Section 4: Visiting About the Temple

Section 5: The Apostles’ Attitude

p1,11: See Topical Study: Genetic Introductions, Mutations, and Evolution: a Urantia Book perspective, and subtopic: “Were the Alpheus twins subnormal?“.

p2Andrew was busy watching some of his associates whom he feared might be led away by their emotions…: The pronoun here is the subject of the verb phrase “might be led away;” not the object of “feared.” To clarify, Andrew feared they might be led away by their emotions; he was not watching his associates, whom he feared. — He did not fear them, but he was afraid they might be led astray.

He was concerned about the attitude of some of the twelve whom he knew were armed with swords…: Should be changed to: He was concerned about the attitude of some of the twelve who he knew were armed with swords… — The pronoun is the subject of the verb “were armed,” not the object of “knew” nor of “were armed;” therefore “who” is the correct form. To illustrate: …some of the twelve whom he knew Peter had armed…[he knew Peter had armed them] …some of the twelve who he knew were armed… [he knew they were armed] The sentence might have been written “He was concerned about the attitude of the twelve, some of whom he knew were armed with swords.” In which case, “whom” would be the object of the prepositional phrase “some of whom,” while the phrase itself would be the subject of “were armed,” but it was not.
