Polikarpi i lavdish\u00ebm, q\u00eb ishte, sipas nx\u00ebn\u00ebsit t\u00eb tij, Irineut t\u00eb Lionit, \u201cnx\u00ebn\u00ebsi i apostujve dhe familjar me ata q\u00eb kishin par\u00eb Zotin\u201d, lindi n\u00eb Efes, n\u00eb koh\u00ebn e perandorit Vespasian (rreth vitit 70). Para se t\u00eb martirizoheshin, prind\u00ebrit e tij t\u00eb shenjt\u00eb ia besuan f\u00ebmij\u00ebn e tyre nj\u00eb gruaje t\u00eb shenjt\u00eb, Kalist\u00ebs, q\u00eb e rriti me frik\u00eb Per\u00ebndie dhe me dashuri p\u00ebr virtytet e shenjta. Plot me dashuri n\u00eb shpirt, f\u00ebmija jepte aq shum\u00eb l\u00ebmosh\u00eb, sa zbrazi rezervat e n\u00ebn\u00ebs s\u00eb tij q\u00eb e kishte adoptuar, p\u00ebr t\u2019ua dh\u00ebn\u00eb t\u00eb varf\u00ebrve.<\/p>\n
Meqen\u00ebse ato u rimbush\u00ebn p\u00ebrs\u00ebri n\u00eb m\u00ebnyr\u00eb t\u00eb mrekullueshme, Kalista i ndryshoi emrin, dhe nga Pangrat e quajti Polikarp (q\u00eb do t\u00eb thot\u00eb: me shum\u00eb fryte).<\/p>\n
Kur arriti n\u00eb mosh\u00eb t\u00eb pjekur, Polikarpi u b\u00eb nx\u00ebn\u00ebs i sh\u00ebn Joan Theologut, i cili shpallte n\u00eb at\u00eb koh\u00eb lajmin e mir\u00eb n\u00eb provinc\u00ebn e Azis\u00eb, bashk\u00eb me sh\u00ebn Bukolin (6 shkurt) dhe sh\u00ebn Ignat Hyjmbajt\u00ebsin (20 dhjetor). Duke p\u00ebrftuar nga m\u00ebsimdh\u00ebnia e tij n\u00eb gjith\u00e7ka q\u00eb kishte lidhje me Zotin, Polikarpi bashk\u00ebndau me Nx\u00ebn\u00ebsin e Shum\u00ebdashur t\u00eb Tij t\u00eb gjitha mundimet, deri n\u00eb internimin e tij n\u00eb Patmos. Sh\u00ebn Joani e hirotonisi Bukolin episkop t\u00eb qytetit t\u00eb madh dhe t\u00eb famsh\u00ebm t\u00eb Smirn\u00ebs dhe i besoi Polikarpin si ndihm\u00ebs e shok t\u00eb mundimeve. Kur mb\u00ebrriti n\u00eb Smirn\u00eb, Polikarpi u hirotonis prift dhe u ngarkua me p\u00ebrkujdesjen p\u00ebr jetim\u00ebt, deri n\u00eb dit\u00ebn kur Bukoli, q\u00eb parashikoi vdekjen e vet, e caktoi p\u00ebr t\u00eb qen\u00eb pasardh\u00ebsi i tij.<\/p>\n
K\u00ebshtu Polikarpi, me an\u00eb t\u00eb vullnetit t\u00eb Per\u00ebndis\u00eb dhe t\u00eb atit t\u00eb tij shpirt\u00ebror, u b\u00eb bariu i Kish\u00ebs s\u00eb Smirn\u00ebs, dhe punoi me plot zell, duke imituar n\u00eb gjith\u00e7ka sjelljen e shenjt\u00eb t\u00eb et\u00ebrve t\u00eb tij dhe duke p\u00ebrs\u00ebritur besnik\u00ebrisht fjal\u00ebt q\u00eb ata i kishin marr\u00eb nga vet\u00eb goja e Zotit ton\u00eb. Sh\u00ebn Joani i d\u00ebrgonte prej internimit lavd\u00ebrimet e tij Engj\u00ebllit t\u00eb Kish\u00ebs s\u00eb Smirn\u00ebs dhe e inkurajonte t\u00eb q\u00ebndronte besnik deri n\u00eb vdekje, p\u00ebr t\u00eb marr\u00eb kuror\u00ebn e jet\u00ebs s\u00eb p\u00ebrjetshme (Zbul. 2:10). I veshur me hirin hyjnor, Polikarpi kreu mrekulli t\u00eb shumta: me lutjen e tij shoi nj\u00eb zjarr q\u00eb k\u00ebrc\u00ebnonte mbar\u00eb krahin\u00ebn p\u00ebr shtat\u00eb dit\u00eb me radh\u00eb, b\u00ebri t\u00eb binte shi i bollsh\u00ebm pas nj\u00eb that\u00ebsire t\u00eb gjat\u00eb, \u00e7liroi t\u00eb demonizuar dhe sh\u00ebroi t\u00eb s\u00ebmur\u00eb, saq\u00eb shum\u00eb pagan\u00eb, fal\u00eb tij, u b\u00ebn\u00eb t\u00eb krishter\u00eb.<\/p>\n
N\u00eb fillim t\u00eb baritimit t\u00eb Polikarpit (viti 101), sh\u00ebn Ignati u d\u00ebnua me vdekje dhe u d\u00ebrgua i lidhur me zinxhir\u00eb n\u00eb Rom\u00eb p\u00ebr t\u2019u b\u00ebr\u00eb pre e bishave t\u00eb aren\u00ebs. Ai kaloi nga Smirna dhe ishte i lumtur t\u00eb p\u00ebrqafonte p\u00ebr her\u00eb t\u00eb fundit episkopin e shenjt\u00eb. Kur mb\u00ebrriti n\u00eb Troad\u00eb, sh\u00ebn Ignati i d\u00ebrgoi nj\u00eb let\u00ebr ku e fal\u00ebnderonte p\u00ebr mikpritjen e tij, i dor\u00ebzoi kujdesjen e Kish\u00ebs s\u00eb Antiokis\u00eb dhe i transmetoi k\u00ebshilla t\u00eb vyera e t\u00eb frym\u00ebzuara hyjnisht p\u00ebr detyrat e bariut: Un\u00eb lavd\u00ebroj Zotin q\u00eb m\u00eb ka gjykuar t\u00eb denj\u00eb t\u00eb sodit fytyr\u00ebn t\u00ebnde t\u00eb paqortueshme. Kryeje detyr\u00ebn t\u00ebnde episkopale me zell t\u00eb madh n\u00eb trup dhe n\u00eb shpirt. Merru me unitetin, sepse nuk ka asgj\u00eb m\u00eb t\u00eb lart\u00eb se ai. Duroji me dashuri t\u00eb gjith\u00eb njer\u00ebzit, ashtu si Zoti t\u00eb duron ty. Mbaji dob\u00ebsit\u00eb e t\u00eb gjith\u00ebve, si nj\u00eb atlet i p\u00ebrsosur. Koha e tanishme t\u00eb k\u00ebrkon t\u00eb fitosh Per\u00ebndin\u00eb, nj\u00ebsoj si timonieri q\u00ebndron n\u00eb pritje t\u00eb er\u00ebs dhe si njeriu i rrahur nga furtuna, q\u00eb shpreson t\u00eb dal\u00eb n\u00eb limanin e qet\u00eb….<\/p>\n
N\u00eb vazhdim, sh\u00ebn Polikarpi u shkruante t\u00eb krishter\u00ebve t\u00eb Filipis\u00eb p\u00ebr t\u2019i p\u00ebrg\u00ebzuar q\u00eb e prit\u00ebn denj\u00ebsisht sh\u00ebn Ignatin dhe martir\u00ebt: … ikonat e dashuris\u00eb s\u00eb v\u00ebrtet\u00eb, t\u00eb cilat i keni shoq\u00ebruar si\u00e7 u ka hije atyre q\u00eb ishin lidhur me zinxhir\u00eb t\u00eb denj\u00eb p\u00ebr shenjtor\u00ebt, q\u00eb jan\u00eb diademat e atyre q\u00eb jan\u00eb zgjedhur v\u00ebrtet nga Per\u00ebndia. Ai i nxiste t\u00eb q\u00ebndronin n\u00eb durimin q\u00eb pan\u00eb t\u00eb rrezatuar te martir\u00ebt dhe iu sjell p\u00ebrpara parimet e jet\u00ebs s\u00eb nj\u00eb komuniteti t\u00eb krishter\u00eb, i cili \u00ebsht\u00eb mik i dashuris\u00eb: Besa \u00ebsht\u00eb n\u00ebna e ne t\u00eb gjith\u00ebve, ajo \u00ebsht\u00eb burimi i shpres\u00ebs dhe paraprihet nga dashuria p\u00ebr Per\u00ebndin\u00eb, p\u00ebr Krishtin dhe p\u00ebr t\u00eb af\u00ebrmin.

Sh\u00ebn Polikarpi e drejtoi Kish\u00ebn e tij n\u00eb m\u00ebnyr\u00eb apostolike p\u00ebr m\u00eb shum\u00eb se 50 vjet. N\u00eb vitin 160, tashm\u00eb i moshuar, b\u00ebri nj\u00eb udh\u00ebtim n\u00eb Rom\u00eb p\u00ebr t\u00eb diskutuar me pap\u00ebn Aniket n\u00eb lidhje me nj\u00eb dallim q\u00eb e ndante Rom\u00ebn me Kishat e Azis\u00eb p\u00ebr dat\u00ebn e Pashk\u00ebs dhe p\u00ebr t\u00eb mbrojtur bes\u00ebn e v\u00ebrtet\u00eb kund\u00ebr herezive. Shk\u00eblqimi i shenjt\u00ebris\u00eb dhe i m\u00ebsimit t\u00eb tij b\u00ebri q\u00eb t\u00eb ktheheshin n\u00eb besimin e v\u00ebrtet\u00eb shum\u00eb veta q\u00eb ishin mashtruar nga heretik\u00ebt Valentin dhe Markion. N\u00eb \u00e7astin kur po largohej nga Roma, Papa i la p\u00ebr hir t\u00eb nderimit, kryesimin e Mbledhjes Eukaristike dhe, pasi shk\u00ebmbyen puthjen e shenjt\u00eb, u ndan\u00eb me paqe, me respekt t\u00eb nd\u00ebrsjell\u00eb p\u00ebr dallimet legjitime midis Kishave lokale.<\/p>\n
Pak koh\u00eb pas kthimit t\u00eb tij n\u00eb Smirn\u00eb (165), shp\u00ebrtheu nj\u00eb persekutim i dhunsh\u00ebm kund\u00ebr t\u00eb krishter\u00ebve nga perandori Mark Aureli (161-180), q\u00eb p\u00ebshtjelloi mbar\u00eb Kishat e Azis\u00eb. N\u00eb k\u00ebt\u00eb koh\u00eb, gjat\u00eb martirizimit t\u00eb dymb\u00ebdhjet\u00eb martir\u00ebve nga Filadelfia, sh\u00ebn Polikarpi, tashm\u00eb 86 vje\u00e7, vdiq me nj\u00eb vdekje t\u00eb lavdishme, t\u00eb Shtun\u00ebn e Madhe, n\u00eb m\u00ebnyr\u00eb t\u00eb ngjashme me P\u00ebsimin e Zotit ton\u00eb Jisu Krisht.<\/p>\n
Gjat\u00eb koh\u00ebs q\u00eb k\u00ebta martir\u00eb t\u00eb shenjt\u00eb t\u00eb Krishtit po duronin t\u00eb gjitha llojet e torturave dhe n\u00eb fund do t\u00eb sh\u00ebrbenin si ushqim p\u00ebr bishat, Polikarpi shum\u00eb i nderuar, po ruante qet\u00ebsin\u00eb e tij t\u00eb zakonshme dhe donte t\u00eb q\u00ebndronte n\u00eb qytet p\u00ebr t\u00eb mos e braktisur grigj\u00ebn e tij. Por, duke d\u00ebgjuar lutjet e shok\u00ebve t\u00eb tij, t\u00eb cil\u00ebt i k\u00ebrkuan q\u00eb t\u00eb mos e ekspozonte para kohe veten e tij n\u00eb vdekje, u t\u00ebrhoq n\u00eb nj\u00eb pron\u00eb t\u00eb vog\u00ebl, jo larg qytetit, dhe nat\u00eb e dit\u00eb lutej p\u00ebr t\u00eb gjith\u00eb njer\u00ebzit dhe p\u00ebr Kishat e mbar\u00eb bot\u00ebs. Tri dit\u00eb para arrestimit, nd\u00ebrsa po lutej, pati nj\u00eb vegim n\u00eb t\u00eb cilin jast\u00ebku i tij mori zjarr dhe u b\u00eb shkrumb. Kur u kthye te shok\u00ebt, u b\u00ebri t\u00eb ditur se s\u00eb shpejti ai do t\u00eb jepte jet\u00ebn e tij p\u00ebr hir t\u00eb Krishtit.<\/p>\n
Kur kishte shkuar n\u00eb nj\u00eb tjet\u00ebr streh\u00eb, kat\u00ebr burra t\u00eb armatosur, q\u00eb m\u00ebsuan se ku q\u00ebndronte, pasi torturuan nj\u00eb skllav t\u00eb ri, shkuan dhe u fut\u00ebn me dhun\u00eb n\u00eb nd\u00ebrtes\u00eb. Shenjtori refuzoi t\u00eb largohej dhe i priti me nj\u00eb fytyr\u00eb plot rrezatim e drit\u00eb, i ftoi t\u00eb hanin nj\u00eb m\u00ebngjes t\u00eb mir\u00eb, duke u k\u00ebrkuar q\u00eb ta linin p\u00ebr pak koh\u00eb t\u00eb lutej. Ata pranuan dhe ai, pothuajse dy or\u00eb, u lut m\u00eb k\u00ebmb\u00eb, i mbushur plot me hirin e Per\u00ebndis\u00eb, duke kujtuar t\u00eb gjith\u00eb njer\u00ebzit q\u00eb kishte njohur, t\u00eb m\u00ebdhenj e t\u00eb vegj\u00ebl, si edhe Kish\u00ebn n\u00eb mbar\u00eb bot\u00ebn. Erdhi ora e largimit dhe ushtar\u00ebt, t\u00eb kapur nga nj\u00eb frik\u00eb e madhe dhe pasi u penduan q\u00eb nd\u00ebrmor\u00ebn nj\u00eb veprim t\u00eb till\u00eb, e hip\u00ebn mbi nj\u00eb gomar q\u00eb ta \u00e7onin n\u00eb Smirn\u00eb. P\u00ebrgjegj\u00ebsi i rojave, q\u00eb quhej edhe ai Herod, ndaloi para tij dhe e mori n\u00eb karroc\u00ebn e vet, p\u00ebr ta bindur q\u00eb t\u00eb shp\u00ebtonte jet\u00ebn duke i b\u00ebr\u00eb sakrific\u00eb Cezarit.

Kur hyri n\u00eb stadiumin e mbushur plot, ku turma th\u00ebrriste e ul\u00ebrinte e etur p\u00ebr gjak, nj\u00eb z\u00eb hyjnor u d\u00ebgjua n\u00eb mes t\u00eb t\u00eb krishter\u00ebve t\u00eb pakt\u00eb, q\u00eb ndodheshin n\u00eb at\u00eb mas\u00eb njer\u00ebzish. \u201cKi kuraj\u00eb, Polikarp, dhe sillu si burr\u00eb!\u201d. Prokonsulli e nxiti t\u00eb mohonte Krishtin, duke th\u00ebn\u00eb: \u201cT\u00eb t\u00eb vij\u00eb keq p\u00ebr mosh\u00ebn t\u00ebnde t\u00eb madhe!\u201d, si dhe gj\u00ebra t\u00eb tjera, q\u00eb persekutor\u00ebt e kan\u00eb zakon t\u00eb thon\u00eb n\u00eb t\u00eb tilla raste. \u201cBetohu p\u00ebr emrin e Cezarit dhe thuaj: Posht\u00eb ateist\u00ebt!\u201d, i th\u00ebrriste atij. Polikarpi hodhi v\u00ebshtrimin mbi turm\u00ebn e pagan\u00ebve q\u00eb kishte mbushur amfiteatrin dhe u p\u00ebrgjigj duke psher\u00ebtir\u00eb: \u201cPo, sigurisht, posht\u00eb ateist\u00ebt!\u201d. Teksa po e urdh\u00ebronin t\u00eb mohonte Krishtin, ai u p\u00ebrgjigj: \u201cP\u00ebr 86 vjet me radh\u00eb un\u00eb i kam sh\u00ebrbyer atij dhe nuk m\u00eb ka b\u00ebr\u00eb asgj\u00eb t\u00eb keqe.

Prokonsulli i tha: \u201cUn\u00eb kam kafsh\u00eb t\u00eb egra dhe, n\u00ebse nuk ndryshon mendje, do t\u00eb b\u00ebhesh pre e tyre\u201d.

Polikarpi, plot me fuqi dhe g\u00ebzim, iu p\u00ebrgjigj: \u201cTi m\u00eb k\u00ebrc\u00ebnon me zjarrin q\u00eb digjet p\u00ebr nj\u00eb \u00e7ast dhe pas pak kohe shuhet, sepse nuk e njeh zjarrin e gjykimit t\u00eb ardhsh\u00ebm dhe mundimin e p\u00ebrjetsh\u00ebm, q\u00eb iu \u00ebsht\u00eb b\u00ebr\u00eb gati t\u00eb pabes\u00ebve.

Pasi tellalli shpalli se Polikarpi kishte deklaruar tri her\u00eb radhazi se ishte i krishter\u00eb, turma e t\u00ebrbuar k\u00ebrkoi me forc\u00eb q\u00eb nj\u00eb luan i eg\u00ebrsuar t\u00eb l\u00ebshohej kund\u00ebr tij.

Kur b\u00ebn\u00eb gati pirgun e druve n\u00eb mes t\u00eb stadiumit, Polikarpi i hoqi vet\u00eb rrobat e tij dhe po aq i qet\u00eb sa ishte kur kryente sakrific\u00ebn e shenjt\u00eb, donte t\u00eb hiqte edhe k\u00ebpuc\u00ebt, gj\u00eb q\u00eb nuk e kishte b\u00ebr\u00eb ngaq\u00eb besimtar\u00ebt donin t\u2019i puthnin k\u00ebmb\u00ebt.

Kur ai shqiptoi fjal\u00ebn Amin dhe p\u00ebrfundoi lutjen, xhelat\u00ebt e ndez\u00ebn zjarrin. Nj\u00eb zjarr i madh u ngrit p\u00ebrpjet\u00eb, por, p\u00ebr \u00e7udi, flaka mori form\u00ebn e nj\u00eb veli, q\u00eb tundej nga era, e cila e rrethonte si mur mbrojt\u00ebs trupin e shenjtorit.
