Maelezo ya Majibu
This quote comes from the Bible, specifically from the book of Luke, chapter 9, verse 62. In this passage, Jesus is talking to someone who wants to follow him, but asks for permission to first go and say goodbye to his family. Jesus responds by saying that anyone who puts their hand to the plough (a farming tool used to make furrows for planting seeds) and then looks back is not fit for the kingdom of God. In simpler terms, Jesus is using a metaphor to explain that if you make a commitment to follow him, you should not look back or be distracted by things from your past or present that may keep you from fulfilling that commitment. He is saying that if you want to follow him, you need to be fully dedicated and not let anything hold you back. This passage emphasizes the importance of wholeheartedly committing to Jesus and the message he brings.

Maelezo ya Majibu
According to the biblical account in 2 Kings 5, Naaman was a powerful commander in the army of the king of Aram who had leprosy. Naaman's servant, a young Israelite girl, told him about the prophet Elisha who could heal him. Naaman went to Elisha, who instructed him to bathe in the Jordan River seven times to be cured. Naaman followed the instructions and was healed of his leprosy. After Naaman was healed, he wanted to give Elisha a gift, but Elisha refused. However, Elisha's servant, Gehazi, was covetous and wanted to receive some of the gifts that Naaman had brought. So Gehazi went after Naaman and lied to him, saying that Elisha had sent him to ask for two talents of silver and two sets of clothing. Naaman gave Gehazi what he requested, and Gehazi hid the gifts in his house. When Gehazi returned to Elisha, he lied to him as well, saying that he had not gone anywhere. Elisha, being a prophet, knew what had happened and pronounced a curse on Gehazi and his descendants, saying that Naaman's leprosy would now be on him and his descendants forever. Therefore, it was Gehazi's covetousness and deceitfulness that caused him to receive Naaman's leprosy as a punishment for his actions.

Maelezo ya Majibu
The sign of God's covenant with Abraham was circumcision. In the book of Genesis, God made a covenant with Abraham and promised to make him the father of many nations. As a sign of this covenant, God instructed Abraham to circumcise himself, his male children, and his male servants. Circumcision is a surgical procedure that involves removing the foreskin of the penis. It was a common practice in the ancient Near East, but God gave it a new significance by making it the sign of His covenant with Abraham. Through circumcision, Abraham and his descendants were set apart as a people who belonged to God and were committed to following His ways. The practice of circumcision continued throughout the Old Testament, and it was an important sign of Jewish identity and faith. In the New Testament, however, the Apostle Paul taught that circumcision was not necessary for salvation, and that faith in Jesus Christ was the true sign of belonging to God. In summary, circumcision was the sign of God's covenant with Abraham, and it symbolized a commitment to follow God's ways and be set apart as His people.
