Printable Mode1 Corinteni 13:1
|
13:1 Chiar daca as vorbi in limbi omenesti si ingeresti, si n-as avea dragoste, sunt o arama sunatoare sau un chimval zanganitor. Chiar daca. Pavel a enumerat si a definit locul darurilor duhului in biserica (cap. 12). Acum purcede sa arate ca posedarea tuturor acestor daruri si a altor calitati in plus, nu face pe cineva crestin daca nu poseda darul suprem al iubirii. Acest frumos poem in proza a fost numit ,,lucrul cel mai mare, cel mai tare, cel mai adanc pe care Pavel l-a scris vreodata” (Harnack). Natura, valoarea si durata vesnica a iubirii in comparatie cu darurile temporare, sunt prezentate aici. Capitolul acesta continua discutia subiectului introdus in cap. 12, si anume, darurile spirituale. Pavel a notat faptul ca diferitele inzestrari spirituale au fost conferite in asa fel incat sa faca sa inainteze cladirea si binele bisericii (vezi cap. 12:4-28). Acum el arata ca posedarea darurilor mentionate acolo, oricat de buna ar fi, poate fi intrecuta de o inzestrare care e mai de valoare decat orice e descris mai inainte, si ca darul acesta este la indemana tuturor (cf. Gal 5:22). Limbi omenesti. Aceasta poate fi o referire la puterea de exprimare care se gaseste la cei mai calificati si mai talentati oratori dintre oameni, sau la limbile diferite folosite de natiunile pamantului. Daca oratorul e lipsit de iubire, una din caracteristicile fundamentale ale lui Dumnezeu, elocventa lui superioara sau indemanarea lui in folosire limbilor e tot atat de fara valoare pentru promovarea imparatiei lui Dumnezeu ca si zgomotele fara inteles al oricarui instrument de arama rasunator sau al chimvalului zadarnic zanganitor (vezi 1Ioan 4:8; DA 22, GC 487, 493). Ingeresti. Prin aceasta Pavel se poate sa se fi referit fie la darul limbilor atat de mult pretuit la Corint (vezi cap. 14), fie la vorbirea distinsa a ingerilor. Totusi, manifestarea foarte spectaculoasa a limbilor sau chiar si capacitatea de a vorbi cu limba angelica nu confera nici o onoare celui care il primeste, sau nu-i e de nici un folos daca nu e insotita de iubire. Apostolul intentiona sa corecteze gresita evaluare pe care corintenii o dadeau darului limbilor si de a-i stimula sa umble dupa iubire ca fiind inzestrarea cea mai de pret. Dragoste. [,,Caritate”, KJV]. Gr. agape, ,,iubire”, cel mai inalt tip de iubire, care recunoaste ceva de valoare in persoana sau obiectul care este iubit; iubire care se intemeiaza pe principiu, nu pe emotie; iubire care se dezvolta din respectul pentru admirabilele calitati ale obiectului ei. Iubirea aceasta este aceea care este vazuta intre Tatal si Isus (vezi Ioan 15:10; 17:26); e iubirea rascumparatoare a Dumnezeirii pentru omenirea pierduta (vezi Ioan 15:9; 1Ioan 3:1; 4:9, 16); este calitatea speciala demonstrata in procedeele crestinilor unul cu altul (vezi Ioan 13:34, 35; 15:12–14); e folosita pentru a arata legatura credinciosului cu Dumnezeu (vezi 1Ioan 2:5; 4:12; 5:3). Vezi Nota Aditionala la Psa 36; vezi Mat 5:43, 44. Cuvantul ,,caritate” nu e destul de cuprinzator pentru a arata marea intindere a interesului pentru binele altora care e cuprinsa in cuvantul agape. Intr-adevar, ,,caritate” poate da o idee foarte restransa de ajutor de binefacere. Cuvantul ,,iubire” e mai bun, dar aceasta trebuie sa fie inteleasa in lumina a tot ce se spune in acest capitol cu privire la ea. Aceasta ,,iubire” (agape) nu trebuie sa fie confundata cu ceea ce este uneori numita iubire, o calitate alcatuita in cea mai mare parte din sentiment si emotie care are centrul in eu si dorintele eului. Agape isi concentreaza interesul si preocuparea spre altii si conduce la actiune corespunzatoare. Biserica corinteana fusese foarte mult tulburata de discordie interna care avusese ca rezultat dezbinari si partide (vezi cap. 1:11, 12). Unii se faleau cu calificatiile si darurile lor superioare (vezi cap. 3:3–5, 8, 18, 19, 21; 4:6, 7). Capitolul acesta arata ca posedarea de diferite daruri ale Duhului nu ajuta la nimic daca persoana este lipsita de iubire. Arama. [,,Alama”, KJV]. Gr. kalcos, ,,alama”, sau orice obiect facut din alama. Aici, modificat de ,,sunatoare”, se refera probabil la un gong sau o trambita. Ideea este aceea a unui instrument rasunator, care face o galagie mare si da aparenta unei mari importante, dar e numai un emitator de sunete fara viata. Zanganitor. [,,Clinchenitor”, KJV; ,,Galagios”, G. Gal.]. Gr. alalazo, un cuvant onomatopeic, format la origine pentru a exprima strigatul scos de o armata cand se avanta in lupta. De la aceasta intrebuintare, a ajuns sa insemne facerea oricarei galagii puternice, ca de pilda un tipat sau un bocet de jale. Aici alalazo e folosit pentru a descrie sunetele monotone si zanganitoare ale unui chimval. |

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).
