ʻI he Tohi Tapú, ko e foʻi lea naʻe liliu ko e “toetuʻu” ʻoku haʻu ia mei he foʻi lea faka-Kalisi ko e a·naʹsta·sis, ʻa ia ʻoku ʻuhingá ko e “fokotuʻu hake” pe “toe tuʻu hake.” Ko ha tokotaha ʻoku toetuʻu, ʻoku fokotuʻu hake ia mei he maté pea fakafoki ki he moʻuí ʻo hangē pē ko ia ki muʻá.—1 Kolinitō 15:12, 13.
Neongo ko e foʻi lea “toetuʻu” ‘oku ‘ikai ke ‘i he Tohi Tapu Faka-Hepeluú, ʻa ia ʻoku faʻa ui ko e Fuakava Motuʻá, ka ʻoku hā ai ʻa e akonaki ko ení. Fakafou ʻi he palōfita ko Hōseá, ko e fakatātaá, naʻe talaʻofa ʻe he ʻOtuá: “Te u huhuʻi kinautolu mei he mālohi ʻo Faʻitoká; te u fakafoki mai kinautolu mei he maté.”—Hōsea 13:14; Siope 14:13-15; ʻAisea 26:19; Taniela 12:2, 13.
ʻE toetuʻu ʻa e kakaí ʻo moʻui ʻi fē? Ko e kakai ʻe niʻihi ʻe toetuʻu ke moʻui ʻi hēvani ʻo pule ko e ngaahi tuʻi mo Kalaisi. (2 Kolinitō 5:1; Fakahā 5:9, 10) ʻOku ui ia ʻi he Tohi Tapú ko e “ʻuluaki toetuʻú” ʻa ia ʻoku fakahaaʻi mai ai ʻoku ʻi ai mo ha toetuʻu ʻe hoko mai. (Fakahā 20:6) Ko e toetuʻu ko eni ki muí te nau moʻui ʻi he māmaní, ʻa ia ko e tokolahi taha ʻo e faʻahinga ʻe fakafoki mai ki he moʻuí te nau fiefia ai.—Saame 37:29.
ʻE anga-fēfē ʻa e toetuʻu e kakaí? ʻE ʻoange ʻe he ʻOtuá kia Sīsū ʻa e mālohi ke fokotuʻu hake ʻa e maté. (Sione 11:25) ʻE toe fakafoki ʻe Sīsū ki he moʻuí ʻa e “faʻahinga kotoa ʻi he ngaahi fonualoto fakamanatú”, ʻa e tokotaha taki taha mo hono fakaikiiki, ʻulungaanga mo e manatu. (Sione 5:28, 29) Ko kinautolu ʻe toetuʻu ki hēvaní te nau maʻu ʻa e sino laumālie, lolotonga ia ko kinautolu ʻe toetuʻu ke moʻui ʻi he māmaní te nau maʻu ha sino moʻui lelei fakaekakano.—ʻAisea 33:24; 35:5, 6; 1 Kolinitō 15:42-44, 50.
Ko hai ʻe toetuʻú? ʻOku pehē ʻi he Tohi Tapú “ʻe ʻi ai ʻa e toetuʻu fakatouʻosi ʻa e māʻoniʻoní mo e taʻemāʻoniʻoní.” (Ngāue 24:15) Ko e māʻoniʻoní ʻoku kau ai ʻa e faʻahinga anga-tonu, hangē ko Noa, Sela, mo ʻĒpalahame. (Sēnesi 6:9; Hepelū 11:11; Sēmisi 2:21) Ko e taʻemāʻoniʻoní ʻoku kau ai ʻa e faʻahinga naʻe ʻikai ke nau aʻusia ʻa e ngaahi tuʻunga ʻa e ʻOtuá pea naʻe ʻikai ke nau maʻu ha faingamālie ke ako mo muimui ki ai.
Kae kehe, ko e faʻahinga ko ia ʻoku nau hoko ʻo fuʻu fulikivanu pea ʻikai ke toe lava ʻo liliú, heʻikai ke nau kau ʻi he toetuʻú. ʻI he mate ʻa e faʻahinga peheé, ʻe fakaʻauha taʻengata ai kinautolu ʻo ʻikai ha toe ʻamanaki ki ha toe foki mai ki he moʻuí.—Mātiu 23:33; Hepelū 10:26, 27.
ʻE hoko fakakū ʻa e toetuʻú? Naʻe tomuʻa tala ʻi he Tohi Tapú ko e toetuʻu ki hēvaní ʻe hoko ia ʻi he lolotonga ʻa e ʻi heni ʻa Kalaisí, ʻa ia naʻe kamata ʻi he 1914. (1 Kolinitō 15:21-23) Ko e toetuʻu ki he moʻui ʻi he māmaní ʻe hoko ia ʻi he lolotonga ʻa e Pule Taʻu ʻe Afe ʻa Sīsū Kalaisí, ʻi he taimi ʻe liliu ai ʻa e foʻi māmaní ko ha Palataisi.—Luke 23:43; Fakahā 20:6, 12, 13.
Ko e hā ʻoku ʻuhinga lelei ai ke tui ki he toetuʻú? ʻOku ʻi he Tohi Tapú ha ngaahi fakamatala fakaikiiki fekauʻaki mo ha toetuʻu ʻe hiva, ʻa ia ko e toetuʻu taki taha naʻe fakapapauʻi ia ʻe he kau fakamoʻoni sio tonu. (1 Tuʻi 17:17-24; 2 Tuʻi 4:32-37; 13:20, 21; Luke 7:11-17; 8:40-56; Sione 11:38-44; Ngāue 9:36-42; Ngāue 20:7-12; 1 Kolinitō 15:3-6) Ko hono fokotuʻu hake ʻe Sīsū ʻa Lāsalosí ʻoku fakatupu tokanga ia, koeʻuhi naʻe mate ʻa Lāsalosi ʻo ʻosi ʻa e ʻaho ʻe fā pea naʻe fakahoko ʻe Sīsū ʻa e maná ʻi he ʻao ʻo ha fuʻu kakai tokolahi. (Sione 11:39, 42) Naʻa mo e faʻahinga naʻa nau fakafepakiʻi ʻa Sīsuú naʻe ʻikai malava ke nau fakaʻikaiʻi ʻa e moʻoni ʻo e meʻá ni, ka ʻi hono kehé naʻa nau faʻufaʻu ke tāmateʻi fakatouʻosi ʻa Sīsū mo Lāsalosi.—Sione 11:47, 53; 12:9-11.
ʻOku fakahaaʻi ʻi he Tohi Tapú ʻoku maʻu ʻe he ʻOtuá ʻa e malava mo e holi ke fakafoki mai ʻa e maté. ʻOkú ne tauhi ʻi heʻene manatu taʻefakangatangatá, ʻa e fakamatala fakaikiiki ʻo e tokotaha taki taha te ne fokotuʻu hake ʻi hono mālohi aoniú. (Siope 37:23; Mātiu 10:30; Luke 20:37, 38) ʻOku malava ʻe he ʻOtuá ke fakafoki ʻa e maté ki he moʻuí, pea ko hono lotó ia! Ke fakamatalaʻi ʻa e toetuʻu ka hoko maí, ʻoku lave ʻa e Tohi Tapú fekauʻaki mo e ʻOtuá: “Te ke holi ki he ngāue ʻa ho nimá.”—Siope 14:15.

Moʻoni: Hili ʻa e maté, ko e sino ʻo e tokotahá ʻe movete nai ʻo ʻauʻaunga.—Tangata Malanga 3:19, 20.
