¹³ Agyapanyin Abraham asefo ankasa, Israel man no, na Yehowa Nyankopɔn ne wɔn yɛɛ apam a na odiyifo Mose yɛ ne ntamgyinafo. Ɛno yɛ bere pii a atwam no mu wɔ afe 1513 A.Y.B. mu wɔ sare no so ne wɔ Bepɔw Sinai ho. Ɛhɔ na ɔde ne Mmara maa wɔn. Ɛdefa Mmara yi ho no, ɔsomafo Paulo kyerɛwee sɛ: “Enti mmara ayɛ yɛn yɛnfo a ɛkyerɛ yɛn Kristo so kwan, na wɔafi gyidi mu abu yɛn bem.” (Galatifo 3:24) Afei dɛn na Kristo Yesu kae wɔ Mmara a wɔnam Mose so de mae no ho? Bere a wobisaa no nea ɛyɛ “mmara no mu kɛse” no, Yesu buae sɛ: “Dɔ [Yehowa] wo Nyankopɔn wo koma [Hela: kar·diʹa] nyinaa mu ne wo kra [psy·kheʹ] nyinaa mu ne w’adwene [di·a·noiʹa] nyinaa mu! Eyi ne mmara no mu kɛse ne nea edi kan. Na nea etia abien te sɛ ɛno: Dɔ wo yɔnko sɛ wo ho! Mmara nsɛm abien yi so na mmara ne adiyifo nyinaa sɛn.” (Mateo 22:35-40) Ɛha no, wɔka koma no ho asɛm de toto adwene no ho a ɛkyerɛ sɛ ɛbɛyɛ sɛnkyerɛnne kwan so “koma.”

¹⁴ Ná Yesu refa asɛm a ɛwɔ Deuteronomium 6:5 no aka wɔ hɔ, sɛ: “Na fa wo koma [Hebri: le·bab] nyinaa ne wo kra [ne’phesh] nyinaa ne w’ahoɔden nyinaa dɔ [Yehowa] wo Nyankopɔn.” Ne afei nso, fi Leviticus 19:18: “Dɔ wo yɔnko sɛ wo ho: Mene [Yehowa].” Enti Yesu kyerɛe sɛ saa abien no ne Mose Mmara apam no mu akɛse. Yɛn a yɛwɔ hɔ nnɛ nni Mose Mmara no ase, nanso saa nneɛma atitiriw a wɔhwehwɛ no nyɛ nea atwam. Ɛsɛ sɛ yedi so.

Enti ɛyɛ ‘koma no nyinaa’ na wɔahyɛ yɛn sɛ yɛmfa nnɔ Yehowa Nyankopɔn no. Wɔahyɛ yɛn nso sɛ yɛmfa yɛn kra nyinaa, yɛn nipadua nyinaa nnɔ Yehowa Nyankopɔn. Eyi hwehwɛ sɛ yɛde yɛn ahoɔden nyinaa bɛdɔ nokware Nyankopɔn teasefo koro, Ade Nyinaa so Tumfoɔ no, na yɛde yɛn ahoɔden nyinaa ayɛ Onyankopɔn apɛde a wada no adi no na yewie n’adwuma no koraa wɔ “nneɛma nhyehyɛe yi awiei” yi mu.
