Amphitheater

In the Urantia Book

It is a typical public place of the Roman Empire where shows and games were offered. Some amphitheaters mentioned in The Urantia Book are:

• * at Lake Urmia, a building for lectures dedicated to the “spirit of religion”, where Jesus spent some time 134:3.1
• * in Caesarea, with capacity for 20,000 sat spectators. Here Jesus attended a performance 130:2.1
• * in the Decapolis, in Scythopolis, where Jesus and his father attended the annual athletic games 123:5.12 124:3.7
• * after attending the Scythopolis anphiteater, young Jesus suggested his father Joseph building a similar amphitheater in Nazareth, causing the anger of his father 124:3.8-9

In architectural spheres there are constructions of the same type:

• * on Edentia, the amphiteater encircling the sea of glass, the receiving area of Edentia 43:1.7
• * on Jerusem, the amphiteater encircling the broadcast-receiving station, with seats for five billion 46:3.1-3 46:5.30 53:5.6
