Enkantolo yombusi ongumRoma uPilatu, uJesu umi njengesiboshwa esiboshwe ngamaketanga. Eceleni kwakhe onogada. Ihholo ligcwala ngokushesha abantu ababukele. Abahluleli bomkhandlu omkhulu, abapristi, izinduna, abadala nesixuku balindile phambi komnyango.

Ngemva kokuba iSanhedrini ilahle uJesu, uPilatu kwakulindeleke ukuba aqinisekise futhi akhiphe isahlulelo. Kodwa izikhulu zamaJuda azizange zingene enkantolo yamaRoma. Ngoba ngokwemithetho yabo yomkhosi, kwakuyobangcolisa futhi kubavimbele ukuba baye emkhosini wePhasika. Babeyizimpumputhe kangangokuthi abazange bakubone ukungcoliswa kwenzondo ebulalayo eyayisezinhliziyweni zabo. Babengaboni ukuthi uJesu wayeyiWundlu langempela lePhasika nokuthi umkhosi omkhulu wawungasenamsebenzi kubo ngoba babemnqabile.

Njengoba umhlengi eyiswa enkantolo, uPilatu wambheka kabi. Umbusi waseRoma wayebizwe ngokushesha ekamelweni lakhe lokulala. Ngakho wayefuna ukwenza umsebenzi wenziwe ngokushesha ngangokunokwenzeka. Wayezohlangana nesiboshwa ngensimbi. Ngendlela abukeka ngayo, waphenduka. Kwakuwumuntu onjani owaphazamisa ukuphumula kwakhe ekuseni kangaka? Wayazi ukuthi kwakufanele kube umuntu iziphathimandla zamaJuda ezazifuna ukwenza umsebenzi omfushane ngaye.

UPilatu wabheka amadoda ayeqaphe uJesu; khona-ke amehlo akhe ahlala kuJesu. Wayeke wabhekana nezigebengu zalo lonke uhlobo. Kodwa akakaze anikezwe umuntu umusa ongaka kanye nemimoya ephakeme ebhalwe ebusweni bakhe. Wayengaboni zimpawu zokuthi unecala, ukwesaba, ukudelela noma ukudelela. Wayebuka indoda eyayicwebezela ezolile nesithunzi. Izici zakhe azizange ziphakamise isigebengu; kunalokho, babephethe umbhalo wesandla wasezulwini. Ukuvela kukaJesu kwamthinta kahle uPilatu. Lokho kwaveza uhlangothi lwakhe oluhle. Yebo, wayesezwile ngoJesu nomsebenzi wakhe. Umkakhe naye wayemtshelile ngezimangaliso zalo mprofethi waseGalile, owayekwazi ukuphulukisa abagulayo nokuvusa abafileyo. Kwabuya konke kuye sengathi iphupho alikhohliwe. Wakhumbula amahlebezi ayelethwe kuye eqhamuka ezindaweni ezahlukene. Ngakho wanquma ukubuza amaJuda ukuthi yimaphi amacala ayengawabeka ngesiboshwa.

Ubani le ndoda?

"Ubani lo muntu futhi nimletheleni lapha? " embuza. “Nimsola ngani na?” AmaJuda akhathazeka. Babazi kahle kamhlophe ukuthi babengenakukufakazela lokho ababemangalela ngakho uJesu. Yingakho bengafuni ukuphenywa esidlangalaleni! Baphendula bathi ungumkhohlisi ogama lakhe linguJesu waseNazaretha.

UPilatu waphinde wabuza: “Nimbeka cala lini lomuntu?” ( Johane 18,29:30 ) Abapristi abazange bawuphendule lo mbuzo. Kodwa baveza intukuthelo yabo ngokuthi: “Ukube ubengesona isigebengu, besingeke simlethe kini.” ( ivesi XNUMX ) inkolelo yokuthi ufanelwe ukufa. Kusafanele yini ukubuza amacala akhe?” Babenethemba lokubonisa uPilatu ukuthi ubalulekile kubo, ukuze enze ngokuvumelana nesicelo sabo ngaphandle kokuchitha isikhathi. Kwakubalulekile kubo ukuthi ukwahlulela kwabo kuqinisekiswe ngokushesha. Ekugcineni baqaphela ukuthi noma ubani owayebone izimangaliso zikaJesu wayenokuthile ayengakusho okwakuhluke kakhulu endabeni ende ababezitshela yona.

Abapristi babecabanga ukuthi bangawenza kalula amacebo abo ngoba uPilatu wayengumuntu obuthakathaka futhi oguquguqukayo. Esikhathini esidlule, wayesayine ngamawala izincwadi ezigunyaza ukubulawa, egwebela ukufa abantu okwakungabafanele. Impilo yesiboshwa yayingabaleki kangako kuye. Wayengenandaba nokuthi ummangalelwa unecala noma cha. Abapristi babenethemba lokuthi uPilatu wayezophinde akhiphe isigwebo sokufa kuJesu ngaphandle kwenqubo yomthetho efanele. Bakucela lokhu njengokwenzelwa umusa ngesikhathi somkhosi wabo omkhulu kazwelonke.

Kodwa kukhona okuthile ngesiboshwa okwavimba uPilatu. Akazange alokothe ​​enze isifiso sakhe. Wabona ngokuziphatha kwabapristi ngokucacile kakhulu. Wakhumbula indlela uJesu ayesanda kuvusa ngayo uLazaru, indoda eyayinezinsuku ezine ifile. Ngaphambi kokuthi asayine isinqumo ubezifela ngokulalela amacala abekwe wona abone nobufakazi.

“Nilethelani isiboshwa kimi, uma ukwahlulelwa kwenu kulungile na? “Mthatheni nihambe naye nimlahle ngokomthetho wenu.” ( Ivesi 31 ) Bekhonjwe ngale ndlela, abapristi bathi kakade base bemlahlile uJesu. Nokho, isinqumo sisadinga ukuqinisekiswa ukuze sibe ngujuqu. “Uthini ukwahlulela kwakho na?” kubuza uPilatu. Baphendula bathi: “Simgwebele ukufa. “Kodwa akumelwe sibulale muntu.” Bacela uPilatu ukuba alalele izwi labo futhi alahle uJesu ngecala futhi afeze isigwebo sabo. Babezoziphendulela ngalokho.

UPilatu wayengeyena umahluleli onobulungisa noma oqotho. Nokho, naphezu kobuthakathaka bakhe bokuziphatha, wenqaba ukwenza ngokuvumelana nalesi sicelo. Wayengafuni ukusola uJesu kwaze kwavezwa amacala ayebekwe wona.

Amacala

Manje abapristi babedidekile kakhulu. Babona ukuthi ubuzenzisi babo babungeke buvezwe. Ngoba ukube kwakubonakala ukuthi babophe uJesu ngezizathu ezingokwenkolo, uPilatu wayengeke esaba nesithakazelo kuleli cala. Ngakho-ke kwadingeka bethule udaba njengokungathi uJesu wephule imithetho yezwe. Ngemva kwalokho wayezogwetshwa njengesigebengu sezombangazwe. Kwakukhona njalo ukuvukela igunya lombuso waseRoma phakathi kwamaJuda. AmaRoma ahlala ebeka phansi lokhu kuvukela ngokushesha futhi eqaphela ukucindezela noma yini engaholela ekuqubukeni okusha.

Ezinsukwini ezimbalwa ngaphambili, abaFarisi babezame ukuyenga uJesu ngokumbuza: “Ingabe ngempela kuyintando kaNkulunkulu ukuba sikhokhe intela kumbusi waseRoma, noma qha?” ( Luka 20,22:25 ) Kodwa uJesu wadalula ukuzenzisa kwabo. nje. AmaRoma ayekhona abona indlela icebo labakhi bozungu elabhuntsha ngokudabukisayo nendlela ababengagculisekile ngayo lapho ephendula: “Nikani uKesari okukaKesari.” ( Ivesi 1984 uLuther XNUMX ) AmaRoma ayekhona abona indlela icebo labakhi bozungu elabhuntsha ngayo ngokudabukisayo nendlela ababengagculisekile ngayo lapho ephendula: “Nikani uKesari okukaKesari.”

Manje abapristi benza sengathi uJesu wayefundise okuhlukile ngaleso sikhathi. Ekucindezelekeni kwabo, baletha ofakazi bamanga abammangalela ngokuthi: “Lo muntu uhlohla abantu bakithi. Unxenxa abantu ukuba bangayikhokhi intela kumbusi. Futhi uthi yena unguKristu, inkosi ethunywe nguNkulunkulu.” ( Luka 23,2:XNUMX ) Izinsolo ezintathu, ngayinye engenasisekelo. Abapristi babekwazi lokhu, kodwa babezimisele ukuqamba amanga uma kuzofeza umgomo wabo.

UPilatu wakubona ngezinhloso zabo. Wayengacabangi ukuthi isiboshwa sakhele uhulumeni itulo. Ngoba isimo sakhe sokubekezela nokuthobeka sasingahambisani nakancane namacala. UPilatu wayeqiniseka ukuthi kwakwenziwe uzungu olubi kakhulu lapha, ngokumelene nomuntu ongenacala owayemi endleleni yezikhulu zamaJuda. Ephendukela kuJesu, wabuza: “Ingabe ngempela uyiNkosi yamaJuda?” ( ivesi 3 ) UMsindisi waphendula: “Yebo, usho njalo!” futhi njengoba ekwenza lokho, ubuso bakhe bakhazimula sengathi ilanga liyakhanya. phezu kwakho.

Lapho bezwa le mpendulo, uKayafase nabangane bakhe bafuna ukwenza uPilatu akholelwe ukuthi ngempela uJesu wayenecala ngaleli cala. Ngokumemeza okukhulu, abapristi, ababhali nababusi bafuna isigwebo sentambo. Isixuku saphakamisa izwi, isidumo sasivala izindlebe, uPilatu edidekile. Wabona ukuthi uJesu akazange athathe isinyathelo sokuphendula ababemmangalela. Ngakho wathi kuye: ‘Ngiphendule! ... Awuzwa yini ukuthi bakumangalela kangakanani na?’ Kodwa uJesu akashongo lutho.” ( Marku 15,4.5:XNUMX )

Emi ngemva kukaPilatu, uJesu wabonakala kubo bonke ehholo legceke. Wezwa ngenhlamba kodwa akaphendulanga ekumangaleleni okungamanga. Ukuziphatha kwakhe konke kwafakazela ukuthi wayengalazi icala. Enganyakazi, wavumela ukuduma kwezulu okuduma phezu kwakhe. Kwaba sengathi amagagasi entukuthelo aphakeme naphakeme, njengamagagasi olwandle asendle, amshaya ngaphandle kokumthinta. UJesu wema lapho ethule. Kodwa ukuthula kwakhe kwakhuluma kakhulu. Kwaba sengathi kukhanya ukukhanya kuye.

UJesu wayefuna ukusindisa uPilatu

UPilatu wamangala ngokuziphatha kukaJesu. Ingabe le ndoda ayinaso nhlobo isithakazelo esivivinyweni sayo? Ingabe akafuni ukwenza okuthile ukuze asindise ukuphila kwakhe? Wazibuza-ke. Lapho ebona indlela uJesu akhuthazelela ngayo ukugconwa nokuthukwa ngaphandle kokuhlubuka, wazizwa: Lo muntu wayengenakuba mubi kakhulu futhi ongenabulungisa ngaphezu kwabapristi ababethukuthele. Enethemba lokuthola iqiniso kuJesu nokubalekela umsindo wesixuku, uPilatu wabizela uJesu eceleni waphinde wambuza: “Wena uyinkosi yabaJuda na?” ( Johane 18,33:18,33.34 ) UJesu akazange awuphendule lowo mbuzo ngaso leso sikhathi. Wayazi ukuthi uMoya oNgcwele wawulwela uPilatu. Ngakho wamnikeza ithuba lokuvuma izinkolelo zakhe. Ingabe usho kanjalo wena, noma abanye bakutshela ngami?” ( Johane 2000:34-XNUMX Schlachter XNUMX ) Lokho kusho ukuthi: Ingabe lo mbuzo wabangelwa ukumangalelwa kukaPilatu abapristi noma isifiso sokukhanyiselwa uJesu? UPilatu wayeqonda ukuthi uJesu wayesho ukuthini ngalokhu, kodwa ukuqhosha kwagcwala enhliziyweni yakhe. Wayengafuni ukulivuma icala elaliziphoqa kuye. “NgingumJuda na?” ebuza. 'Abaholi babantu bakini nabapristi abakhulu bakulethile lapha ukuze ngahlulele. Manje wenzeni?” (Ivesi XNUMX)

UPilatu wayephuthelwe yithuba eliyingqayizivele. Kodwa uJesu akazange amshiye ngaphandle kolwazi olwengeziwe. Ngaphandle kokuwuphendula ngokuqondile umbuzo wakhe, uJesu wawuchaza ngokucacile umsebenzi wakhe futhi wakwenza kwacaca ukuthi wayengahlosile ukuba nesihlalo sobukhosi emhlabeni.

Wathi: “Umbuso wami awusiwo owaleli zwe. “Ukube bengingumbusi wezwe, abantu bami bebeyongilwela ukuze ngingaweli ezandleni zamaJuda. Kodwa umbuso wami awungowolunye uhlobo.” UPilatu wambuza: “Kanti wena uyinkosi na?” UJesu waphendula: “Yebo, uqinisile. ngiyinkosi futhi ngenxa yalokhu ngaba ngumuntu, futhi ngeza kuleli zwe ukuze ngifakazele iqiniso. Noma ubani othanda ukulalela iqiniso uyangilalela.”— Johane 19,36:37-XNUMX .

Ngaleyondlela uJesu waqinisekisa ukuthi izwi lakhe ngokwalo liyisihluthulelo esiyovulela bonke abavulelekayo imfihlakalo. Amandla akhe ayazikhulumela futhi ayeyimfihlo yokuthi kungani umbuso kaJesu weqiniso usakazeka kangaka. UJesu wayefuna uPilatu aqonde ukuthi ukuphila kwakhe okunezinkathazo kwakungavuselelwa kuphela uma ayevuleleke futhi agxile eqinisweni.

UPilatu wayefuna ukwazi iqiniso. Konke kwakudida. Wawamukela ngokulangazela amazwi oMsindisi, ngisho nenhliziyo yakhe yashukunyiswa ukulangazelela ukwazi ukuthi liyini iqiniso ngempela nokuthi lingenzeka kanjani. "Iqiniso? Kuyini lokho?” ( Ivesi 38 ) wabuza. Kodwa akazange alinde ngisho impendulo. Umsindo owawungaphandle wawumkhumbuza ngokuphuthuma njengoba abefundisi babememeza befuna kuthathwe isinyathelo ngokushesha. Ngakho waphuma waya kumaJuda wamemezela ngokuqinile, “Ngokubona kwami ​​lo muntu akanacala.” ( Ivesi 38 )

Lawa mazwi, akhulunywa umahluleli ongumhedeni, ayewukusola okubukhali kwenkohliso namanga ababusi bakwaIsrayeli ababemangalele uMsindisi. Lapho abapristi namadoda amadala bezwa amazwi kaPilatu, intukuthelo yabo nokudumala kwabo kwakungenamingcele. Kwase kunesikhathi eside benza izinhlelo belinda leli thuba. Lapho bebona ukuthi uJesu angase akhululwe, bafuna ukumklebhula. Ngokuzwakalayo bamangalela uPilatu futhi bamsongela ngokumkhuza okuvela kubaphathi bamaRoma. Bamsola ngokuthi akafuni ukwahlulela uJesu. Bakugcizelele ukuthi udlala neNgonyama uqobo.

Kuzwakala amazwi acasukile manje. Babethi ithonya likaJesu lokuvukela umbuso laliyaziwa ezweni lonke. Abapristi bathi: ‘Kulo lonke elaseJudiya ubhebhezela abantu ngemfundiso yakhe. Waqala eGalile, manje usefikile eJerusalema.”— Luka 23,5:XNUMX;

Ngaphambilini uPilatu wayengahlosile ukulahla uJesu. Wayazi ukuthi amaJuda ayemmangalele ngenzondo nobandlululo. Wayazi ukuthi uyini umsebenzi wakhe. Ukuze kube nobulungisa, kwakufanele amkhulule ngokushesha uJesu. Kodwa uPilatu wayesaba ububi babantu. Uma enqaba ukunikela uJesu kubo, kwakuyoba nesiyaluyalu ayefuna ukusigwema. Lapho ezwa ukuthi uJesu uvela eGalile, wanquma ukuludlulisela kuHerode icala. Phela wayengumbusi walesiya sifundazwe. Naye wayehlala eJerusalema. Ngaleli qhinga, uPilatu wacabanga ukuthi angadlulisela icala kuHerode. Ngesikhathi esifanayo, wabona kuyithuba elihle lokuxazulula ingxabano endala phakathi kwakhe noHerode, eyaba yimpumelelo: abahluleli ababili baba abangane enkantolo yokulalela umsindisi.
