Anthu ambiri amaganiza kuti dzina la Saulo linasinthika pamene anakhala wotsatira wa Yesu Khristu, koma si choncho. Dzina lake lachiyuda linali "Saulo" (Chiheberi: שָׁאוּל, Modern Sha'ûl, Tiberian Šā'ûl, "anapempha kuti, apemphere, adakhokwe"), mwina pambuyo pa Mfumu Sauli, bwenzi la Benjamini ndi mfumu yoyamba ya Israeli. Malingana ndi Bukhu la Machitidwe, iye anali nzika ya Roma. Monga nzika ya Roma, adatchedwanso dzina lachilatini la "Paulo" -chi Greek: Παῦλος (Paulos), ndi Chilatini: Paulus. Zinali zofanana kuti Ayuda a nthawi imeneyo akhale ndi mayina awiri, Chiheberi chimodzi, Chilatini china kapena Chigiriki.

Yesu anamutcha "Saulo, Saulo" mu "chilankhulo cha Chihebri" m'buku la Machitidwe, pamene anaona masomphenya omwe adatsogolera kutembenuka pa njira yaku Damasiko. Pambuyo pake, m'masomphenya kwa Hananiya wa ku Damasiko, "Ambuye" anamutcha "Saulo wa ku Tariso". Hananiya atabwera kudzabwezeretsa nkhope yake, adamutcha "M'bale Saulo".

Kulemba dzina lake lachiroma kunali kofanana ndi kachitidwe kaumishonale kwa Paulo. Njira yake inali kuyika anthu omasuka ndi kuwafikira ndi uthenga wake m'chinenero ndi kalembedwe zomwe anganene, monga 1 Akorinto 9: 19-23.


Nkhani ya m'Baibulo

[Sinthani | sintha gwero]

Dzina la Paulo linali poyamba Saulo (osati kuti asokonezeke ndi Mfumu Saulo kuchokera m'mabuku a Samueli mu Chipangano Chakale). Anakulira kuphunzira malamulo onse achiyuda ndi njira zachi Greek zofotokozera zinthu. Ife tikuyamba kudziwonekera kwa Saulo mu Baibulo pafupi ndi mapeto a Machitidwe 7. Mpingo wachikhristu unayamba ndi kuuka ndi kukwera kwa Yesu. Saulo anali kutsutsana kwambiri ndi izi, ndipo anali wokondwa pamene ankayang'ana Woyera Stefano, wofera chikhulupiriro choyamba wa Yesu, akuphedwa ndi kumuponya miyala atapereka mawu omwe anakwiya ndi khoti lachiyuda. Anagwira ntchito pa Boma lachiroma ndipo anathandiza kutsogolera kumangidwa ndi kuphedwa kwa akhristu ambiri mu Israeli komanso pafupi.

Pambuyo pake, Saulo anauzidwa kuti apite ku Damasiko kukapeza ndi kubwezeretsanso Akhristu kumeneko kuti adzalangidwe. Ali panjira, Mulungu adatsika kumwamba ndipo analankhula ndi Saulo. Baibulo limalongosola za zomwe zinachitika monga izi:

Paulendo wake, Saulo anapita ku Damasiko. Mwadzidzidzi kuwala kochokera Kumwamba kunaunikira kuzungulira iye. Iye adagwa pansi. Iye anamva liwu likuyankhula kwa iye.

"Saulo, Saulo!" liwu linati. "Nchifukwa chiyani iwe ukunditsutsa ine?"

"Ndiwe yani, Ambuye?" Saulo anafunsa.

"Ndine Yesu," adayankha. "Ndine amene ukumutsutsa. + Tsopano nyamuka, upite kumzinda. + Udzauzidwa zimene uyenera kuchita." +

Amuna akuyenda ndi Saulo adayima pamenepo. Sankatha kulankhula. Iwo anali atamva phokosolo. Koma iwo sanamuwone aliyense. Saulo adadzuka pansi. Anatsegula maso ake, koma sanathe kuona. Choncho anam'gwira dzanja ku Damasiko. Kwa masiku atatu anali wakhungu. Iye sanadye kapena kumwa kanthu. Machitidwe 9: 3-9, NIRV

Paulo ayenera kuti anabadwira pakati pa zaka za 5 BC ndi 5 AD. Bukhu la Machitidwe limasonyeza kuti Paulo anali mbadwa ya chi Roma, koma Helmut Koester amatsutsa ndi umboni umene ulipo.[2][Acts 16:37][Acts 22:25–29]

Anachokera ku banja lachiyuda lodzipereka mumzinda wa Tarsus, limodzi mwa malo akuluakulu amalonda ogombe la Mediterranean. Iyo idakhalapo zaka mazana angapo iye asanabadwe. Iyo inali yotchuka kwa yunivesite yake. Panthawi ya Alexander Wamkulu, yemwe adamwalira mu 323 BC, Tariso ndiwo mzinda wokhala ndi mphamvu kwambiri ku Asia Minor.[3] Paulo anadzitcha yekha "wochokera kwa Israeli, wa fuko la Benjamini, Mhebri wa Ahebri; ponena za lamulo, Mfarisi".[Phil. 3:5]

Baibulo silinena zambiri za banja la Paulo. Mwana wa mchimwene wa Paulo, mwana wa mlongo wake, akutchulidwa mu Acts 23:16. Machitidwe amatsindiranso Paulo ponena za atate ake kuti iye, Paulo, anali "Mfarisi, mwana wa Mfarisi" (Acts 23:6). Mu Romans 16:7 akunena kuti achibale ake, Andronicus ndi Yunia, anali akhristu asanakhalepo ndipo anali otchuka pakati pa atumwi.

[Sinthani | sintha gwero]

Iye anakhala zaka zitatu zotsatira ndikuphunzira malemba Achiyuda kachiwiri kuti apeze tsatanetsatane za ziphunzitso zachikristu. Zimene anakumana nazo zinasintha maganizo ake. Anasintha dzina lake kukhala Paulo ndipo adapatulira moyo wake kuti atumikire Yesu Khristu. Anagwiritsa ntchito maphunziro ake oyambirira kufotokozera chikhulupiriro chake chatsopano kwa anthu ena komanso kukambirana ndi anthu omwe anali ndi zikhulupiriro zina.

Anayenda kuzungulira Ufumu wa Roma, kuphunzitsa ena za Chikhristu, ndipo analemba makalata mmbuyo ndi mtsogolo ndi mipingo yomwe iye anathandiza kuti ayambe. Makalata ali ndi zigawo zambiri zofunikira za chiphunzitso chachikristu ndipo kuyambira pano akhala mbali ya Chipangano Chatsopano cha Baibulo, kubwera pakati pa Machitidwe a Atumwi ndi Makalata Akuluakulu. Sitikudziwika ngati Paulo analembadi makalata onsewa, kapena ngati anthu ena akanatha kulemba makalata ake. Chimodzi mwa makalata amenewa amawerengedwa pa Misa ngati yachiwiri mwa mawerengedwe awiri omwe amadza patsogolo pa Uthenga Wabwino.

Ngakhale kuti Baibulo silinena momwe Paulo adafera, zinauzidwa kuti Paulo anaphedwa ndi lamulo la mfumu Nero ku Roma, mu 67 AD. Iye anali ndi ufulu wa nzika ya Roma, zomwe zikutanthauza kuti iye akanakhoza kuphedwa pokhala atadula mutu wake ndi lupanga, osati kupachikidwa.
