Printable ModeLuca 16:23
|
16:23 Pe când era el în Locuinţa morţilor, în chinuri, şi-a ridicat ochii în sus, a văzut de departe pe Avraam, şi pe Lazăr în sânul lui, Locuinţa morţilor. [,,Iad”, KJV]. Gr. hades ,,mormânt” sau ,,moarte” (vezi la Matei 11,23). Hades este locuinţa tuturor oamenilor, buni sau răi, până la înviere. Literal, Lazăr urma să fie şi el acolo. Chinuri. Gr. basanoi, înrudit cu verbul basanizo, care este folosit cu privire la persoane care suferă intens de boală (Matei 8,6), cu privire la valurile mării care se zbat (Matei 14,24) şi cu privire la ucenicii care se ,,necăjeau” la vâslire (Marcu 6,48). Este folosit şi cu privire la frământarea emoţională (2 Petru 2,8) şi cu privire la ,,chinul” de care duhurile rele se temeau când au fost aduse faţă în faţă cu Isus (Matei 8,29; Marcu 5,7; Luca 8,28). Basanos (singularul de la basanoi) pare deci să însemne suferinţă sau frământare acută. Ideea că la moarte oamenii merg într-un loc unde suferă ,,chinuri” este cu totul străină de Scripturi care învaţă lămurit că ,,morţii nu ştiu nimic” (Eclesiastul 9,5; vezi la Psalmii 146,4). Isus Însuşi asemăna moartea cu un somn (vezi Ioan11,11.14). A concluziona din această parabolă că Isus învăţa că la moarte cei răi sunt duşi într-un loc unde suferă ,,chinuri” înseamnă a-L face să contrazică aici învăţăturile Sale clare asupra subiectului acestuia date cu alte ocazii, ca şi învăţăturile Bibliei ca un tot. Păcătoşii vor avea să încerce chinurile în foc (vezi la Matei 5,22) în ,,iadul” gheenei, nu în hades. Deci, când Isus l-a prezentat pe omul bogat ,,chinuit în văpaia acesta” (Luca 16,24), în hades, el vorbeşte în mod clar la figurat şi este neîntemeiat să interpretăm cuvintele Lui literal. Pentru principiile de interpretare cuprinse în explicaţia parabolelor vezi la v. 19. Ochii. Trupul omului bogat, acum în hades, este fără viaţă. El nu poate să vadă (vezi la v. 24). A văzut de departe pe Avraam. [,,Vede pe Avraam”, KJV]. Se poate ca cerul şi iadul să fie la o astfel de depărtare ca să se audă glasul şi ca aceia care sunt în cer să fie martori la suferinţele prietenilor şi a celor dragi în iad fără să fie în stare să aline chinul, în timp ce cei din iad pot să observe fericirea celor drepţi în cer? Şi totuşi aceasta este exact ce învaţă parabola aceasta dacă este luată literal (vezi la v. 19). Dar cei care cred că este literală se vor grăbi să adauge că ,,sânul lui Avraam” este numai o figură de vorbire, că sfinţii nu se odihnesc literal în ,,sânul” lui. Şi vor mai declara că apropierea cerului şi iadului, descrise aici, este de asemenea figurată. Dar în clipa în care admit că partea acesta şi alte părţi evident figurate ale parabolei trebuie să fie luate literal, admit caracterul figurat al întregii parabole. Dacă nu sunt dispuşi să admită că întreaga parabolă este figurată, sunt constrânşi să admită că decizia lor cu privire la faptul dacă o parte trebuie sau nu să fie luată figurat este doar o chestiune a propriei lor alegeri arbitrare şi nu este bazată pe vreun principiu de interpretare clar definit şi consecvent. Lazăr în sânul lui. Vezi la v. 22. Dovezile textuale pot fi citate (cf. p. 146) pentru exprimarea ,,Lazăr odihnind în sânul lui”. |

Special note for ANDROID SmartPhones
I recommend to download PhoneMe emulator for Android from here.
Especially I recommend phoneME Advanced - Foundation Profile + MIDP High Resolution b168 rev20547 from here, or from here.
Then you have to build your application, to transfer the .jar and .jad files on your mobile phone and run using this nice emulator.
1. Install a Zip Utility from Android Market.
2. Install a File Manager from Android Market.
3. Download and install PhoneMe, as mentioned above.
4. Build your application by using Download Multilingual Service or Dynamic Download (zip).
5. Copy the zip file into your Android Phone and unzip the content in a folder, and then write down the path to the unzipped files and the name of the .jad file.
6. Launch PhoneMe from your smartphone.
7. Inside PhoneMe, write to the main window the path and the name to the .jad file, above mentioned. Will look something like: file:///mnt/sd/download/BiblePhone.jad and then press enter.
8. The application will be installed, and next a hyperlink will be available below the above mentioned textbox. On this way you can install as many of MIDP application you like on your Android Phone.
How to install the application in Java Mobile enabled phones
It is possible now to have the Holy Scriptures on your mobile phone and to read
it wherever you are due to the Mobile Information Device Profile (MIDP)
technology in 1.0 and 2.0 versions, developed for Java applications.
A good advice is to try in the beginning the MIDP 1.0 / 128 Kbytes version, and
progressively to advance to MIDP 2.0 and larger volumes (512 Kbytes or more).
The application is available for MIDP 2.0, MIDP 1.0. You have only to select one
table on the field MIDP2.0 or MIDP1.0, according to the desired Bible version.
Then, you shall make a click on the JAR (Java Archive) file in order to obtain
the software to be installed on your mobile phone.
I recommend you to start with STARTER(MIDP1.0old) edition, then to continue with
INTERMEDIATE(MIDP1.0), and in the end, if the mobile phone supports this thing,
to try to install the ADVANCED (MIDP2.0) edition. Also, start with 128 kbytes
volumes, continue with 512 kbytes, and at the end try the version in one file.
There are cases where the mobile phone requires so called JAD (Java Descriptor)
files. These JAD files has to be
uploaded, on this case, together with the desired JAR files(s).
There are different methods to download the applications in your mobile phone as
follows:
1. Directly from Internet by using a WAP or GPRS connection
2. By using the infrared port of the mobile phone
3. By wireless Bluetooth access to the mobile phone
4. By cable link between PC ad mobile phone
5. If none from the above cases are valid
Next, we shall examine each case in order to have a successfully installation of
the software.
1. Directly from Internet by using a WAP or GPRS connection
If your have Internet access on your mobile phone (e.g. WAP or GPRS), it is
enough to access
https://biblephone.intercer.net/wap/ from the browser of the mobile phone,
and to access the desired Bible version, and then to make an option about
MIDP1.0 or MIDP2.0, and finally to select the desired module (e.g. one or more).
After the last selection, the desired version will be downloaded on your mobile
phone.
Many phones have only this option for installing JAVA appplications.
2. By using the infrared port of the mobile phone
Sometimes there is a need for a special uploader software for specific mobile
phones.
If you don't have access to Internet directly from your mobile phone, then you
shall have to pass to this step requiring to have infrared ports on your mobile
phone and on the computer.
a. On this case, you will download the application by using the computer from
the Internet (i.e. JAR files).
b. Once the application is downloaded (preferable on the desktop) you will have
to activate the infrared port on the mobile phone and align it with the infrared
port of the computer (preferable laptop).
c. Then a window will appear asking what file you want to send to the mobile
phone. Next, you will select the downloaded JAR file, and after OK, the mobile
phone will ask you if you want to load that file. You say YES and the
application will be downloaded on your mobile phone.
d. Probably, you will be asked by the mobile phone where you want to save it (e.g.
on the games or applications directories). After you made this selection, the
file will be ready to be loaded for run.
The displaying preference can be set inside the application in order to have
larger fonts, full screen display etc.
3. By wireless Bluetooth access to the mobile phone
Sometimes there is a need for a special uploader software for specific mobile
phones.
This situation is similar with the infrared case. You have only to activate
Bluetooth access on your mobile phone (check if exists) and on the computer (check
if exists).
4. By cable link between PC ad mobile phone
Sometimes there is a need for a special uploader software for specific
mobile phones.
On this case the steps are as follows:
a. On this case, you will download the application by using the computer from
the Internet (i.e. JAR files).
b. Once the application is downloaded (preferable on the desktop) you will have
to set up the wired connection between the mobile phone and the computer. Next,
you will start the synchronization / data transfer application and download the
JAR file in your mobile phone. Surely, you will have to consult the CD of your
mobile phone.
c. By this application you shall transfer into your mobile phone the JAR file in
the games or applications directories. Next, you will have to select for run the
JAR desired file.
5. If none from the above cases are valid
On this unhappy case, I recommend you to find a friend with a laptop having
infrared / Bluetooth capabilities, or to buy a data link cable, or to change
your current model of mobile phone.
Unfortunately, some models of mobile phones require only WAP/GPRS in order to
download and run Java applications.
Sometimes there is a need for a special uploader software for specific mobile
phones. Therefore check the documentation of them and also the page for specific
models.
Why so many versions? Simple, because not all the mobile phones support the
Bible in one file with MIDP 2.0 (the most advanced for the time being).
