Ngubani uSanta Joseph?
USanta Joseph ungoyena mntu ubalulekileyo kubuKrestu kwaye waziwa ngokuba nguyise wasemhlabeni kaYesu Krestu kunye nomyeni weNtombikazi enguMariya, unina kaYesu. Nangona kunjalo, iingxelo zembali yobukho bakhe ziye zaphazanyiswa kwaye enye yeevangeli ezine ayikhankanyi ngobomi bakhe konke konke. Wayekhankanywa kwiincwadi zeVangeli zikaMateyu, uJohn, noLuka, kwaye ezi kuphela kwemithombo yolwazi ngobomi bukaYosefu. Kwathiwa uyinzala kaKumkani uDavide kwaye watshata noMariya emva kokuba ekhulelwe umntwana esenyulu. Emva kokuba etshatile uMary, wazi malunga nokukhulelwa kwakhe kwaye wayeceba ukumala ngokuthula. Nangona kunjalo, ngokweevangeli, ingelosi evela ezulwini yamxelela malunga nokuba ngumama wonyana kaThixo. Ukulandela oku, wagqiba kwelokuba asiqwalasele kwakhona isigqibo sakhe kwaye aphile noMariya. Ukusindisa usapho lwakhe kwingqumbo kaKumkani uHerode, uJoseph wahlala eNazarete. Iincwadi zeVangeli azithethi ngokufa kwakhe. Nangona kunjalo, kucingelwa ukuba wasweleka ngo-1 AD, phambi kokubethelelwa kukaYesu. Kwizithethe zamaKatolika nezamaProtestanti, uJoseph uthathwa njengengcwele yomxhasi.

Ityala lemifanekiso https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saint_Joseph Ngaphambili Okulandelayo Imvelaphi yeeVangeli Ukukhankanywa kukaSanta Joseph kufumaneka kuphela 'kwiiVangeli' ezintathu: 'iVangeli kaMateyu,' 'iVangeli kaLuka,' kunye 'neVangeli kaJohane.' Akukho nto ikhankanyiweyo kuye 'kwiVangeli kaMarko.' IVangeli likaYohane 'likhankanya kanye kuphela' kuYohane '6:42, apho akhankanywa njengoyise kaYesu. Ngokwe ‘Vangeli kaMateyu,’ elanda ngomnombo kaYesu kuKumkani uDavide, uJoseph wazalwa ngonyaka we-100 BC kwisixeko saseBhetelehem. Akukho nto ingako ithethwayo ngobomi bakhe ngaphambi komtshato wakhe kuMariya, umama kaYesu. Ngokweevangeli, uJoseph watshata neNtombikazi enguMariya ngaphambi kokuba afumanise ukuba ukhulelwe. Emva kokufumanisa malunga nemeko yakhe, wayenoloyiko ngobomi bukaMariya, njengokuba ngelo xesha, isohlwayo somfazi okhulelweyo engatshatanga yayikukufa. Esoyika ubomi bakhe, akazange aveze nantoni na malunga nokukhulelwa kwakhe. Nangona kunjalo, wayecebe ukumala emtshatweni ngasese. Kubhaliwe ukuba ingelosi yayize kuye yamxelela ukuba angawuqhawuli umtshato kuba wayethwele uMoya oyiNgcwele, unyana kaThixo, esibelekweni sakhe. UJoseph wayikholelwa le nto kwaye wayishiya injongo yokuqhawula umtshato. Kubhaliwe ukuba iingelosi zamtyelela uJoseph amatyeli aliqela, kwaye ngengcebiso yakhe, uJoseph wamthiya umntwana u-Yeshua. Umntwana wazalwa esempilweni. Igama lokuzalwa kwakhe lasasazeka ngokukhawuleza. Ngelixa uYosefu noMariya ngaphambili babehlala eNazarete, indawo awazalelwa kuyo uYesu ikhankanywa njengeBhetelehem. 'Incwadi kaLuka,' nangona kunjalo, ikhankanya ukuba ukusuka eNazarete ukuya eBhetelehem kwenziwa nguJoseph ngenxa yenkolelo yakhe yokuba iBhetelehem yayisiXeko sikaDavide, imvelaphi yosapho lukaJoseph. UYesu wazalelwa emkhumbini. Abelusi kunye nemagi, udidi lwababingeleli, bevela kwiindawo ezikude ukuza kubhiyozela ukuzalwa konyana kaThixo. Emva kokuzalwa kukaYesu, usapho lwabuyela eNazarete. Njengoko iindaba zokuzalwa kukaMesiya zazisasazeka, uKumkani uHerode waba nomsindo. Ukumkani uwathathe la marhe njengezinto ezinokuba yingozi kwitrone yakhe. Ingelosi yavela kwakhona yaza yaxelela uYosefu ukuba athathe usana lwakhe olusandul 'ukuzalwa kunye nenkosikazi yakhe baye eYiputa, kuba uKumkani uHerode wayengenabubele kakhulu. Ingelosi yamcela ukuba agcine usapho lwakhe apho kude kubhubhe uKumkani uHerode. Emva kokufa kukaHerode, uYosefu wamphepha unyana wokumkani, owayekhohlakele njengoyise, waza wahlala eNazarete eGalili. Esi sisihlandlo sokugqibela ukukhankanywa kukaYosefu ‘kwiVangeli kaMateyu.’ ‘IVangeli kaLuka,’ nangona kunjalo, ilibalisa eli bali ngendlela eneenkcukacha. Kukho umahluko omncinci kwiingxelo zeevangeli. Elinye ibali elikhankanyiweyo ‘kwiNcwadi kaLuka’ linxulumene noYesu oselula eneminyaka eli-12 ubudala. Ngokwibali, usapho lwaluya eYerusalem kuhambo lwabo lonyaka. Wakuba umthendeleko uphelile, uMariya noJosefu baphuma edolophini bengenaye uYesu, becinga ukuba ukwenye indawo yeqela. Bathe bakufumanisa ukuba akekho, bamfuna. Emva koko wafunyanwa etempileni. Abazali bakhe bafumanisa ukuba uYesu wayesele enze uluvo olomeleleyo kubafundisi nakubantu abaqhelekileyo ababelapho. Ngaphandle koko, akukho nanye kwiincwadi zevangeli ezithetha ngoYosefu. Qhubeka nokuFunda apha ngezantsi Eminye imithombo Zininzi izinto ezipeyintiweyo, izinto zakudala, kunye neentsomi ezingabhalwanga ezibonelela ngeenkcukacha ngobomi bukaYosefu ngaphambi nasemva kokuzalwa kukaYesu. Ngokutsho kwemifanekiso ethile yokuzalwa, uMtyholi walinga uYosefu ukuba amshiye uMariya xa uJoseph wafumanisa ukuba ukhulelwe. Ukuba izicwangciso zikaMtyholi beziphumelele, ngewayekhe waxulutywa ngamatye afe kwaye uYesu ngewayengazange abekho ngokomzimba wakhe. Kuye kwathiwa xa uJoseph wafumanisa malunga nokukhulelwa kukaMariya, wabetha ubuso bakhe ngomsindo kwaye wayebonakala ekhathazekile. Kukwathiwa uYosefu watyholwa ngesondo ngokungekho mthethweni noMariya kwaye wagxothelwa entlango ixesha elithile. Ngokwesiko lamaKatolika, kuye kwakho ukukhankanywa kukaYesu oselula osebenza noJoseph njengomchweli. Izazi ngembali kunye nabembi bezinto zakudala nabo bavumile ukuba ukuchwela yayingumsebenzi ophambili ngelo xesha. Abaphengululi abaliqela babona uYesu noYosefu njengabachweli, abawazi kakuhle umsebenzi wemithi, umsebenzi wamatye, nesinyithi. UYesu wafundiswa nguyise. Ngexesha lokufa kukaYosefu, noYesu wayengumchweli onobuchule. Ezinye iingxelo zaseMpuma zikwatsho ukuba uYosefu wayesele etshatile kwaye waba ngumhlolokazi kanye ngaphambi kokuba atshate noMariya. Wayeyaziwa ukuba wayenabantwana abaninzi. Nangona kunjalo, phantse zonke iingxelo zikhankanya ukuba uMariya wayeyintombi enyulu ubomi bakhe bonke kwaye akazange abelane ngesondo noJoseph. Ubungcwele kunye nokufa Ukufa kukaSanta Joseph akufumaneki nakweyiphi na incwadi yeVangeli okanye nakuwuphi na umthombo othembekileyo. Nangona kunjalo, kukholelwa ukuba wasweleka kwindawo ethile malunga ne-1 AD kwaye iiakhawunti ezininzi zikhankanya ukuba waphila iminyaka eli-111. Uqikelelo malunga nonyaka wokufa kwakhe lusekwe kwinto yokuba uYosefu akakhankanywa naphi na xa kubethelelwe ukubethelelwa kukaYesu. Kucingelwe ukuba wayesele efile ngelo xesha. Ngaphandle kwento yokuba uJoseph ebesoloko ethathwa njengongcwele kwizithethe zamaKatolika nezamaOthodoki, uJoseph akazange abhiyozelwe ngokwakhe kumazwe aseNtshona kude kube sisiqingatha sexesha eliphakathi. NgoDisemba 1870, uPopu Pius IX wabhengeza uJoseph njengoMxhasi weCawa leNdalo iphela. UJoseph uthathwa njengongcwele wabasebenzi, kunye neentsuku ezininzi zomthendeleko zinikezelwe kuye. Uyaziwa ngokuba ngumphathi wokugula kunye nokufa okuvuya. Ngomhla wamashumi amabini ananye ku-Matshi kubhiyozelwa njengoSuku lukaJoseph oNgcwele, kunye nemibhiyozo eliqela ihlelwe ngomhla ongcwele. Imbeko Iindawo ezininzi ziye zabizwa ngegama likaSanta Joseph. ISan Jose eCosta Rica naseSan Jose eCarlifonia zezona ndawo zidumileyo zibizwa ngaye. Iindawo ezininzi eFrance naseMelika zithiywe ngaye. Kukho amakhulu amabandla kwihlabathi lonke azinikele ku-Saint Joseph. ESan Jose, eCalifornia, kukho icawe yamaKhatholika egama lingu ‘The Cathedral Basilica of St. Joseph.’ Izikolo ezininzi nezibhedlele, nazo, zinikezelwe kwiSanta Joseph.
