Nov 13 – NADI JABBOK!

Genesis 32:22 “aru jacobe uthishe utu rati aru loishe tai laga duita maiki, tai laga duita maiki naukar khan aru tai laga igharota chokra khan ke aru paar korishe pani Jabbok laga”.

Nadi jabbok tu ekta ase bishi nadi khan laga majete juntu Genesis laga kitab te koi kene ase. Itu shabhd ‘jabbok’ mane jhap mara. Jacob laga lorai Isor logote ekta dikhibole para ghatna thakishe juntu hoishe nadi jabbok te. Jitya Tai paar korishe nadi ke tai ekla thakishe, ekta manu lorai korishe tai logote din nabhanga tok.

Jacob bi lagi thakishe. jitya tai Jacob ke jitibole paranai utu manu koishe; “jabole dibi amike, kiel koile din bhangi ase”. Hoilebi Jacob koishe:; “ami apuni ke jabole nadibo apuni ami ke ashirbaad dibole!” aru inika hi Jacob pai bhorta ashirbaad tate. Apuni bi jhuji bo lage  ashirbaad pabole Isor pora Tai laga kosom khan ke pabole. Pobitro kotha koi rajyo swarg laga dukh pai ghrina khan ke aru ghrina loi joldh pora.

Ekta boini thakishe jun laga suku nazar giribole shuru hoi aru pura nazar ke harai loi, utu olop homoi te. Tai itu ke bordasht koribole paranai itu durgati te. Toh tai ghutna teki kene prathana kore Isor ke wapas nazar ke. Tai upwas rakhe aru lagi tahke Isor logote bishi pora bishi. Aru ses te, Iosr hune tai laga prathana khan ke aru pai tai laga suku laga nazar ke wapas.

Kilekoile Jacob jhujhe Isor logote, Tai ashirbaad diye Jacob ke aru koi: “apuni laga naam ke aru Jacob namatibo, hoilebi Israel; kilekoile apuni jhuji she isor logote aru manu logote, aru itu ke paishe” (genesis 32:28).

Jacob ke hosabi thogai diya mate. Jitya tai Isor logote lage, tai laga naam aru adot khan bodli hoishe  aru dishe notun naam: ‘israel’. Itu naam Israel mane rajkumar Isor laga. Jacob pahoranai ki itu thik ghatna jabbok laga kinarte. Toh, tai mate naam utu jaga ke ‘Penial’ nahoile ‘chehra Isor laga’. Chehra Iosr laga rukhe tai khan karone jun jhujhe tai  logote; itu penial ashirbaad laga juntu bonai sob notun.

Pobitro kotha te amikhan pai ki nadi jabbok bonai ekta himina nishina bishi desh khan te. Israelites khan loi hakh mati laga jabbok tok (numbers 21:24 aru judges 11:13). Utu hi mati ase Isor laga aru mati ashirbaad diya Isor laga. Isor laga bacah khan, apuni khan rukhi thakibo nalage alag kinarte jabbok hoilebi paar hobo lage Isor laga maujudgi te. Itu  hi jote  sob uttam khan aru swarg laga  ashirbaad khan Iosr laga, rukhi ase apuni ke.

Aji bhabna koribole laga pobitro  kotha tu hoile  Isaiah 33:21 “hoiebi tate achurit Isor thakibo ami khan karone ekta jaga chaura nadi laga, jote iku nau khan par nahoi nahoilebi jahaz khan paar nakore.”
