77:1.1 The ''primary midwayers'' have their [[genesis]] in a [[unique]] interassociation of the [[material]] and the [[spiritual]] on [[Urantia]]. We know of the [[existence]] of similar [[creatures]] on other worlds and in other [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_45 systems], but they originated by [[Different|dissimilar]] [[techniques]].
77:1.2 It is well always to bear in [[mind]] that the [[successive]] [[bestowals]] of the [[Sons of God]] on an [[evolving planet]] produce marked [[changes]] in the [[spiritual]] [[economy]] of the realm and sometimes so [[modify]] the workings of the interassociation of [[spiritual]] and [[material]] [[agencies]] on a [[planet]] as to [[create]] situations indeed [[difficult]] of [[understanding]]. The [[status]] of the [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_50#50:3._THE_PRINCE.27S_CORPOREAL_STAFF one hundred corporeal members] of Prince [[Caligastia]]' s staff [[illustrates]] just such a [[unique]] interassociation: As [[ascendant]] [[morontia]] [[citizens]] of [[Jerusem]] they were supermaterial [[creatures]] without [[reproductive]] [[prerogatives]]. As [[Descending Sons|descendant planetary ministers]] on [[Urantia]] they were [[material]] [[sex]] creatures capable of [[procreating]] material [[offspring]] (as some of them later did). What we cannot satisfactorily [[explain]] is how these [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_50#50:3._THE_PRINCE.27S_CORPOREAL_STAFF one hundred] could [[function]] in the [[parental]] role on a supermaterial level, but that is exactly what happened. A supermaterial (nonsexual) [[liaison]] of a [[male]] and a [[female]] member of the [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_50#50:3._THE_PRINCE.27S_CORPOREAL_STAFF corporeal staff] resulted in the [[appearance]] of the first-born of the ''primary midwayers''.
77:1.3 It was [[immediately]] [[discovered]] that a [[creature]] of this order, midway between the [[mortal]] and [[angelic]] levels, would be of great [[service]] in carrying on the affairs of [[the Prince]]'s [[headquarters]], and each couple of the [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_50#50:3._THE_PRINCE.27S_CORPOREAL_STAFF corporeal staff] was accordingly granted permission to produce a similar [[being]]. This [[effort]] resulted in the first [[group]] of fifty ''midway creatures''.
77:1.4 After a year of [[observing]] the [[work]] of this [[unique]] [[group]], the [[Planetary Prince]] authorized the reproduction of [[midwayers]] without restriction. This [[plan]] was carried out as long as the [[power]] to create continued, and the [[original]] corps of 50,000 was accordingly brought into [[being]].
77:1.5 A period of one-half year [[intervened]] between the production of each [[midwayer]], and when one thousand such [[beings]] had been born to each couple, no more were ever forthcoming. And there is no [[explanation]] available as to why this [[power]] was [[exhausted]] upon the [[appearance]] of the one thousandth [[offspring]]. No amount of further [[experimentation]] ever resulted in anything but failure.
77:1.6 These [[creatures]] [[constituted]] the [[intelligence]] corps of [[the Prince]]'s [[administration]]. They ranged far and wide, [[studying]] and [[observing]] the world [[races]] and rendering other invaluable services to [[the Prince]] and his staff in the [[work]] of [[influencing]] [[human]] [[society]] remote from the [[planetary headquarters]].
77:1.7 This [[regime]] continued until the [[tragic]] days of the [[planetary rebellion]], which ensnared a little over four fifths of the ''primary midwayers''. The [[loyal]] corps entered the [[service]] of the [[Melchizedek receivers]], [[functioning]] under the titular [[leadership]] of [[Van]] until the days of [[Adam]].
