In the second Urantia Foundation printing, "forego" was changed to "forgo."
Although the latter is etymologically preferable, the former has been in
use for over 400 years and leads to no confusion; it has therefore been
restored in this edition.
Original Paragraph:
P1924:3, 177:3.7
While all of this was going on at the camp, in Jerusalem the chief priests and
elders were amazed that Jesus did not return to address the multitudes. True,
the day before, when he left the temple, he had said, "I leave your house to
you desolate." But they could not understand why he would be willing to forego
the great advantage which he had built up in the friendly attitude of the crowds.
While they feared he would stir up a tumult among the people, the Master's last
words to the multitude had been an exhortation to conform in every reasonable
manner with the authority of those "who sit in Moses' seat." But it was a busy
day in the city as they simultaneously prepared for the Passover and perfected
their plans for destroying Jesus.
