163:6.1 On Friday, December 30, while [[Jesus]] was away in the near-by hills with [[Peter, the Apostle|Peter]], [[James, the Apostle|James]], and [[John, the Apostle|John]], the seventy [[messengers]] were arriving by couples, accompanied by numerous [[believers]], at the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pella,_Jordan Pella] headquarters. All seventy were assembled at the [[teaching]] site about five o'clock when [[Jesus]] returned to the camp. The evening meal was delayed for more than an hour while these [[enthusiasts]] for the [[gospel]] of [[the kingdom]] related their [[experiences]]. [[David Zebedee|David]]'s [[messengers]] had brought much of this news to [[the apostles]] during previous weeks, but it was truly [[inspiring]] to hear these newly [[ordained]] [[teachers]] of the [[gospel]] [[personally]] tell how their [[message]] had been [[received]] by [[hungry]] [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jews Jews] and [[gentiles]]. At last [[Jesus]] was able to see men going out to spread the [[Gospel|good news]] without his [[personal]] [[presence]]. [[The Master]] now knew that he could leave this world without seriously hindering the [[progress]] of [[the kingdom]].

163:6.2 When the seventy related how " even the [[devils]] were subject "[https://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Gospel_of_Luke#Chapter_10] to them, they referred to the [[wonderful]] [[cures]] they had wrought in the cases of [[victims]] of nervous disorders. Nevertheless, there had been a few cases of real [[Possessed|spirit possession]] relieved by these ministers, and referring to these, [[Jesus]] said: " It is not strange that these [https://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_77#77:7._THE_REBEL_MIDWAYERS disobedient minor spirits] should be subject to you, seeing that I beheld [[Satan]] falling as lightning from heaven.

163:6.4 When [[Jesus]] had thus spoken to [[the Father]], he turned aside to speak to his [[apostles]] and ministers: " Blessed are the eyes which see and the ears which hear these things. Let me say to you that many [[prophets]] and many of the great men of the [[past]] [[Epoch|ages]] have [[desired]] to behold what you now see, but it was not granted them. And many [[generations]] of the [[children]] of [[light]] yet to come will, when they hear of these things, [[envy]] you who have heard and seen them.

163:6.5 Then, speaking to all the [[disciples]], he said: " You have heard how many [[cities]] and villages have received the good news of [[the kingdom]], and how my ministers and [[teachers]] have been received by both the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jews Jew] and the [[gentile]].
