|
5:1 Prorocii: Hagai, prorocul, si Zaharia, fiul lui Ido, au prorocit Iudeilor care erau in Iuda si la Ierusalim, in Numele Dumnezeului lui Israel. Proorocii. [Atunci proorocii, KJV]. Aceasta este prima mentionare a lucrarii profetilor printre iudei, dupa intoarcerea lor din exil. Se pare ca profetia nu si-a facut auzita vocea timp de aproape 16 ani, din "anul al treilea al lui Cir", cand Daniel a rostit ultima lui solie (Daniel 10,1). Acum ea a reaparut. Intrucat avem chiar scrierile celor doi profeti mentionati aici, Hagai si Zaharia, cunoastem foarte bine cum au contribuit ei prin incurajare si calauzire la reluarea lucrului la Templu. Este evident din cuvintele lor ca indelunga amanare a implinirii sperantelor lor arzatoare de rezidire a Templului avusese un efect nefavorabil asupra poporului. Deoarece staruintele lor evlavioase de a fi placuti lui Dumnezeu si de a reface Templul si serviciile lui au starnit impotrivire, ei au ingaduit ca entuziasmul lor sa se stinga. Dorinta egoista de a fi mangaiati a luat locul zelului pentru onoarea lui Dumnezeu. In loc sa pandeasca un prilej de a incepe din nou lucrul si de a se folosi de el, poporul a acceptat ideea amanarii zicand: "N-a venit inca vremea pentru zidirea din nou a Casei Domnului" (Hagai 1,2). Lasand deoparte ideea de a continua lucrul cu hotarare, ei si-au canalizat eforturile urmarind scopuri practice de a-si intemeia case confortabile (Hagai 1,4.9). Rezultatul acestei complaceri a constat din pedepse divine: recolte slabe, dificultati economice (Hagai 1,6.9-11) si o mare nesiguranta politica (Zaharia 1,12-2,9). Poporul n-a recunoscut in aceste starile semnele neplacerii lui Dumnezeu. De aceea, agenti omenesti au fost chemati de Dumnezeu ca sa arate poporului semnificatia imprejurarilor in care se gaseau si sa le inspire un nou zel. Hagai, proorocul. Despre el nu se stie, cu exceptia numelui si a lucrarii lui in decursul a foarte putine luni, in timpul acesta extrem de critic. Numele, care apare ocazional in istoria israelita timpurie, apare mult mai des in perioada de dupa exil. Unsprezece diferiti iudei mentionati in documente aramaice din secolul al V-lea de la Elefantina purtau numele acesta, care a fost gasit si in documente descoperite in urma sapaturilor in Palestina. Probabil ca numele era ajunsese sa fie preferat datorita faimei pe care o obtinuse profetul Hagai ca rezultat al succesului lucrarii lui. Zaharia, fiul lui Ido. Intrucat, in uzanta ebraica, cuvantul "fiu" este folosit si in sensul de nepot, nu este gresit a-l numi pe Zaharia fiul lui Ido, desi de fapt era nepotul lui (Zaharia 1,1; vezi la 1 Cronici 6, 13.14). Tatal lui Zaharia fie fusese mai putin important decat bunicul sau, fie murise de timpuriu, iar ca urmare Zaharia fusese probabil crescut in casa bunicului sau. Au proorocit. Profetia nu consta mai ales in a face preziceri, asa cum de obicei, dar necorespunzator este inteles cuvantul. Cele mai multe solii profetice au fost indemnuri sau invataturi. Cei care dadeau aceste solii erau numiti profeti datorita faptului ca vorbeau ca raspuns la indemnul lui Dumnezeu, si tot ceea ce rosteau ei ca rezultat al acestei iluminari divine era numit profetizare. |

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).
