UEzra 1; 3–7; UNehemiya 2; 4–6; 8
Abantu abangamaYuda babethinjiwe eBhabheli malunga neminyaka engama-70. Babephulukene neYerusalem netempile, kwaye abaninzi babelibele imbophelelo yabo kumthetho kaThixo. Kodwa uThixo akazange abalibale. Enyanisweni, Yena wayevakalise ngomprofeti waKhe, “Ndiya kukutyelela, ndilimise kuni ilizwi lam elilungileyo, lokunibuyisela” (UYeremiya 29:10). Inyanisekile kwesi siprofeto, iNkosi yenza indlela yokuba abantu baYo babuyele—kokubini eYerusalem kwaye, okubaluleke ngakumbi, kwiminqophiso yabo. Yaye Yona yavelisa abakhonzi abaphumeza “umsebenzi omkhulu”(UNehemiya 6:3): Irhuluneli egama linguZerubhabheli yayijongene nokwakhiwa kwakhona kwendlu yeNkosi. UEzra, umbingeleli nombhali, wanceda abantu ukuba babuyisele iintliziyo zabo kumthetho weNkosi. Yaye uNehemiya wakhokela ekwakhiweni kwakhona kweendonga ezikhuselayo ezijikeleze iYerusalem. Badibana nenkcaso, kodwa baye bafumana uncedo oluvela kwimithombo engalindelekanga. Amava abo anokwazisa kwaye avuselele awethu kuba nathi senza umsebenzi omkhulu. Kwaye njengowabo, umsebenzi wethu unento enkulu yokwenza nendlu yeNkosi, nomthetho weNkosi, nokhuselo lokomoya esilufumana kuYo.
Ngesishwankathelo seencwadi zika-Ezra noNehemiya, bona “UEzra” kunye no“UNehemiya” kwiSikhokelo seZibhalo.
Iingcebiso zokufunda eKhaya naseBandleni
UEzra 1
INkosi ikhuthaza abantu ukuba baphumeze iinjongo zaYo.
Emva kokuba iPersi yoyise iBhabhiloni, iNkosi yaphefumlela ukumkani wamaPersi, uKoreshi, ukuba athumele iqela lamaYuda eYerusalem ukuze aphinde okhe itempile. Njengoko ufunda UEzra 1, qaphela into eyenziwa nguKoreshi ukuxhasa amaYuda kulo msebenzi ubalulekileyo. Uyibona njani iNkosi isebenza ngamadoda nabafazi abakungqongileyo, kuquka nabo bangengawo amalungu eBandla laYo? Oku kuthetha ntoni kuwe ngeNkosi nangomsebenzi waYo?
Bona kananjalo UIsaya 44:24–28.
UEzra 3:8–13; 6:16–22
Indlu yeNkosi yindlu yovuyo.
Xa amaBhabhiloni ahlasela iYerusalem, ayiphanga itempile aza ayitshisa yaphela (bona OoKumkani I 25:1–10; 2 IziKronike II 36:17–19). Ucinga ukuba wawunokuvakalelwa njani ukuba wawungomnye wamaYuda owakubonayo oku? (bona Iindumiso 137). Qaphela indlela awayeziva ngayo amaYuda, kumashumi eminyaka kamva, xa ayevunyelwe ukuba abuye aphinde okhe itempile (bona UEzra 3:8–13; 6:16–22). Oko kungakukhuthaza ukuba ucinge ngeemvakalelo zakho malunga neNkosi nendlu yaYo. Kutheni ukwakhiwa kwetempile kusisizathu sokubhiyoza?

UThixo unomsebenzi afuna ukuba ndiwenze.

Kwizizukulwana ekuthinjweni, amaYuda ayenokufikelela okulinganiselweyo “kwincwadi yomthetho kaMoses” (UNehemiya 8:1). Ku Nehemiya 8, uEzra wawufundela abantu umthetho. Yintoni oyifumanayo kwesi sahluko ebonisa indlela uEzra nabantu bakhe ababevakalelwa ngayo ngoThixo nangelizwi laKhe? (bona ngakumbi imiqolo 1–12). Yintoni ebomini bakho ebonisa indlela oziva ngayo ngoThixo nangelizwi laKhe?
