75:6.1 When [[Adam]] learned that the [[Nodites]] were on the march, he sought the [[counsel]] of the [[Melchizedeks]], but they refused to advise him, only telling him to do as he [[thought]] best and [[promising]] their [[friendly]] [[co-operation]], as far as possible, in any [[course]] he might decide upon. The [[Melchizedeks]] had been forbidden to [[interfere]] with the [[personal]] [[plans]] of [[Adam and Eve]].

75:6.2 [[Adam]] knew that he and [[Eve]] had failed; the [[presence]] of the [[Melchizedek receivers]] told him that, though he still knew nothing of their [[personal]] [[status]] or [[future]] [[fate]]. He held an all-night conference with some twelve hundred [[loyal]] followers who [[pledged]] themselves to follow their [[leader]], and the next day at noon these [[pilgrims]] went forth from [[Eden]] in quest of new [[homes]]. Adam had no liking for [[war]] and accordingly elected to leave the [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_73 first garden] to the [[Nodites]] unopposed.

75:6.3 The Edenic caravan was halted on the third day out from [[the Garden]] by the arrival of the [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_39#39:4._ADMINISTRATOR_SERAPHIM seraphic transports] from [[Jerusem]]. And for the first time [[Adam and Eve]] were informed of what was to become of their [[children]]. While the [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_39#39:4._ADMINISTRATOR_SERAPHIM transports] stood by, those [[children]] who had arrived at the age of [[choice]] (twenty years) were given the [[option]] of remaining on [[Urantia]] with their [[parents]] or of becoming wards of the [[Most Highs]] of [[Norlatiadek]]. Two thirds chose to go to [[Edentia]]; about one third elected to remain with their [[parents]]. All children of prechoice age were taken to [[Edentia]]. No one could have beheld the sorrowful parting of this [[Material Son and Daughter]] and their [[children]] without realizing that the way of the transgressor is hard. These offspring of [[Adam and Eve]] are now on [[Edentia]]; we do not know what disposition is to be made of them.

75:6.4 It was a sad, sad caravan that prepared to [[journey]] on. Could anything have been more [[tragic]]! To have come to a world in such high [[hopes]], to have been so auspiciously received, and then to go forth in [[disgrace]] from [[Eden]], only to lose more than three fourths of their [[children]] even before finding a new [[Home|abiding place]]!
