46:5.2 Each of these [[residential]] groupings consists of [[seven]] [[concentric]] and successively elevated [[circles]]. They are all constructed along the same lines but are of [[different]] sizes and are[[ fashione]]d of differing [[materials]]. They are all [[surrounded]] by far-reaching enclosures, which mount up to form extensive [[promenades]] entirely [[encompassing]] every [[group]] of [[seven]] [[concentric circles]].

46:5.2 Each of these [[residential]] groupings consists of [[seven]] [[concentric]] and successively elevated [[circles]]. They are all constructed along the same lines but are of [[different]] sizes and are [[fashion]]ed of differing [[materials]]. They are all [[surrounded]] by far-reaching enclosures, which mount up to form extensive [[promenades]] entirely [[encompassing]] every [[group]] of [[seven]] [[concentric circles]].
    
46:5.3 1. ''Circles of the [[Sons of God]]''. Though the [[Sons of God]] [[possess]] a social [[planet]] of their own, one of the [[transitional]]-[[culture]] worlds, they also occupy these extensive [[domains]] on [[Jerusem]]. On their [[transitional]]-[[culture]] world the [[ascending mortals]] freely mingle with all [[orders]] of [[divine]] sonship. There you will [[personally]] know and [[love]] these Sons, but their social life is largely confined to this special world and its [[satellites]]. In the [[Jerusem]] circles, however, these various [[groups]] of sonship may be [[observed]] at [[work]]. And since [[morontia]] [[vision]] is of enormous range, you can walk about on the Sons' [[promenades]] and overlook the [[intriguing]] [[activities]] of their numerous orders.

46:5.4 These [[seven]] [[circles]] of the Sons are [[concentric]] and successively elevated so that each of the outer and larger circles overlooks the inner and smaller ones, each being [[surrounded]] by a [[public]] [[promenade]] wall. These walls are constructed of [[crystal]] [[gems]] of gleaming brightness and are so elevated as to overlook all of their respective [[residential]] circles. The many gates—from fifty to one hundred and fifty thousand—which penetrate each of these walls consist of single pearly [[crystals]].

46:5.5 The first circle of the [[domain]] of the Sons is occupied by the [[Magisterial Sons]] and their [[personal]] staffs. Here [[center]] all of the [[plans]] and [[immediate]] [[activities]] of the [[bestowal]] and [[adjudication]]al [[services]] of these juridical Sons. It is also through this [[center]] that the [[Avonals]] of [[the system]] [[maintain]] [[contact]] with the [[universe]].

''The circles of the [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_37#37:1._THE_UNIVERSE_AIDS Universe Aids]'' have the [[headquarters]] of the [[Evening Stars]] situated in the enormous central [[space]]. Here is located [[the system]] [[headquarters]] of ''Galantia'', the associate head of this [[powerful]] [[group]] of [[superangels]], being the first commissioned of all the [[ascendant]] [[Evening Stars]]. This is one of the most [[magnificent]] of all the [[administrative]] sectors of ''Jerusem'', even though it is among the more recent constructions. This [[center]] is fifty miles in [[diameter]]. The ''Galantia'' [[headquarters]] is a monolithic cast [[crystal]], wholly [[transparent]]. These [[material]]-[[morontia]] [[crystals]] are greatly [[appreciated]] by both [[morontia]] and [[material]] [[beings]]. The created [[Evening Stars]] exert their [[influence]] all over [[Jerusem]], being [[possessed]] of such extrapersonality [[attributes]]. The entire world has been rendered [[spiritually]] fragrant since so many of their [[activities]] were transferred here from [[Salvington]].

This [[temple]] of [[power]] is one of two sectors on [[Jerusem]] where [[ascending mortals]] and [[midway creatures]] are not permitted. The other one is the dematerializing sector in the area of the [[Material Sons]], a series of [[laboratories]] wherein the [[transport]] [[seraphim]] [[transform]] [[material]] [[beings]] into a [[state]] quite like that of the [[morontia]] order of [[existence]].

46:5.20 5. ''The circles of the [[ascending mortals]]''. The central area of the circles of the [[ascending mortals]] is occupied by a [[group]] of 619 [[planetary]] [[[[memorials]]]] [[representative]] of the [[inhabited worlds]] of [[the system]], and these [[structures]] [[periodically]] undergo extensive [[changes]]. It is the privilege of the mortals from each world to [[agree]], from time to time, upon certain of the alterations or additions to their [[planetary]] [[memorials]]. Many [[changes]] are even now being made in the [[Urantia]] [[structures]]. The [[center]] of these 619 [[temples]] is occupied by a working [[model]] of [[Edentia]] and its many worlds of [[ascendant]] [[culture]]. This [[model]] is forty miles in [[diameter]] and is an [[actual]] reproduction of the [[Edentia]] [[system]], true to the [[original]] in every detail.

46:5.21 Ascenders enjoy their [[Jerusem]] services and take [[pleasure]] in observing the [[techniques]] of other [[groups]]. Everything done in these various circles is open to the full [[observation]] of all [[Jerusem]].

46:5.22 The [[activities]] of such a world are of [[three]] distinct varieties: [[work]], [[progress]], and [[play]]. Stated otherwise, they are: [[service]], [[study]], and [[relaxation]]. The [[composite]] [[activities]] consist of social [[intercourse]], [[group]] [[entertainment]], and [[divine]] [[worship]]. There is great [[educational]] [[value]] in mingling with [[diverse]] [[groups]] of [[personalities]], orders very [[different]] from one's own fellows.

46:5.23 6. ''The circles of the [[courtesy colonies]]''.

This edifice on [[Jerusem]] is sealed with the insignia of [[Michael]], and it bears this inscription: "Undedicated to the [[seventh]] [[stage]] of [[spirit]]—to the [[eternal]] assignment." [[Gabriel]] placed the seal on this [[temple]] of [[mystery]], and none but [[Michael]] can or may break the seal of [[sovereignty]] affixed by the [[Bright and Morning Star]]. Some day you shall look upon this [[silent]] [[temple]], even though you may not penetrate its [[mystery]].
