Kuó ke fifili nai pe ko e hā ʻoku fokotuʻu ai ha tā-tongitongi ʻo Molonai ʻi ʻolunga ʻi hotau ngaahi temipale ʻe niʻihi?

Naʻe fakahoko ʻe ha kau talafekau fakalangi, kau ai ʻa Molonai, ha fatongia mahuʻinga ʻi hono Fakafoki Mai ʻo e ongoongoleleí ʻo fakafou ʻi he Palōfita ko Siosefa Sāmita. Naʻe fakamatala ʻa Sione ʻi he Fakahā 14 , ki he fatongia mahuʻinga ʻe fakahoko ʻe Molonai mo e kau ʻāngelo kehé ʻi he tokoni ke teuteuʻi ʻa e māmaní ki he liuaki mai ʻa e Fakamoʻuí.

Makehe meia Molonaí, ʻe lava foki ke fakafofongaʻi ʻe he ʻāngelo ʻoku lau ki ai ʻi he Fakahā 14:6 ʻa e kau talafekau fakalangi tokolahi naʻa nau tokoni ke fakafoki mai ʻa e ongoongolelei ʻo Sīsū Kalaisí.

Lau ʻa e Fakahā 14:7 , ʻo kumi e meʻa naʻe lea ʻaki ʻe he ʻāngeló.
ʻOku ʻuhinga ʻa e kupuʻi lea “kuo hokosia ʻa e feituʻu laʻā ʻo ʻene fakamāú” ki he taimi ʻe fakamaauʻi ai ʻe he Fakamoʻuí ʻa e kakai kotoa pē ʻo e māmaní. ʻE fakatou hoko ʻEne ngaahi fakamāú ʻi he Hāʻele ʻAnga Ua Maí (vakai, Malakai 3:1–5) pea ʻi he Fakamaau Fakaʻosí (vakai, 2 Nīfai 9:15). ʻI he tokoni ʻa e kau talafekau fakalangí, naʻe fakafoki mai ʻe Sīsū Kalaisi ʻEne ongoongoleleí ke tokoni ki hono teuteuʻi ʻo e māmaní ki Heʻene Hāʻele ʻAnga Ua Maí.
2. Tali e ongo fehuʻi ko ʻení ʻi hoʻo tohinoa akó:
