"24 - 48 hours after you submit a request for an additional name
server, it will be in the rotation for authoritative lookups..."
Note that this is kind part order of magnitude, part worst case to
keep you from complaining when nothing is wrong.
"The order of the nameservers is not relevant."
Right, because almost everything sorts them anyway.

I have configured BIND to make the nameserver running on
jupiter.obliqueuniverse.org "type master" for obliqueuniverse.org, and
the primary zone file lists jupiter.obliqueuniverse.org as SOA. . I
don't have another host to run a slave server, so apparently I must
use one of my ISP's nameserver's as backup server. The above advisory
states that *all* the servers that I list are authoritative and are
used "in rotation". But it seems that this would require that my
ISP's nameserver (my backup) would have to be configured as slave for
my zone.
Yes, you should definitely arrange with your ISP to configure several
of their nameservers as slaves for your zone. You should also add NS
records for those nameservers as soon as they're set up.
Is this correct?
Yep.
Many thanks to you (and to you, Maxwell) for taking time to bring me
up to speed!
You're welcome.
