Such reading is called a verb that wears a name; but the ካሮች/ Karo people, considering the name as gold and the example as righteousness, say ቀብዐ/ qebea means united, and ተቀብዐ/ teqebea means was united; they interpret it illogically, ungrammatically, inappropriately, and without understanding the mystery. If the meaning of ተቀብዐ/ teqebea is was united, then Cyril of Alexandria says, He does not accept anointing in his being. And his divinity is not anointed; this reading forces them to deny natural union against their will; it suggests that his divinity is not united. To become a teacher without being a student speaks such destructive things, making the truth false and the false true. They have not even found the heart or back of the mystery of ተሰብአ/ tesebea and ተቀብዐ/ teqebea; and so are the anointings.

As they say “ያገር ቀንድ” horn of the country: (መዝ: ፻፴፩። ሉቃ፩: ፷፱። ሕዝ፳፱: ፳፩)።. But the book says ተቈናደየ / teqonadeye instead of ቈንደየ/ qondeye; it doesnt make sense. “ትትቈናደዩ ብየ ወትዘረክዩኒ” You treat me arrogantly and mock me: (ኢዮ፲፱: ፭). See ጐንደየ/ gondeye; it is the root of this.

[2]: The name of a religious doctrine; introduced by Ewur ZeIyesus during Emperor Fassils reign, similar to Azaz ZeDingil introducing the Karan culture and being called Karan during Susenyoss reign. The Kibat (anointing) doctrine has three parts. First, those of ZeIyesus, who arose during Fassils reign; as the scripture says the word became flesh; when the Word united with the flesh, it lost its natural glory; when anointed, it returned to its original glory and became one natural son in both its humanity and divinity through anointing. Its mystery is like Mosess rod; it shows both striking and transformation in unity. Second, those of Andegna Yohannes, who rejected and condemned the saying became flesh; as the scripture says for the union introduced duality; the flesh became one body through the union, but did not gain divine glory. But when anointed, glory was transferred to it; its nature and deed disappeared; and it became a natural son and natural God through anointing. Its mystery is to give anointing and change to the flesh alone. (ተረት/ proverbs ) “አልሸሹም ዘወር አሉ።” They didnt flee, they turned aside. Third, those of Aleka Goshu, who lived during Tewodross reign, rejected saying only through anointing; as the scripture says everything was glorified through union and glorified through anointing; anointing without union, and union without anointing alone do not glorify; they said that through union and anointing in unity, divine glory glorified and became a natural son; all three are complete transformations; they take the flesh out of creation and the Word out of Messiahship. However, tekeba (was anointed) means that since the subject is the Word; like Karan and anointing, the flesh inherited the sovereign order, natural glory, and natural birth from the Word of God, You are my Son; as Cyril and John Chrysostom say; the Word is an inheritance in the flesh, a natural state in the flesh, as Solomon, Isaac son of David, son of Abraham; son of Adam, son of Mary were called in his humanity, in his son of man nature; the lower order, where the first Adam inherited wealth from the Father and was told Today I have begotten you; the glory of his humanity, where the second Adam, the first of the faithful, became king and priest; and showed his perfect wealth and perfect appointment, his birth of action, which made him a prophet, apostle, and angel, but does not show natural birth and divinity. As written and spoken in the Old and New Testaments by the scholars. (መወድስ ዘክፍለ ዮሐንስ) “ሃይማኖተ ቄርሎስ ኮነት ግማዳተ አብድ፤ ወኍልቈ ተመትሮ አብዝኀት ኀበ ኢሀሎ ንጉሥ፤ ካህነ ደብረ ኤፍሬም ቅድመ እምዘመተራ ነኣስ፤ ወአመ ኢዮርብዓም ለምሳሌ በእደ ነቢይ ዘተሠጠት ልብስ።” The faith of Cyril became the foundation of fools; and the number of those who were tested increased where there was no king; the priest of Debre Ephraim despised before he was tested; and when Jeroboam, for example, the garment given by the hand of the prophet. “እንተ እምኵሉሰ ያጠይስ ወዘያነድድ ልቡና ኢትበሊ ኤዶምያስ፤ ተቀበዐ ቅብዐ ውላጤ ሕሩመ ተውላጥ ክርስቶስ፤ ወአኮ በተቀብዖቱ በኵረ ውሉዳ ለዮርዳኖስ።” But that which smokes from everything and ignites the mind, do not say, Edomias; he was anointed with the anointing of transformation, the chosen changer Christ; and not by his anointing, the firstborn of the children of the Jordan. “ወእንዘ ትትናገሪ ዘንተ በአድንኖ ክሣድ ወርእስ፤ ከመ አነ ሰማዕኩኪ ኢይስማዕኪ ጳውሎስ።” And while you speak this, nodding your neck and head; so that Paul may not hear you, as I have heard you.
