Printable ModeLuca 8:2
|
8:2 si mai erau si niste femei, care fusesera tamaduite de duhuri rele si de boli; Maria, zisa Magdalena, din care iesisera sapte draci, Niste femei. Una din caracteristicile Evangheliei lui Luca este frecventa ei referire la lucrarea lui Hristos pentru femeile din Palestina si lucrarea unora dintre ele pentru El. Aceasta era ceva nou, deoarece rolul femeilor iudaice in viata publica fusese relativ minor, desi in cazuri izolate, profeti ca Elisei ajutasera femeile si fusesera ajutati de ele. Luca este unicul scriitor de evanghelie care raporteaza multe din detaliile vietii timpurii ale lui Isus si face lucrul acesta adesea din punctul de vedere al femeilor cel mai mult interesate – Maria, Elisabeta si Ana. In alte relatari el aminteste si pe vaduva din Nain, femeia de la ospatul lui Simon, femeile numite aici, Marta si o anumita femeie schiloada, ca si fiica lui Iair si femeia bolnava vindecata cu aceeasi ocazie. In Fapte el aminteste de Safira, Priscila, Drusila, Berenice, Tabita, Roda, Lidia si un numar de alte femei. Este ca si cum Luca ar fi zis ca Evanghelia Imparatiei cerului era tot atat de mult pentru femei, ca si pentru barbati si ca partea lor in proclamarea ei era la fel de importanta ca aceea a barbatilor lor. In miscarile iudaice cu un caracter strict religios, ca aceea a Fariseilor, a Saducheilor si a altora, femeile par sa nu fi avut nici un rol. Ele nici nu au primit folos direct, nici nu l-au dat altora. Odata cu a doua calatorie galileana cuprinsul lucrarii lui Hristos s-a extins repede si grupul de barbati care-L insoteau acum sporise foarte mult in comparatie cu grupul care fusese in prima calatorie. Aceasta in mod inevitabil cerea o considerabila cheltuiala si munca pentru procurarea hranei, pastrarea imbracamintei in buna stare si curatenie, etc. Hristos nu a savarsit niciodata minuni in propriul Sau folos (vezi la Matei 4,6); ar fi fost contrar cu principiile Sale sa faca asa ceva. Cat privea nevoile lor materiale, El si ucenicii Sai erau intretinuti pe temeiul principiului ,,vrednic este lucratorul de hrana lui” (Matei 10,10). In plus, multimile care se ingramadeau in jurul lui Isus si a ucenicilor Sai, in cursul acestor luni de mare promisiune, aproape ca nu le lasa timp nici macar sa manance sau sa doarma (vezi Marcu 3,7-12.20). Uneori Mantuitorul gasea ca este necesar sa Se ascunda de multime (vezi Marcu 1,45; 4,36; 6,31) pentru a gasi cateva ore de odihna. Aceste imprejurari diferite cereau un prilej pentru femeile care ajunsesera sa creada in Hristos, ca sa-L ajute in lucrarea Lui. Fusesera tamaduite. Adica, inainte de a doua calatorie galileana. Duhuri rele. Cel putin Maria Magdalena si poate si altele, fusesera eliberate de demoni. Boli. [,,Slabiciuni”, KJV]. Gr. astheneiai, ,,slabiciuni”, ,,betesuguri”, ,,boli”. Maria, zisa Magdalena. Vezi nota aditionala la capitolul 7. Naratiunile sinoptice pomenesc intotdeauna pe Maria Magdalena mai intai cand numele ei este trecut impreuna cu numele altor femei (vezi Matei 27,56.61; 28,1; Marcu 15,40.47; 16,1; Luca 24,10). Aceasta marturiseste despre devotiunea ei arzatoare fata de Isus. Recunostinta ei era nu numai emotionala (vezi la Luca 7,38.44), dar si foarte practica. Maria aceasta este numita Magdalena pentru a o distinge de alte Marii, dintre care erau mai multe. Numele Maria apare adesea in NT. Este derivat de la numele ebraic tradus ,,Miriam” in VT (vezi la Matei 1,16). Denumirea Magdalena arata probabil ca Maria locuia in orasul Magdala (vezi la Matei 15,39) la data cand Hristos a gasit-o si a eliberat-o de sub puterea demonilor. |

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).
