The Urantia Book
The Uversa Press text, read together with the Uversa Press index. Every paragraph carries in its margin the index entries that cite it, so the index works in both directions at once: from a concept into the text, and from any passage back to everything the index has to say about it.

About this edition
The text is the Uversa Press edition of The Urantia Book, published by the Urantia Book Fellowship: 197 papers in 1,626 sections and 14,586 paragraphs, each with a reference of its own. This site shows the words of Jesus in red, in 1,122 paragraphs; the printed book does not. The edition's textual apparatus notes every place where the text differs from the first printing of 1955, 180 in all, and gives the 1955 reading beneath each.
The index is the Uversa Press index, revised with numerous corrections for the third edition, 2026, where it is bound together with the text in a single volume. Its 39,885 references, reaching 50,772 places in the text, compiled and checked over many years, are what make the margins of this reader possible. The printed volume remains the book; this is an additional way to move through it.
