Printable ModeLevitic 1:5
|
1:5 Sa junghie vitelul inaintea Domnului; si preotii, fiii lui Aaron, sa aduca sangele, si sa-l stropeasca de jur imprejur pe altarul de la usa cortului intalnirii. Sa junghie vitelul. Noi nu putem crede ca un om normal ar avea placere sa implante cutitul intr-o victima nevinovata, chiar daca acea victima ar fi doar un animal. Cu toate acestea, Dumnezeu cerea acest lucru aducatorului. In vremurile de mai tarziu, junghierea o faceau preotii, desi intentia de la inceput a lui Dumnezeu a fost ca pacatosul insusi sa faca lucrul acesta. Aceasta experienta trebuie sa fi fost pentru pacatos penibila si dureroasa, pentru ca el stia ca pacatul lui a facut sa fie necesara moartea. Ea il impresiona si il determina sa ia hotararea ,,sa nu mai pacatuiasca”. El vedea ,,pe viu” rezultatul pacatului. Acesta nu insemna numai moartea, ci moartea unui nevinovat. Ce alt rezultat putea sa aiba ceremonia aceasta, decat sa creeze in pacatos o ura fata de pacat si o solemna hotarare de a nu mai avea de a face cu el? Prima invatatura pe care Dumnezeu dorea s-o dea lui Israel prin sistemul jertfelor era ca pacatul inseamna moarte. Aceasta invatatura a fost imprimata repetat in inima lor. Pe parcursul intregului an, in fiecare dimineata si seara, era jertfit un miel pentru natiune. Zi dupa zi, oamenii aduceau jertfele lor pentru pacat si arderile de tot la sanctuar. In fiecare caz era junghiat un animal, iar sangele era dus in locul aratat. Pe fiecare ceremonie si pe fiecare slujire era imprimata invatatura: Pacat inseamna moarte. Invatatura aceasta este necesara tot atat de mult in vremea noastra, pe cat a fost si in zilele din vechime. Unii crestini iau pacatul prea usor. Ei il considera un aspect trecator al vietii, pe care omenirea il va depasi. Altii considera pacatul ca fiind regretabil dar inevitabil. Toti au avut nevoie sa li se imprime in minte cu putere invatatura ca pacatul inseamna moarte. Noul Testament declara in mod precis ca ,,plata pacatului este moartea” (Romani 6,23), dar multi nu reusesc sa inteleaga importanta acestei declaratii. O conceptie mai realista a pacatului si mortii, ca fiind inseparabil legate, ar ajuta mult la aprecierea si intelegerea Evangheliei. Pentru crestin aceasta contine invatatura importanta ca noi am fost vinovati, apoi o repulsie fata de pacat si, in cele din urma, o profunda recunostinta fata de Dumnezeu, deoarece prin moarte vine mantuirea. Hristos a murit pentru mine. Eu ar fi trebuit sa mor, pentru ca am pacatuit, si ,,plata pacatului este moartea”. Dar pentru mine a murit Hristos. El a mers la Calvar in locul meu! Ce masura potrivita de prevedere! Ce iubire minunata! Sangele sa-l stropeasca. Aducatorul de jertfa isi terminase lucrarea. El isi adusese jertfa, isi marturisise pacatul, si junghiase victima. Acum incepea slujba sangelui. In timp ce sangele tasnea, alaturi se afla un preot si-l strangea intr-un vas. Apoi stropea sangele de jur imprejur pe altarul arderii de tot. Cuvantul tradus aici ,,stropeasca”, inseamna literal ,,a imprastia”. Este folosit la imprastierea prafului (Iov 2,12), a carbunilor aprinsi (Ezechiel 10,2), a apei (Numeri 19,13), etc. Dupa Talmud, preotul oficiant stropea sangele spre altar in doua locuri, la colturile de nord-est si sud-vest, in asa fel incat acesta sa atinga toate cele patru parti ale altarului. Din motive sanitare, probabil ca acesta se facea pe partea dinauntrul altarului. Partea de sange nefolosit era varsat la piciorul altarului. Mai tarziu, la Templul din Ierusalim, surplusul de sange era dirijat cu ajutorul unui canal de scurgere din tigla, care il transporta in raul Chedron. Dumnezeu a cautat sa intipareasca in mintea celor din Israel gandul ca iertarea de pacat se poate obtine numai prin marturisire si slujirea sangelui. Ei trebuiau sa inteleaga pretul nemarginit de mare al iertarii. Iertarea este mai mult decat a trece cu vederea greselile. Pe Dumnezeu Il costa ceva pentru a fi in masura sa ierte, Il costa o viata, chiar viata Fiului Sau. Unora, moartea lui Hristos le apare ca nefiind necesara. Dumnezeu putea, sau trebuia, considera ei, sa ierte fara Golgota. Lor nu li se pare crucea ca o parte integranta si vitala a ispasirii. Ar fi bine daca crestinii ar contempla azi mai mult pretul mantuirii lor. Iertarea nu este o chestiune simpla. Prin sistemul ceremonial Dumnezeu i-a invatat pe cei din poporul Israel ca iertarea se putea obtine numai prin varsare de sange. Noi avem nevoie acum de aceasta invatatura. In sistemul jertfelor lui Israel trebuie sa fie aflate principiile fundamentale ale trairii sfinte. Vechiul Testament contine principii fundamentale. Cel care este intemeiat intru totul pe el va fi in stare sa ridice o zidire care nu va cadea cand vin ploile si sufla vanturile. El va fi ,,zidit pe temelia apostolilor si prorocilor, piatra din capul unghiului fiind Isus Hristos” (Efeseni 2,20). |

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).
