Uriel orders Ezra to fast and mourn:
Ezra is a Priest and teacher of the Law who led to a return of exiles to Israel to reestablish temple and worship;Â And he came to Jerusalem in the fifth month, which was in the seventh year of the king.Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Ezra 7:8
Uriel instructs Ezra in Godâ€™s ways;Â Ezra questions Uriel: â€œWhy do wicked nations prosper while Israel suffers?â€Â Uriel responds:Â Weigh for me the weight of fire, or measure for me a measure of wind, or call back for me the day that is past.Â Ezra admits he cannot do so.Â Uriel responds:Â â€œYou cannot understand the things which you have grown up; how then can your mind comprehend the way of the Most High?â€Â Ezra corrected the intermarriage of Priests:
Then were assembled unto me every one that trembled at the words of the God of Israel, because of the transgression of those that had been carried away, and I sat astonished until the evening sacrifice. Ezra 9:4
Uriel is in charge of Celestial Lights;Â the Fiery area where rebellious angels are imprisoned.Â Uriel interprets his vision of the Heavenly Jerusalem.
