū “ʻene moʻui ke huhuʻiʻaki ha tokolahi, heʻene fetongi kinautolu.” ʻOku ʻai ʻe he huhuʻí ke malava ki ha taha pē te ne ngāueʻi ʻa e tui ki heʻene feilaulaú ke fakatauʻatāinaʻi mei he angahalá pea ke ne maʻu ʻa e moʻui taʻengatá.—Mātiu 20:28.

Ka ko e meʻa tefitó, ko e ʻOhomohe ʻa e ʻEikí ko ha kai fakataha ia. Ko e faʻahinga ʻoku kau ki aí ko (1) Sihova ko e ʻOtuá, ʻa ia naʻá ne fokotuʻutuʻu ʻa e huhuʻí, (2) Sīsū Kalaisi, “ʻa e Lami ʻa e ʻOtua,” ʻa ia naʻá ne tokonaki ʻa e huhuʻí, pea mo e (3) fanga tokoua fakalaumālie ʻo Sīsuú. ʻI he maʻu ʻinasi he maá mo e uainé, ʻoku fakahaaʻi ʻi hono inu ʻa e uainé ʻoku nau fāʻūtaha kakato mo Kalaisi. (Sione 1:29; 1 Kolinito 10:16, 17) ʻOku nau toe fakahaaʻi ai ʻoku nau ʻi he “fuakava foʻou” ʻi he tuʻunga ko e kau ākonga ʻa Sīsū kuo pani ʻe he laumālié. Ko e faʻahinga eni te nau pule fakataha mo Kalaisi ʻi hēvani ko e ngaahi tuʻi mo e kau taulaʻeiki.—Luke 22:20; Sione 14:2, 3; Fakahā 5:9, 10.
