\u201cX\u2019hin konna mehlusin, gharafna li l-gzira kien jisimha Malta. In-nies ta\u2019 hemm urewna tjubija liema bhalha; gabruna u qabbdu nar minhabba x-xita li kienet lahqet u l-bard. Mela Pawlu gema\u2019 qabda hatab u tefghu gon-nar; harget lifgha minhabba s-shana u qabdet ma\u2019 idu. Malli raw in-nies tal-pajjiz il-bhima mdendla ma\u2019 idu, bdew ighidu wiehed lill-iehor: Dar-ragel tassew li hu xi qattiel, ghax, ghalkemm heles mill-bahar, il-Haqq ma hallihx ighix. Imma Pawlu farfar il-bhima fin-nar u ma gratlu ebda hsara. Huma kienu jistennewh jarawh jintefah u jaqa\u2019 mejjet minnufih. Wara li damu jistennew hafna u raw li ma gralu xejn barra mit-triq, biddlu fehmithom u bdew ighidu li kien alla.
\nMela f\u2019dawk l-inhawi kien hemm ir-raba\u2019 tal-hakem tal-gzira, li kien jismu Publiju. Laqaghna u zammna tlitt ijiem bil-qalb. Gara li missier Publiju kien mixhut, marid bid-deni u sabb id-demm. Dahal Pawlu hdejh, talab, qieghed idejh fuqu u fejqu. Wara dan, il-morda kollha li kien hemm fil-gzira gew ghandu u kienu mfejqin. Huma wrewna gieh kbir u, x\u2019hin konna sa nitilqu, tawna kull ma konna nehtiegu.\u201d (Atti 28. 1-10).<\/em><\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Ghalina l-Maltin din hi l-isbah pagna ta\u2019 l-Iskrittura kollha. San Luqa jghidilna l-istorja kollha ta\u2019 Pawlu f\u2019Malta: il-laqgha li ghamlulu l-Maltin u l-mirakli li ghamel maghhom.<\/p>\n

San Luqa jghidilna li malli l-bahrin u n-nies kollha tal-bastiment qabdu l-art gharfu li dik l-art kienet il-gzira ta\u2019 Malta. Qabel fil-kap 27, 89 kien qal li meta lemhu l-art ma gharfux x\u2019art kienet. Kif jista\u2019 jkun li l-bahrin li min jaf kemm kienu bahhru f\u2019dawk l-ibhra ma gharfux il-gzira ta\u2019 Malta? Il-bastiment li fuqu kien Pawlu kien Grieg jew Lixandrin (27, 6) u l-bahrin kienu Griegi. It-triq tieghu kienet mill-Lvant ghal Sqallija, dritt bla ma jmiss \u2018il Malta. Mhix haga kbira li la l-kaptan u lanqas il-bahrin qatt ma ghaddew Malta u qatt ma bahhru qrib Malta. Terga\u2019, jekk il-kaptan u l-bahrin kienu gew Malta drabi ohra kienu jafu biss il-portijiet il-kbar ta\u2019 Malta, mhux id-dahla ta\u2019 San Pawl il-Bahar. Mela ma ghandniex ghax nistaghgbu jekk hadd min-nies tal-bastiment ma gharaf l-art ta\u2019 Malta qabel ma kienu fuqha u staqsew lin-nies tal-post.<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Fit-tieni vers insibu kelma li ma tantx toghgobna. San Luqa l-Maltin isejhilhom \u201cbarbri\u201d . Din il-kelma ggibilna quddiem ghajnejna nies slavag, u nhossu weggha ta\u2019 qalb meta nahsbu li l-Maltin kienu nies ta\u2019 din il-qatgha. Izda fl-istess vers S. Luqa jfahhar il-Maltin ghat-tjubija ta\u2019 qalbhom u aktar \u2018il quddiem ighidilna li kellhom sentimenti religjuzi gholja. Kif jista\u2019 jkun li S. Luqa jikteb li l-Maltin kienu slavag u fl-stess hin kienu nies tajba u religjuzi? Ghalhekk naraw x\u2019ried ifisser biha l-kelma \u2018barbri\u2019. Il-kelma \u2018barbri\u2019 bil-Grieg u bil-Latin tfisser \u201cwiehed li jitkellem ilsien li ma jiftiehemx.\u201d Hekk S. Pawl fl-ewwel ittra lill-Korinti 14, 11, ighid: \u201cJekk jien ma nafx x\u2019ifisser il-hoss, inkun barbri ghal min jitkellem, u min jitkellem ikun barbri ghalija.\u201d Jigifieri jekk tnejn jitkellmu kull wiehed l-ilsien tieghu u ma jiftiehmux, ikunu t-tnejn barbrin. Mela l-Maltin kienu barbrin ghax ma kinux jifhmu l-ilsien ta\u2019 San Pawl jew ghax kienu jithaddtu bi lsien li ma kienx jiftiehem minn San Pawl, jigifieri l-Maltin dak iz-zmien ma kienux jitkellmu bil-Grieg, ma kinux Griegi.<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Il-Maltin kif raw in-nies tal-bastiment imxarrbin ghasra telghin mill-bahar hennew ghalihom. Kien ix-xahar ta\u2019 Novembru, u l-bard kien beda gmielu. Ghalhekk gabru ftit hatab, u qabbdu huggiega. Pawlu medd idejh ukoll jigbor il-hatab u kif tefghu gon-nar, tohrog lifgha u taqbad ma\u2019 idu. Bezghu 1-Maltin malli raw dan, ghax kienu jafu li l-lifgha kienet velenuza, u ghalhekk hasbu li Pawlu kellu jmut avvelenat mill-gidma tal-lifgha. U hawn tinqala\u2019 diffikult\u00e0 ohra. Malta ma hawnx sriep velenuzi. Jekk il-lum Malta ma hawnx sriep velenuzi, dan ma jfissirx li qatt ma kien hawn. Seta\u2019 kien hawn u nqerdu. Fi zmien San Pawl Malta ftit kienet imghammra. Ftit djar u hafna sigar u raba\u2019 mhux mahdum fejn 1-annimali kellhom wisa\u2019 kemm iridu fejn jigru u jimirhu bla ma jfixkilhom hadd. Maz-zmien beda jizdied il-bini u r-raba\u2019 jinhadem aktar. Mhix haga kbira li xi annimali, fosthom is-sriep velenuzi, inqerdu ghal kollox.<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Il-Maltin, meta raw il-lifgha mdendla ma\u2019 id Pawlu, mhux biss hasbu li kellu jmut imma gie f\u2019mohhhom hsieb religjuz gholi. Hadd ma jista\u2019 jahrab il-gustizzja ta\u2019 Alla. Pawlu kien prigunier sejjer biex ikun ikkundannat Ruma. Kien xi qattiel li kien haqqu kastig. Helisha mill-bahar, imma issa sa jithallas mil-lifgha. Ighid San Gwann Grizostmu: \u201cIl-Maltin kienu jemmnu li Alla jinsab kullimkien u li hadd ma jista\u2019 jahrab ghal dejjem il-kastig tieghu.\u201d Imma S. Pawl ma gralu xejn. Kif jista\u2019 jkun? Mela Pawlu ma kienx bniedem bhalhom. U jekk ma kienx bniedem, kien alla. Hekk hasbu u hekk qalu. Setghu qalu li kien sahhar, imma f\u2019Pawlu ma rawx hlief xi haga aqwa minn bniedem bhalhom. U dan kien veru, ghax jekk ma kienx alla, kellu setgha kbira minn Alla li biha kien jista\u2019 jmewwet il-qawwa tal-velenu tas-sriep.<\/p>\n

F\u2019dawk l-inhawi, ighid San Luqa, jigifieri lejn San Pawl il-Bahar, kien hemm ir-raba\u2019 tal-Hakem tal-gzira. Skond ma jahsbu, Pubiju kellu d-dar tieghu fejn il-llum hemm il-Knisja ta\u2019 San Pawl Milqghi. Missier Publiju kien marid bid-dissenterija. Mhix haga kbira, meta nahsbu li f\u2019dawk 1-inhawi kien hemm hafna ilma qieghed. Pawlu malajr fejjaq lil missier Publju bis-setgha li tah Alla. L-ahbar tal-fejqan ta\u2019 missier il-Gvernatur malajr xterdet mal-gzira kollha u kemm kien hemm morda garrewhom kollha ghand Pawlu li fejjaqhom kollha.<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

San Pawl u shabu damu tliet xhur Malta. X\u2019ghamel matul dan it-zmien ma nafux ghax San Luqa ma jghidilna xejn. Imma nistghu nisthajlu lil San Pawl imdawwar bil-Maltin fil-Grotta, fejn skond it-tradizzjoni ghammar San Pawl, ifissrilhom it-taghlim nisrani, jurihom li m\u2019hemmx hlief Alla wiehed, li dan Alla baghat l-Iben tieghu maghmul bniedem fid-dinja biex jifdina mid-dnub; li biex isalvaw jehtieg jemmnu f\u2019Alla Wiehed u f\u2019Gesu Kristu u jghixu kif irid Hu. Nisthajlu naraw il-Maltin jisimghuh b\u2019sikta u attenzjoni kbira. Nisthajlu naraw ukoll lil San Pawl ighammed il-Maltin li emmnu u maghhom fuq mejda wahda jbierek u jiekol il-Hobz Ewkaristiku.<\/p>\n

Haga wahda nistghu nghidu fi zgur: Il-Maltin habbewh lil San Pawl u San Pawl habbhom bhalma habb insara ohra. L-insara ta\u2019 Ruma, li ma kienx jafhom, Pawlu jifrah bihom (Rum. 16, 19). Il-Korintin huma \u201cWlied mahbubin\u201d (1 Kor. 4, 14; 10, 14). U kliem bhal dan, li juri mhabba l-aktar kbira ta\u2019 missier lejn uliedu, jikteb S. Pawl lill-insara kollha. U jista\u2019 jkun li lill-Maltin ma kienx ikellimhom b\u2019dik l-istess qalb li biha kien ikellem insara ohra? Kemm il-Maltin habbew lil San Pawl ighidilna San Luqa bil-kliem: \u201cHuma wrewna gieh kbir\u201d li jfissru li l-Maltin mhux biss irrispettaw lil San Pawl u lil dawk li kienu jghinuh fit-taghlim imma wkoll kienu jghinuhom bl-ikel u hwejjeg ohra tal-bzonn.<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Meta wasal iz-zmien li San Pawl kellu jitlaq minn Malta biex jibqa\u2019 sejjer Ruma, il-Maltin kollha gew ix-xatt biex jaghtuh l-ahhar tislima u jiehdu minn ghandu l-ahhar barka ta\u2019 Missier. Biex jibqghu juruh kemm kienu obbligati lejh talli ghamel maghhom gibulhom ikel u hwejjeg ohra kemm kellhom bzonn matul il-vjagg sa Ruma.<\/p>\n

<\/strong>Din hija l-istorja kif ighidielna San Luqa. X\u2019nitghallmu minnha? L-ewwel u l-aqwa haga hija l-laqgha li ghamlu l-Maltin lil San Pawl u lil shabu. Mhux biss gabruhom u sahhnuhom u tawhom l-ikel, imma qaghdu wkoll ghat-taghlim ta\u2019 San Pawl. It-taghlim ta\u2019 Pawlu ghalihom kien ic-cahda ta\u2019 kull ma kienu jemmnu u l-bidla tal-hajja li kienu ghexu qabel ma\u2019 hajja gdida, il-bidla tal-hajja pagana mal-hajja nisranija. U madankollu huma laqghuha u zammewha. <\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
