"Explore Chapter 42, 'Ordination of the Seventy at Magadan,' from Son of Man: Urantia, a compelling rewrite of Part 4 of the Urantia Book, detailing the life and teachings of Jesus. This chapter chronicles Jesus’ ordination of seventy devoted messengers on November 19th at Magadan, a pivotal moment in his ministry. Under Abner’s leadership, these evangelists, including former apostles of John, were commissioned to spread the gospel of the kingdom across Judea, Galilee, and Samaria. Jesus’ charge to them—proclaiming 'the kingdom of heaven is at hand' while ministering to the sick—emphasizes spiritual service over material gain, urging them to travel lightly and trust in divine provision. The narrative deepens with the story of Matadormus, a rich young Sanhedrin member, whose encounter with Jesus reveals the cost of discipleship: surrendering wealth for spiritual treasure. Jesus’ teachings on wealth, faith, and the kingdom’s demands unfold through poignant dialogues, including the parable of the laborers, illustrating divine generosity and justice. This chapter captures a transformative phase as Jesus prepares his followers for their mission, culminating in their six-week journey and return to Pella. Rich with themes of sacrifice, spiritual loyalty, and the universal brotherhood of God, this retelling offers profound insights into Jesus’ mission. Ideal for readers seeking a fresh perspective on his life, Son of Man: Urantia blends historical depth with spiritual wisdom, making Chapter 42 a cornerstone of this reimagined narrative."
