Wohwɛ Bible mu a, Hebri asɛm a wɔkyerɛɛ ase “kɔkɔɔ” no kyerɛ “mogya.” Bible de kɔkɔɔ ka aguaman wudifo bi ho asɛm wɔ kwan bi so ma etumi ka nnipa tirim. Ɛka sɛ ɔhyɛ atade afasebiri ne atade kɔkɔɔ, na ɔte “akekaboa kɔkɔɔ a abusudin ayɛ no mã” so.—Adiyisɛm 17:1-6.

FITAA yɛ kɔla a ɛtaa gyina hɔ ma hann, bammɔ ne ahotew. Yetumi de ka papayɛ, bemdi, ne kronnyɛ nso ho asɛm. Fitaa ne kɔla a Bible taa ka ho asɛm.

Wohwɛ Adiyisɛm nhoma no mu a, wubehu sɛ ɛka too hɔ sɛ akokoakoko ne ɔkɔm bɛba, na aduankɔm ne ɔyaredɔm de ɔpatuwu nso bɛba, na ɛno na nnɛ ɛrekɔ so no.

Ɛno akyi no, “ɔpɔnkɔ a ne ho nsonso bi [puei]; na nea ɔte no so no din de Owu.” (Adiyisɛm 6:1-8) Apɔnkɔ no biara kɔla yɛ biribi ho sɛnkyerɛnne, na atenka a saa kɔla no tumi ma yenya no ne saa sɛnkyerɛnne no kɔ.
