33:6.1 [[Gabriel]] is the chief [[executive]] and actual [[administrator]] of [[Nebadon]]. [[Michael]]'s [[absence]] from [[Salvington]] in no way [[interferes]] with the orderly conduct of universe affairs. During the [[absence]] of [[Michael]], as recently on the mission of reunion of [[Orvonton]] [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_21#21:5._RELATION_OF_MASTER_SONS_TO_THE_UNIVERSE Master Sons] on [[Paradise]], [[Gabriel]] is the regent of the universe. At such times Gabriel always seeks the [[counsel]] of [[Immanuel of Salvington]] regarding all major problems.

33:6.2 The [[Father Melchizedek]] is [[Gabriel]]'s first assistant. When the [[Bright and Morning Star]] is absent from [[Salvington]], his [[responsibilities]] are assumed by this [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_35#35:1._THE_FATHER_MELCHIZEDEK original Melchizedek Son].

33:6.3 The various subadministrations of the [[universe]] have assigned to them certain special domains of [[responsibility]]. While, in general, a [[the System|system]] [[government]] looks after the welfare of its [[planets]], it is more particularly concerned with the [[physical]] [[status]] of living [[beings]], with [[biologic]] problems. In turn, the [[Most Highs|constellation rulers]] pay especial [[attention]] to the social and [[governmental]] conditions prevailing on the [[different]] [[planets]] and [[the System|systems]]. A [[constellation]] [[government]] is chiefly exercised over unification and [[stabilization]]. Still higher up, the universe rulers are more occupied with the [[spiritual]] [[status]] of the realms.

33:6.4 [[Ambassadors]] are appointed by [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_33#33:7._THE_COURTS_OF_NEBADON judicial] [[decree]] and [[represent]] [[universes]] to other universes. Consuls are [[representatives]] of [[constellations]] to one another and to the [[universe]] [[headquarters]]; they are appointed by [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_33#33:8._THE_LEGISLATIVE_AND_EXECUTIVE_FUNCTIONS legislative] [[decree]] and [[function]] only within the confines of the [[local universe]]. Observers are commissioned by [[executive]] decree of a [[System Sovereign]] to [[represent]] that system to other systems and at the [[constellation]] capital, and they, too, [[function]] only within the confines of the [[local universe]].

33:6.5 From [[Salvington]], [[broadcasts]] are [[simultaneously]] directed to the [[constellation]] [[headquarters]], [[the system]] [[headquarters]], and to [[individual]] [[planets]]. All higher orders of [[celestial]] [[beings]] are able to utilize this [[service]] for [[communication]] with their fellows scattered throughout the [[universe]]. The [[universe broadcast]] is extended to all [[inhabited worlds]] regardless of their [[spiritual]] [[status]]. Planetary intercommunication is denied only those worlds under [[spiritual]] [[quarantine]].

33:6.6 [[Constellation]] [[broadcasts]] are periodically sent out from the [[headquarters]] of the constellation by the chief of the [[Constellation Fathers]].

33:6.7 [[Chronology]] is reckoned, computed, and rectified by a special [[group]] of [[beings]] on [[Salvington]]. The [[standard]] day of [[Nebadon]] is [[equal]] to eighteen days and six hours of [[Urantia]] time, plus two and one-half minutes. The [[Nebadon]] year consists of a segment of the [[time]] of universe swing in [[relation]] to the [[Uversa]] [[circuit]] and is [[equal]] to one hundred days of standard universe time, about five years of [[Urantia]] time.

33:6.8 [[Nebadon]] time, [[broadcast]] from [[Salvington]], is the [[standard]] for all [[constellations]] and [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_45 systems] in this local universe. Each [[constellation]] conducts its affairs by [[Nebadon]] [[time]], but the systems maintain their own [[chronology]], as do the [[individual]] [[planets]].

33:6.9 The day in [[Satania]], as reckoned on [[Jerusem]], is a little less (1 hour, 4 minutes, 15 seconds) than three days of [[Urantia]] time. These times are generally known as [[Salvington]] or universe time, and [[Satania]] or system time. [[Standard]] time is universe time.
