UGregory waseNyssa:
Ngubani na oya kundinika amaphiko ehobe? — watsho umdumisi uDavide ( INdumiso 54:7 ). Ndinesibindi sokuthetha okufanayo: ngubani na oya kundinika loo maphiko, ukuze ndiphakamise ingqondo yam ekuphakameni kwala mazwi, kwaye, ndiwushiye umhlaba, ndidlule emoyeni, ndifikelele ezinkwenkwezini kwaye ndibone bonke ubuhle bazo, kodwa ukumisa kwaye kubo, ngaphaya kwayo yonke into eshukumayo neguqukayo, ukufikelela kwindalo engaguqukiyo, amandla angashukumiyo, ukukhokela nokugcina konke okukhoyo; konke oko kuxhomekeke ekuthandeni okungenakuchazwa koBulumko bukaThixo. Ukufuduka ngokwasengqondweni kwinto eguquguqukayo negqwethekileyo, ndiya kuthi okokuqala ndikwazi ukumanyana ngokwasengqondweni naLowo ungaguqukiyo nongenakuguqulwa, kunye nelona gama lisondeleyo, ngokuthi: Bawo!”.
ISt. Cyprian yaseCarthage:
“Owu, ukuzithoba okungaka kuthi, okungako ukuncamisa kobabalo nobubele obuvela eNkosini, xa Esivumela, xa sisenza umthandazo phambi kobuso bukaThixo, ukuba sibize uThixo uYise, nokuzibiza ngokuba singabantwana bakaThixo, ubulungisa. njengokuba uKristu enguNyana kaThixo! Akukho namnye kuthi obenobuganga bokusebenzisa elo gama emthandazweni ukuba Yena ngokwakhe ebengasivumelanga ukuba sithandaze ngale ndlela.
UCyril oNgcwele waseYerusalem:
“Emthandazweni awasifundisa wona uMsindisi ngabafundi Bakhe, sibiza uThixo uBawo ngesazela esicocekileyo, sisithi: “Bawo wethu!”. Hayi indlela ubukhulu bobuntu bukaThixo! Abo bathe bawa kuye baza bafikelela kumda ogqithileyo ebubini banikwa umthendeleko ngobabalo kangangokuba bambiza ngokuba nguBawo: Bawo wethu!”.
John Chrysostom:
“Bawo wethu! Owu, olunjani lona ububele obumangalisayo! Elinjani lona ilungelo! Ngawaphi amazwi endiya kubulela ngawo kuMthumeli wezi mpahla? Yabona, zintanda, ukungabi nto kwemvelo yakho kunye neyam, jonga kwimvelaphi yayo - kulo mhlaba, uthuli, udaka, udongwe, uthuthu, kuba sidalwe emhlabeni kwaye ekugqibeleni sibolile emhlabeni. Kwaye xa ucinga oku, umangaliswe bubutyebi obungenakuqondwa bokulunga okukhulu kukaThixo kuthi, eniyalelwe ukuba nimbize ngokuba nguYise, wasemhlabeni, ongowaseZulwini, onokufa, ongenakonakala, ongenakonakala, ongonakaliyo, ongowexeshana – Ongunaphakade, izolo nangaphambili, iminyaka ekhoyo. eyadlulayo'.
Augustine:
“Kuso sonke isibongozo, kuqala kufunwa ububele bomfaki-sicelo, kuze emva koko kuchazwe eyona nto iphambili yesi sibongozo. Ubabalo ludla ngokucelwa ngokudumisa lowo lucelwe kuye, oluthi lubekwe ekuqaleni kwesicelo. Ngale ndlela, iNkosi ikwasiyalele ekuqaleni komthandazo ukuba sidanduluke sithi: “Bawo wethu!”. EZibhalweni kukho amabinzana amaninzi ekuthethwa ngawo indumiso kaThixo, kodwa asifumani myalelo kaSirayeli ofanele abizwe ngokuba “nguBawo wethu!”. Eneneni, abaprofeti bambiza uThixo ngokuthi nguYise wamaSirayeli, ngokomzekelo: “Ndakhulisa ndaza ndakhulisa oonyana, kodwa bona bandivukela.” ( Isa. 1:2 ); Ukuba ndinguyihlo, kuphi na ukubekwa kwam? ( Mal. 1:6 ). Abaprofeti bambiza ngolo hlobo uThixo, ngokucacileyo ukuze babhence amaSirayeli ukuba ayengafuni ukuba ngoonyana bakaThixo ngenxa yokuba enze izono. Abaprofeti nabo abazange babe nabuganga bakubiza uThixo njengoBawo, ekubeni babesekwisigxina samakhoboka, nangona babemiselwe ukuba babe ngoonyana, njengoko umpostile esitsho: “Indlalifa, iselula, ayihlulwanga nganto nganto. ikhoboka” ( Gal. 4:1 ). Eli lungelo linikwe uSirayeli omtsha - kumaKristu; bamiselwe ukuba ngabantwana bakaThixo ( Yoh. 1:12 ) yaye bamkele umoya wobunyana, kungoko bedanduluka besithi: Abha, Bawo! ( Roma 8:15 )”.
Tertullian:
“INkosi isoloko isithi uThixo nguBawo wethu, yade yasiyalela ukuba singabizi nabani na emhlabeni ngoBawo ngaphandle kwaLowo sinaye emazulwini (cf. Mat. 23:9). Ngoko ke, ngokuthetha la mazwi emthandazweni, sizalisekisa umyalelo. Banoyolo abo bamaziyo uThixo uYise. Igama likaThixo uYise alizange lityhilwe nakubani na ngaphambili - kwanalowo wayebuza uMoses waxelelwa elinye igama likaThixo, ngelixa lityhilwe kuthi ngoNyana. Kwa igama elithi Nyana sele likhokelela kwigama elitsha likaThixo-igama elithi Bawo. Kodwa wathetha ngokuthe ngqo wathi: “Mna ndize egameni likaBawo” ( Yohane 5:43 ), waphinda wathi: “Bawo, lizukise igama lakho” ( Yohane 12:28 ), yaye ngokucacileyo ngakumbi: “Ndilityhilile. Igama lakho ebantwini” (Yohane 17:6)”.
UJohn Cassian waseRoma:
“UMthandazo weNkosi ufuneka emntwini othandaza ngeyona meko iphakamileyo negqibeleleyo, ebonakaliswa ekucamngceni ngoMnye uThixo nothando olungazenzisiyo Ngaye, nalapho ingqondo yethu, iphunyezwe luthando, incokola noThixo owona mthendeleko usondeleyo nangokunyaniseka okukhethekileyo, njengakuYise. Amazwi alo mthandazo acebisa ukuba sifanele sikulangazelele ngenkuthalo ukufikelela kwimeko enjalo. “Bawo wethu!” – ukuba ngolo hlobo uThixo, iNkosi yendalo iphela, ngomlomo wakhe uvuma uYise, kwangaxeshanye ukwavuma oku kulandelayo: ukuba sikhuliswe ngokupheleleyo kubukhoboka sasiwa kwimo yabantwana abamkelekileyo. kaThixo.
Theophylact, ubhishophu omkhulu. Bulgarian:
“Abafundi bakaKristu bakhuphisana nabafundi bakaYohane kwaye bafuna ukufunda indlela yokuthandaza. UMsindisi akawugatyi umnqweno wabo kwaye ubafundise ukuthandaza. Bawo wethu osezulwini - qaphela amandla omthandazo! Ikuphakamisela ngoko nangoko phezulu, kwaye njengokuba ubiza uThixo ngokuthi nguBawo, uziqinisekisa ukuba wenze yonke imizamo ukuba ungaphulukani nokufana noYise, kodwa ufane naye. Igama elithi “Bawo” likubonisa ukuba uzukiswe ngantoni na ngokuba ngunyana kaThixo.
USimeyon waseThessaloniki:
“Bawo wethu! – Kuba unguMdali wethu, owasikhuphayo ekubeni singabikho, nangenxa yokuba ngobabalo unguBawo wethu ngoNyana, ngendalo wafana nathi”.
eSt. Tikhon Zadonsky:
“Ngokusuka kumazwi athi “Bawo Wethu!” sifunda ukuba uThixo unguYise wokwenyaniso wamaKristu kwaye “bangoonyana bakaThixo ngalo ukholo kuKristu Yesu” ( Gal. 3:26 ). Ke ngoko, njengoBawo wethu, sifanele simbize ngokuzithemba, njengoko abantwana babazali benyama bebabiza kwaye solulele izandla zabo kubo kuyo yonke imfuno.”
