138:6.1 The next week was [[devoted]] to a program of [[intense]] [[training]]. Each day the six new [[apostles]] were put in the hands of their respective nominators for a thoroughgoing review of all they had [[learned]] and [[experienced]] in [[preparation]] for the work of [[the kingdom]]. The older apostles carefully reviewed, for the benefit of the younger six, [[Jesus]]' teachings up to that hour. Evenings they all assembled in [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zebedee Zebedee]'s [[garden]] to [[receive]] [[Jesus]]' instruction.d

138:6.2 It was at this [[time]] that [[Jesus]] [[established]] the mid-week holiday for [[rest]] and [[recreation]]. And they pursued this [[plan]] of [[relaxation]] for one day each week throughout the remainder of his material life. As a general rule, they never prosecuted their regular [[activities]] on Wednesday. On this weekly holiday [[Jesus]] would usually take himself away from them, saying: " My [[children]], go for a day of [[play]]. [[Rest]] yourselves from the arduous labors of [[the kingdom]] and [[enjoy]] the refreshment that comes from reverting to your former [[vocations]] or from [[discovering]] new sorts of recreational [[activity]]. " While [[Jesus]], at this period of his earth life, did not actually require this day of [[rest]], he [[conformed]] to this [[plan]] because he knew it was best for his [[human]] associates. Jesus was the [[teacher]]—[[the Master]]; his associates were his [[pupils]]—[[disciples]].

138:6.4 In these early teachings [[Jesus]] sought to avoid [[controversies]] with his [[apostles]] as far as possible excepting those involving wrong [[concepts]] of [[Universal Father|his Father]] in heaven. In all such matters he never [[hesitated]] to correct [[erroneous]] [[beliefs]]. There was just one [[motive]] in [[Jesus]]' postbaptismal life on [[Urantia]], and that was a better and truer [[revelation]] of his [[Paradise Father]]; he was the [[pioneer]] of the new and better way to [[God]], the way of [[faith]] and [[love]]. Ever his exhortation to [[the apostles]] was: " Go seek for the sinners; find the downhearted and [[comfort]] the [[anxious]].

He was [[engaged]] in a mission of enormous [[dramatic]] [[possibilities]], but he insisted on going about [[Universal Father|his Father]]'s business in the most [[quiet]] and undramatic [[manner]]; he [[studiously]] avoided all display of [[power]].
