3:17 Si din ceruri s-a auzit un glas, care zicea: Acesta este Fiul Meu preaiubit, in care Imi gasesc placerea. Din ceruri s-a auzit un glas. In trei ocazii in cursul vietii lui Hristos glasul Tatalui s-a auzit din cer marturisind pentru Fiul Sau – la botezul Lui, la schimbarea la fata (Matei 17,5; 2 Petru 1,16-18) si cand a plecat din Templu pentru ultima oara (Ioan 12,28). Acesta este Fiul Meu prea iubit. Sau: ,,Acesta este Fiul Meu preaiubitul.” Se poate cita o slaba dovada (cf. p. 146) pentru exprimarea de ,,Tu esti” in loc de ,,Acesta este” (cf. Marcu 1,11; Luca 3,22). Afirmatia aceasta combina cuvintele si ideile din Psalmii 2,7 si Isaia 42,1. Potrivit cu Matei, Tatal, folosind se pare persoana a treia, S-a adresat lui Ioan si la cativa martori oculari (vezi la Matei 3,16) in timp ce potrivit cu Marcu si Luca, Tatal S-a adresat direct lui Isus (Marcu 1,11; Luca 3,22). Unii au vazut in diferenta aceasta o nepotrivire in raportul Evangheliei. Asupra acesteia si a altor nepotriviri aparente vezi note aditionale de la sfarsitul capitolului, nota 2. In care Imi gasesc placerea. [,,Intru care bine am voit”, G. Gal.]. Comparati cuvintele de la Isaia 42,1. NOTE ADITIONALE LA CAPITOLUL 3 NOTA 1 Conform celor spuse de Matei 3,4 si Marcu 1,6 dieta lui Ioan Botezatorul consta din ,,lacuste (gr. akrides, pluralul de la akris) si miere salbatica”. Nu stim daca scriitori Evangheliei intelegeau ca Ioan nu manca nimic altceva sau numai ca acestea constituiau articolele lui principale de dieta. De asemenea, este posibil ca ,,lacustele si mierea salbatica” sa fi fost considerate ca fiind dieta distinctiva a unui profet, tot asa cum ,,haina de par de camila si un brau de curea” il distingeau ca succesor al vechilor profeti (vezi DA 102). S-ar putea ca Ioan sa se fi hranit cu ,,lacuste si miere salbatica” numai atunci cand alte alimente nu erau la indemana. Iarasi, ,,lacustele si mierea salbatica” s-ar putea doar sa reprezinte diferitele articole de hrana ce se gaseau in pustie si exprima in felul acesta un fel oriental plastic de a scoate in evidenta viata lui singuratica si abstinenta, departe de locurile de intalnire ale oamenilor. Din pricina ca cuvantul din limba engleza ,,lacusta” insusi denota atat a) o insecta, cat si b) un anumit fel de pomi, in chip natural se naste intrebarea cu privire la ce constituia dieta lui Ioan impreuna cu mierea. In alta parte din Scriptura, precum si in literatura greaca contemporana, relativ la chestiunea aceasta, cuvantul akris se refera totdeauna la o insecta, lacusta. Faptul acesta de netagaduit a determinat pe cei mai multi comentatori sa traga azi concluzia ca in relatarea cu privire la Ioan Botezatorul este vorba de insecta aceasta. Este, de asemenea, o realitate ca lacusta a facut parte din dieta popoarelor din Orientul Mijlociu din antichitate. Potrivit cu legea lui Moise, anumite feluri de lacuste constituie o hrana curata (Levitic 11,22) si deci ar fi putut fi permise in dieta unui iudeu. Faptele acestea au determinat pe comentatorii din vremea noastra ca in mod aproape uniform sa traga concluzia ca akris din Matei si Marcu ar trebui sa fie inteles ca desemneaza insecta cu numele ,,lacusta” si nu o specie de pom. Totusi, din vremuri crestine foarte timpurii a ajuns pana la noi o traditie raspandita, accentuata si staruitoare, in sensul ca, in Matei si Luca, cuvantul akris denota altceva decat o insecta. Au fost sugerate pasarele, crabi, languste, pere si alte fructe salbatice, turte de paine, roscove, etc. Diatesaronul lui Tatian (vezi p. 122) zice ,,lapte” in loc de ,,lacuste”. Mare parte din acestea sunt evident numai presupuneri, dar pentru una – roscova – pare sa fie o baza de dovada lingvistica si antropologica. Roscovul (Ceratonia siliqua) este cultivat extensiv in tarile din jurul Marii Mediteraneene si este obisnuit in Palestina, de la Hebron spre nord. Fructul, care se coace primavara tarziu, este in forma de teci late ca de fasole si atinge lungimea de sase pana la zece degete. Roscovele pot fi consumate crude, gatite sau macinate ca faina si apoi facute paine. Ele pot fi uscate si pastrate fara termen. Desi nu deosebit de gustoasa, roscova are o valoare nutritiva substantiala si de multa vreme a fost un articol de hrana de baza pentru clasele mai sarace din Orientul Apropiat. Tosephta (Ma’aseroth 2.19 [84]) inscrie roscovele in lista unor feluri de mancare si Misna (Ma’aseroth 1.3, ed. Soncino a Talmudului, p. 256) specifica faptul ca, fiind un aliment, ele trebuie sa fie zeciuite. Fiul ratacitor hranea porcii cu roscove (vezi la Luca 15,16). Intamplator, in limba engleza, roscovele sunt cunoscute sub numele de ,,locusts”, iar fructele acestea sunt numite popular ,,St.- John’s – bread” (Painea Sf. Ioan). Se spune ca negustorii de cereale englezi procura roscove ca hrana pentru vite sub numele de ,,locusts”. Dovezile tinzand sa favorizeze fructul roscovului ca ,,lacustele” pe care le consuma Botezatorul sunt dupa cum urmeaza: 1. Dovezile existente arata ca insecta lacusta este o sursa foarte saraca de hrana si ca ea singura nu ar fi in stare sa intretina viata omeneasca. Conform lucrarii lui Hasting Encyclopaedia of Religion and Ethics (art. ,,Locust”), ,,valoarea nutritiva a insectei lacusta este extrem de mica si este neindestulatoare, (chiar) cu mierea, sa intretina viata”. Faptul ca ,,lacustele” pe care le consuma Ioan par sa fi constituit un element major al dietei sale este impotriva insectei lacusta si tinde sa favorizeze fructul roscovului. Faptului acestuia al insuficientei insectelor lacusta ca hrana trebuie sa-i fie data o considerabila pondere in argumentatia ca vreun alt aliment decat insecta este indicat de cuvantul akris. Este un fapt interesant acela ca roscovele erau un aliment al celor mai saraci din diferite tari ale Orientului Apropiat si inca mai este. |

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).
