UbuKristu eMalta buvele ekhulwini lokuqala leminyaka yethu - ngokusho komlando, kwasakazwa umphostoli uPawulu ngokwakhe, owathunyelwa enkantolo kuKesari, kodwa ngenxa yesiphepho, umkhumbi wawugqoke amaviki amabili olwandle olusiphepho, futhi ekugcineni wafika esiqhingini, ngaleso sikhathi kwathiwa yiMelit, futhi namuhla kuthiwa iSt. Paul's Bay , noma isiqhingi saseSt. Paul (igama lisetshenziswe ngobuningi, ngoba empeleni lezi ziqhingi ezincane ezixhunywe yisakhiwo esincane). Kusukela ngaleso sikhathi, ubuKristu buzinzile ngokuqinile esiqhingini.
Umlando wokudalwa kwesithombe
Namuhla, lesi siqhingi singabona okunye okukhangayo okuhambisana nenkolo, kodwa omunye wabo unendawo ekhethekile - isithombe sikaKristu uMsindisi, esitholakala ngaphansi kwamanzi ogwini lwaseMalta, noma kunalokho - hhayi kude nogwini lwesiqhingi saseSt. Paul. Isifanekiso esenziwe ngekhonkri senziwa, isisindo sayo singamathani ayi-13, futhi ukuphakama kungamamitha amathathu. E-Maltese kuthiwa uKristu L-Bahhar.
Umsebenzi wokufakwa kwesithombe sikaJesu Kristu ngaphansi kwamanzi eMalta waqeda ukuhambelana nokuhambela kokuqala kukahulumeni kuJohn Paul II ngo-1990. Umlobi wesithombe wayengumdwebi odumile waseMalta u-Alfred Camilleri Kushi, futhi ikhasimende - ikomidi labahlukahlukene beMalta, eholwa nguSihlalo walo, uRaniero Borg. Izindleko zemisebenzi kwakuyi-1 million lire.
Isifanekiso sikaKristu ngaphansi kwamanzi sidonsela inqwaba yabantu abathanda ukudonsa eMalta futhi ibakhokhele endaweni yayo yamanje: ngaphambilini yayitholakala endaweni ephakeme ngamamitha angu-38, kodwa njengoba ipulazi lezinhlanzi liseduze, izinga lemanzi lahla kakhulu, okwenza ukubonakala kubonakale nakakhulu, futhi lesi sithombe asikwazanga ukucutshungulwa kahle. Ngakho-ke, ngo-2000 yasuswa, futhi namuhla uKristu ungaphansi kwamanzi "kuphela" endaweni ejulile yamamitha angu-10 eduze neMediterraneo Marine Park .
Ishukumise isithombe sikaKristu ngaphansi kwamanzi ngo-May 2000; ukuyiphakamisa kusukela phansi, i-crane isetshenzisiwe. Eceleni kwayo kuyisikhukhula se-Malta Gozo Ferry, esenza ukuxhumana phakathi kweMalta nesiqhingi saseGozo .
UJesu Kristu "ubheka" ngaphansi kwamanzi ngaseSaint Paul; kusukela ekujuleni uyaphakamisa izandla zakhe phezulu, futhi njengabakholwa bakholelwa, "umvikeli womuntu siqu" wabasolwandle, abadobi nabahlukahlukene.
Ezinye izithombe
Ngendlela, lokhu akusona isithombe kuphela sikaJesu Kristu ngaphansi kwamanzi - afana naso ezindaweni eziningana. Okudume kakhulu yiyona "uKristu welasha labo" e-Bay of San Frutuozo ngaseGenoa; ikhophi eyodwa yafakwa eduze komhlabathi ongaphansi kwamanzi weDry Rocks eduze nogu lwaseCalifornia, kanti enye yayingaphansi kwamanzi eduze nogu oluyinhloko-dolobha yaseGrenada, iSt George, kodwa kamuva lwasuswa emanzini futhi lwafakwa ekukhonjisweni kwenhloko-dolobha.
Ungayibona kanjani isithombe?
Ungabona lesi sithombe kuphela nge-aqualung futhi sihambisane nomfundisi onolwazi. Ukuze wenze lokhu, xhumana neqembu elilodwa lokudibela eduze neMediterraneo Marine Park.

Hlela ukuvakasha okufanayo nezinye amakilabhu e-dive, angabuye atholakale etafuleni lokuvakasha ehotela .
