Wayengubani uChristopher Ongcwele?
UChristopher u-Saint, umxhasi wesanta wabahambi, wayengumntu ongumKristu wenkulungwane yesithathu okanye yesine owaba ngumfeli-nkolo emva kokufa kwakhe ngexesha lolawulo luka-Emperor waseRoma u-Decius okanye ngenye indlela ngexesha lolawulo luka-Emperor Maximinus II Dacian. Isiphithiphithi sivela ngenxa yokufana phakathi kwamagama ookumkani ababini. Nangona kunjalo, ukuhlonitshwa kukaSanta Christopher kwaqala ukwenzeka emva kwexesha lenkcubeko yobuKrestu kwaye akuzange kujike kube sisenzo esiqhelekileyo kwiCawa yaseNtshona kude kube liXesha eliPhakathi. Ngaphandle koku, ukusukela kwinkulungwane ye-7, amaKristu abiza iicawa kunye neemonki ngegama lakhe. Amabali ngaye alandelwa emva kwinkulungwane yesithandathu yeGrisi. Ngenkulungwane yesithoba, babesele besiya eFrance. Olona hlobo ludumileyo lobomi bakhe kunye nokufa kwakhe lwavela kwinkulungwane ye-13 i-'Golden Legend. 'Ngokwamabali aziwayo ngaye, wayengumKanan ogama linguReprobus, owayemde kakhulu (ziikubhite ezintlanu okanye zii-7.5 iinyawo okanye i-2.3 m) kwaye wayenobuso oboyikekayo. Wathatha umntwana, owathi kamva waba nguKrestu, wawela umlambo. Ngaphandle kokuba yingcwele yabahambi, uye wanconywa njengongcwele weendawo ezinjengeBaden, eJamani; IBarga, eItali; kunye neTivim, Goa, India.

Ityala lemifanekiso https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Bosch65.jpg (IiAlekjds / iDomain) Ngaphambili Okulandelayo Iintsomi malunga noChristopher Ongcwele KwakuseGrisi ngenkulungwane yesithandathu apho amabali obomi nokufa kwakhe aqala khona ukubakho. Ngenkulungwane yesithoba, babesaziwa ngabantu baseFrance. Ubhishophu wenkulungwane ye-11 nembongi uWalter of Speyer wabhala enye ingxelo. Nangona kunjalo, amabali awaziwa kakhulu ngaye avela kwi-13th century 'Golden Legend'. Amabali amaninzi ayavuma ukuba wayengumKanan omde nowoyikekayo ogama linguReprobus. Wayesebenzela ukumkani waseKanana xa wagqiba kwelokuba abe kwinkonzo yokumkani omkhulu kunabo bonke abakhe bakho. Watyelela inkosi apho wonke umntu wayekholelwa ukuba ungoyena mkhulu, kodwa ngenye imini wazibonela lo kumkani esenza umnqamlezo emva kokuba umntu othile ethethile ngoMtyholi. Waqonda ukuba inkosi iyamoyika uMtyholi. Wadibana neqela labaphangi, elinye lawo lazibhengeza njengoMtyholi. UReprobus emva koko waqala inkonzo yakhe phantsi kwakhe. Ngenye imini, wayekunye nenkosi yakhe entsha xa abaphangi badlula ecaleni komnqamlezo. Wafumanisa ukuba noMtyholi wayemoyika uKristu. Ukushiya loo mntu, uReprobus waqala ukufuna uKristu. Ngexesha lokukhangela kwakhe, wadibana nendoda eyayihlala yodwa, eyayisebenza njengesikhokelo kunye notitshala kwinkolo yobuKristu. Xa wayecela ukuba yena yedwa amxelele ukuba angamsebenzela njani uKristu, wacetyiswa ukuba azile kwaye athandaze. UChristopher uphendule wathi ngekhe ayenze lonto. Ngenxa yoko, lo mntu wayehlala yedwa wamxelela ukuba ngobukhulu nangokomelela kwakhe, angakhonza uKrestu ngokunceda abantu ukuba bawele umlambo oxokozelayo, apho abantu abaninzi babesweleka bezama. Uzalelwe yedwa ukuba inkonzo yakhe izakumonwabisa uKristu. UChristopher waqala ngokunceda abantu ukuba bawele umlambo. Ngenye imini, umntwana omncinci weza kuye wacela uncedo lwakhe ukuwela umlambo. Ngelixa bewela, kwathi ngequbuliso amanzi amaninzi emlanjeni kwaye umntwana waziva enzima ngendlela emangalisayo kuChristopher. Emva komgudu omkhulu, waya kwelinye icala. Waxelela umntwana ukuba ubomi bakhe babusemngciphekweni omkhulu njengoko wayeziva ukuba wayethwele ubunzima behlabathi lonke. Umntwana uzibonakalisile ukuba unguKrestu, esithi awunayo yonke into emagxeni akho kodwa nanguLowo wayenzayo. NdinguKumkani wakho, okhonza kulo msebenzi. Umntwana emva koko wanyamalala. Ngexesha elithile emva koku, waya eLcia, apho wathetha amazwi athuthuzelayo kumaKristu xa babebulawa. Xa wasiwa kukumkani wasekuhlaleni, akavuma umyalelo kakumkani wokuba abingelele kwizithixo zobuhedeni. Ukumkani wazama ukumqinisekisa ngobutyebi. Uye wayalela amabhinqa amabini ukuba amlukuhle. UChristopher waqinisekisa abafazi ukuba baguqukele ebuKristwini kunye namanye amawaka esixekweni. Ukumkani uxelele amadoda akhe ukuba abulale uChristopher. Emva kweenzame ezininzi ezingaphumelelanga, wahlulwa. Qhubeka nokuFunda apha ngezantsi Umphathi wabaNgcwele babahambi UChristopher waseLcia wahlonitshwa ngoSuku loMthendeleko ngomhla we-9 kuMeyi yi-Eastern Orthodox Church. Ukufundwa kwamaculo kunye neengoma zijikeleza ekubanjweni kwakhe nguDecius owazama ukukholisa uChristopher ngamahenyukazi ngaphambi kokuyalela ukuba abulawe. I-Roman Martyrology imnqula nge-25 kaJulayi. Ikhalenda yeTridentine yamkhumbula kwangolo suku lunye kodwa kwimimandla yabucala. Nangona kunjalo, bonke abantu babeqale ukumbhiyozela ngo-1954. Oko kwaqhubeka de kwaba li-1970 xa isikhumbuzo sayeka ngenxa yohlengahlengiso ngokubanzi lwekhalenda yesiko lamaRoma njengoko kwakumiselwe yi-motu proprio, Mysterii Paschalis. Ukuhlonelwa kwakhe bekukholelwa ukuba ayiyonxalenye yesiko lamaRoma, njengoko yayihlanganiswe kwikhalenda yaseRoma kade (malunga ne-1550) kwaye yayinomda omncinci. Nangona kunjalo, umthendeleko ubanjelwa ekuhlaleni nanamhlanje. Isityholo esenziwe ngegolide, esigcinwe kwiMyuziyam yobuGcisa obuNgcwele kwiCawa iSaint Justine's (iSveti Justina) eRab, eCroatia, kukholelwa ukuba sinekhakhayi likaSanta Christopher. Isiko lecawa lithi ubishophu wabonisa izinto ezingcwele ukusuka kudonga lwesixeko ngo-1075 ukuphelisa ukungqingwa ngumkhosi wase-Italo-Norman. Abahambi bahlala benxiba amakhonkco anegama lakhe okanye umfanekiso kubo. Kukho ibinzana lesiFrentshi kwezi zinto zihonjisiweyo, Jonga uSt Christophe et va-t-en-rassuré (Jonga eSt Christopher kwaye uqhubeke nokuqinisekiswa, ikwaguqulelwa njengo-Bona uSt Christopher kwaye uhambe ngendlela yakho ukhuselekile). Abantu baziwa ngokugcina imifanekiso yakhe emincinci kwiimoto zabo. NgesiSpanish, iimedali zakhe kunye namakhadi angcwele aphethe ibinzana elithi Si en San Cristóbal confías, de accidente no morirás (Ukuba uyamthemba uSt. Christopher, awuyi kufa ngengozi). Ukuba yingcwele eyaziwayo, uChristopher uhlonitshwa ngabantu abahlukeneyo, kubandakanya iimbaleki, oomatiloshe, oomatiloshe kunye nabahambi. Uthathwa njengomnye wabaNcedisi abangcwele abalishumi elinesine. Ungumxhasi wezinto ezahlukeneyo ezinxulumene nokuhamba kwaye ukhusela abahambi ngokuchasene nombane kunye nendyikitya yokufa. Imizobo yobugcisa Njengoko u-Saint Christopher alinda abahambi ngokuchasene nokufa ngesiquphe, ukuboniswa kwakhe kwabekwa malunga nomnyango osemazantsi wamabandla aliqela, ukuze babonakale ngokulula. Uninzi lwale mizobo umbonisa njengendoda enkulu ethwele umntwana egxalabeni kunye nabasebenzi ngesandla esinye. Imizobo emininzi yodonga lukaSanta Christopher ikhona eNgilane kunayo nayiphi na ingcwele. Eminye yemifanekiso yakhe kwi-Iconographies yaseMpuma naseNtshona ibonisa ukuba inenja yenja. Ezi zinto zimelweyo zabuyela emva kulawulo luka-Emperor Diocletian. Ngexesha lokulwa nezizwe ezihlala kwintshona ye-Egypt eCyrenaica, indoda, egama lingu-Reprebus, Rebrebus okanye Reprobus, yathinjwa. Kwathiwa sisigantsontso sendoda, inentloko yenja. Ukumelwa kwe-Byzantine ka-Saint Christopher njengendoda enentloko yenja yavela kwimpazamo yabo yokufunda igama lesiLatin elithi Cananeus (waseKanan) njengo canineus (canine). Ngo-1609, amadoda kaNkosi Cholmeley adlala umdlalo weqonga ‘uChristopher Ongcwele’ eYorkshire. Oku kukhokelele ekutshutshisweni kweqela kwiNkundla yeStar Chamber. Umbhali ongumPhuthukezi uJosé Maria de Eça de Queiró wabhala i-novella 'Saint Christopher', eyakhutshwa ngo-1912 emva kokuba efile. Kwifilimu ka-2003 'Seabiscuit', iJockey Red (uTobey Maguire) wanikwa i-Saint Christopher pendant nguMarcela (Elizabeth Banks ) kwiiyure ezikhokelela kumdyarho wokugqibela wehashe eSanta Anita ngethamsanqa.
