Ka naʻe hīkisia ʻa Felo ʻo ʻikai te ne tukuange ʻa e kau ʻIsilelí. Ko ia naʻe tauteaʻi ʻe Sihova ʻa e kau ʻIsipité ʻaki ʻa e mala fakalilifu ʻe hongofulu. Lolotonga ʻa e mala hono hongofulú, naʻe tāmateʻi ai e ʻuluaki foha ʻo e kau ʻIsipité. Hili iá, naʻe fili ʻa Felo ke tukuange ʻa e kau ʻIsilelí.—ʻEki. 1:11; 3:9, 10; 5:1, 2; 11:1, 5.
5. Ko e hā naʻe fekau ke fai ʻe he kau ʻIsilelí ki muʻa ke fakatauʻatāinaʻi kinautolú? (Sio ki he ʻuluaki fakatātā ʻi he kupú ni.)
5 Ka ki muʻa ke fakatauʻatāinaʻi ʻa e kau ʻIsilelí, naʻe pau ke nau muimui ʻi ha ngaahi fakahinohino pau ʻe niʻihi. Naʻe hoko eni ʻi he faʻahitaʻu failau ʻo e taʻu 1513 ki muʻa ʻia Kalaisí, ʻi he māhina ko ʻĀpipi, ʻa ia naʻe ui ki mui ko Nīsaní.a Naʻe tala ange ʻe he ʻOtuá ke nau kamata teuteu ʻi Nīsani 10 ki ha meʻa ʻe hoko ʻi he tō ʻa e laʻaá ʻi Nīsani 14. Ko e hā ke fai ai ʻi he tō ʻa e laʻaá? Koeʻuhí naʻe kamata mo ngata ʻa e ngaahi ʻaho faka-Hepeluú ʻi he tō ʻa e laʻaá. ʻI he aʻu ki Nīsani 14, naʻe pau ki he fāmili taki taha ke nau tāmateʻi ha sipi (pe kosi) tangata pea afuhi ha konga ʻo e totó ʻi he kaumatapā ʻo e falé. (ʻEki. 12:3-7, 22, 23) Naʻe pau ke kai ʻe he fāmilí ha sipi tunu fakataha mo e mā taʻelēvani mo e fanga kiʻi ʻakau fakanamulelei. Naʻe laka atu ʻa e ʻāngelo ʻa e ʻOtuá ʻi he fonuá ʻo tāmateʻi ʻa e ʻuluaki foha ʻo e kau ʻIsipité, ka naʻe ʻikai ke tāmateʻi ʻa e ʻuluaki foha ʻo e kau ʻIsileli talangofuá.

6. Ko e hā naʻe hokohoko atu ai ʻa e kau ʻIsilelí ke kātoangaʻi ʻa e Pāsová ʻi he taʻu taki taha?
6 Naʻe pau ki he kau ʻIsilelí ke nau manatuʻi ʻa e ʻaho naʻe fakatauʻatāinaʻi ai kinautolu ʻe he ʻOtuá mei ʻIsipité. Naʻe tala ange ʻe he ʻOtuá: “Koe aho ni e iate kimoutolu ke fakamanatu: bea te mou tauhi ia o fai ae katoaga kia Jihova i ho mou gaahi toutagata tuku fakaholo: te mou tauhi ia koe katoaga i he tuutuuni taegata.” Hili ʻa e kātoanga Pāsova ʻi Nīsani 14, naʻe toe kātoangaʻi ʻe he kau ʻIsilelí ha kātoanga ʻaho ʻe fitu naʻe ui ko e Kātoanga ʻo e Mā Taʻelēvani. ʻI hono fakatahaʻí, ko e ʻaho ʻe valu ko ení ʻe lava ke toe ui ia ko e Pāsova. (ʻEki. 12:14-17, PM; Luke 22:1; Sione 18:28; 19:14) Ko e Pāsová ko e taha ia ʻi he ngaahi kātoanga, pe “ngaahi fakamanatu,” naʻe fekau ki he kau ʻIsilelí ke nau kātoangaʻi ʻi he taʻu taki taha.—2 Kal. 8:13, The Bible in Living English.
7. Ko e hā ʻa e kātoanga foʻou naʻe tala ange ʻe Sīsū ke kātoangaʻi ʻe hono kau muimuí?
7 Ko Sīsū mo e kau ʻapositoló ko e kau Siu pea naʻa nau talangofua ki he Lao ʻa Mōsesé, ko ia naʻa nau kātoangaʻi ʻa e Pāsová. (Māt. 26:17-19) ʻI heʻenau Pāsova fakataha fakamuimuí, naʻe pehē ʻe Sīsū ko hono kau muimuí te nau kātoangaʻi ha kātoanga foʻou ʻi he taʻu taki taha.

8. Ko e hā ʻa e fehuʻi ʻe ʻeke nai ʻe ha niʻihi fekauʻaki mo e Pāsová mo e Kai Efiafi ʻa e ʻEikí?

Ko ia ko e Kai Efiafi ʻa e ʻEikí naʻe fai ia ʻi he ʻaho tatau mo e Pāsová. Neongo ia, te ke fakatokangaʻi nai ko e kau Siu he ʻaho ní ʻoku ʻikai nai ke nau kātoangaʻi ʻa e Pāsová ʻi he ʻaho tofu pē ko ia ʻoku tau kātoangaʻi ai ʻa e Fakamanatu ʻo e pekia ʻa Kalaisí. Ko e hā ʻoku kehekehe aí? Ko e tuʻutuʻuni ʻa e ʻOtuá ki he kau ʻIsilelí fekauʻaki mo e kamata ʻo e Pāsová ʻoku tokoniʻi ai kitautolu ke tali ʻa e fehuʻi ko ení. Naʻe tala ange ʻe he ʻOtuá ki he kakaí ʻa e taimi ʻi Nīsani 14 ke tāmateʻi ai ʻa e sipi, ʻa ia ko e taimi ia ʻe kamata ai ʻa e Pāsová.—Lau ʻa e ʻEkisoto 12:5, 6.

10. ʻOku tui ʻa e niʻihi naʻe tāmateʻi fakakū ʻa e lami Pāsová? Ka ko e hā ʻa e fehuʻi kuo pau ke tau ʻeké?
10 ʻI he ngaahi taimi ki muí, naʻe ongoʻi ʻe he kau Siu ʻe niʻihi ʻe fiemaʻu ʻa e taimi lahi ke tāmateʻi ai ʻa e lami kotoa naʻe ʻomai ki he temipalé. Ko ia naʻa nau tui ko e kupuʻi lea ko e “vahaʻa ʻo e ongo efiafi ʻe uá” ʻi he ʻEkisoto 12:6 (NW) naʻe lave ia ki he ngataʻanga ʻo Nīsani 14, ʻi he vahaʻa ʻo e kamata ke ʻalu hifo ʻa e laʻaá ʻi he hoʻataá mo e taimi naʻe tō ai ʻi he efiafí. Ka ʻo kapau naʻe tāmateʻi ʻa e lamí ʻi he ngataʻanga ʻo Nīsani 14, ko fē ʻa e taimi ʻe kai ai ʻe he kau ʻIsilelí ʻa e kai ʻo e Pāsová? Fakatatau kia Palōfesa Jonathan Klawans, ʻe kai ia ʻi Nīsani 15. Ka ʻokú ne fakahaaʻi naʻe ʻikai tala mai fakahangatonu eni ia ʻi he tohi ʻa ʻEkisoto ʻi he Tohi Tapú. ʻOkú ne toe pehē ko e ngaahi tohi ʻa e kau lāpaí ʻoku ʻikai lave ia ki he founga naʻe kātoangaʻi ai ʻa e Pāsová ki muʻa ʻi he taʻu 70, ʻa ia ko e taʻu ia naʻe fakaʻauha ai ʻa e temipalé.

11 Ko e hā leva ʻa e ʻaho naʻe kātoangaʻi ai ʻa e kai Pāsová ʻi he taʻu 33? Sai, ʻi he ʻaho ki muʻa ʻi he Pāsová, ʻi Nīsani 13, naʻe tala ange ʻe Sīsū kia Pita mo Sione: “Mo ō ʻo teuteu ʻa e Pāsová maʻatautolu ke tau kai.” (Luke 22:7, 8) ʻI Nīsani 14 leva, ʻa ia ko e efiafi Tuʻapulelulu hili ʻa e tō ʻa e laʻaá, naʻe kai ʻe Sīsū mo ʻene kau ʻapositoló ʻa e kai ʻo e Pāsová. Hili ʻa e kai ko iá, naʻá ne ʻoange ai kia kinautolu ʻa e ngaahi fakahinohino fekauʻaki mo e Kai Efiafi ʻa e ʻEikí. (Luke 22:14, 15) Ko e pō ko iá naʻe puke ai ia pea fakamāuʻí. Naʻe tautau ʻa Sīsū ʻi ha ʻakau fakamamahi ofi ki he hoʻatā ʻo Nīsani 14, pea ko e hoʻatā ko iá naʻá ne pekia ai. (Sione 19:14) Ko ia “ko Kalaisi ko hotau pāsová” naʻá ne feilaulauʻi ʻene moʻuí ʻi he ʻaho tatau pē naʻe tāmateʻi ai ʻa e lami Pāsová. (Māt. 26:2; 1 Kol. 5:7; 11:23) Naʻe tanu ʻa Sīsū ki muʻa ʻi he kamata ʻa e ʻaho hono hokó, ʻa Nīsani 15.b—Liv. 23:5-7; Luke 23:54.

14. Ko e hā ʻa e lēsoni mei he Pāsová ʻe lava ke akoʻi ʻe he ngaahi mātuʻa Kalisitiané ki heʻenau fānaú?
14 ʻI he tuʻunga ko e ngaahi mātuʻa Kalisitiané, ʻoku ʻikai fekauʻi ia ke mou fakamatalaʻi ki hoʻomou fānaú ʻa e talanoa fekauʻaki mo e Pāsová he taʻu kotoa pē. Ka ʻoku mou akoʻi kia kinautolu ʻa e lēsoni ko eni mei he Pāsová, ko e ʻOtuá ʻokú ne maluʻi ʻene kakaí? ʻOku hā mahino ki hoʻo fānaú ʻokú ke tui moʻoni ʻoku kei maluʻi pē kitautolu ʻe he ʻOtuá he ʻahó ni? (Saame 27:11; ʻAi. 12:2) ʻOkú ke akoʻi kia kinautolu ʻa e lēsoni ko ení lolotonga ha fetalanoaʻaki fakafiefia kae ʻikai ko ha malanga? Ko e lēsoni ko ení te ne tokoniʻi ho fāmilí ke nau toe falala ange kia Sihova.
15, 16. Ko e hā ʻe lava ke tau ako fekauʻaki mo Sihova mei he Pāsová mo e ngaahi fakamatala ʻi he ʻEkisotó?
15 Ko ha lēsoni mahuʻinga ʻe taha ʻe lava ke tau ako mei he Pāsová ʻoku malava ʻe Sihova ʻo ʻikai ngata pē hono maluʻi ʻene kakaí kae toe fakahaofi kinautolu.

17 ʻOku ʻikai kātoangaʻi ʻe he kau Kalisitiane moʻoní ʻa e Pāsová. Ko e fakamanatu ko iá ko e konga ia ʻo e Lao ʻa Mōsesé, pea ʻoku ʻikai ke tau muimui ki he Lao ko iá.

19. ʻE lava fēfē ke fakaivimālohiʻi ʻetau falala-pau ki he kikite Fakatohitapú ʻi he founga naʻe pekia ai ʻa Sīsuú?
19 ʻI he taimi naʻe tāmateʻi ai ʻa e lamí ki he kai ʻo e Pāsová, naʻe pau ki he kau ʻIsilelí ke ʻoua naʻa fesiʻi hano hui.

(Sione 1:29) Naʻe tautau ia ʻi ha ʻakau fakamamahi fakataha mo ha ongo faihia ʻi hono ongo tafaʻakí. Naʻe kole ʻe he kau Siú kia Pailato ke fesiʻi ʻa e hui ʻo Sīsū mo e ongo faihiá koeʻuhí ke vave ange ʻenau maté. ʻI he foungá ni, ʻe lava ke tuku hifo ai honau sinó mei he ʻakau fakamamahí ki muʻa ʻi Nīsani 15, ʻa e Sāpate lōuá.

20 Neongo ia, ʻoku ʻi ai ʻa e ngaahi faikehekehe ʻi he founga naʻe kātoangaʻi ai ʻe he kau Siú ʻa e Pāsová mo e founga naʻe tala ʻe Sīsū ki heʻene kau ākongá ke fakahoko ai ʻa e Kai Efiafi ʻa e ʻEikí.
