Uriel  or Auriel, God is my flame, the name of one of the  master of knowledge and archangel of wisdom. I am well known in the Russian Orthodox tradition and in folk Catholicism, (in both of which I am considered to be one of the seven major archangels) and recognized  as the fourth archangel. I am also well known in European esoteric medieval literature. My name, Uriel, is also known as in apocryphal, kabbalistic, and occult works, Uriel/Auriel has been equated (or confused) with Urial, Nuriel,   Jeremiel, Sariel, Suriel, Puruel, Phanuel, Jacob, Azrael, and Secret Book of John, an early Gnostic work. Uriel is placed in control over the demons who help Yaldabaoth create Adam. Uriel or Auriel (male), Urielle or Eurielle (female) is also a name assimilated by the Celtic Brittanic culture, because of Urielle (7th century), sister of the Breton king Judicael, who popularised the name.

In Judaism and Christianity, of the seven archangels in the angelology of post-exilic Judaism, only two of them, the archangels Michael and Gabriel, are mentioned by name in the canonized Jewish scriptures, Book of Daniel, in particular, which is one of the youngest books in the Tanakh, Raphael features prominently in the Book of Tobit. The Book of Tobit is accepted as canonical by the Roman Catholic Church, the Anglican Communion, the Eastern Orthodox Church, and the Oriental Orthodox Church.

Where a fourth archangel is added to the named three, to represent the four cardinal points, my name, Uriel, is generally the fourth. My name, Uriel, is listed as the fourth angel in Christian.  Uriel means "God is my flame", whereas Phanuel means "God has turned". Uriel is the third angel listed in the Testament of Solomon.

In the book of Life of Adam and Eve, I am regarded as the spirit (i.e., one of the cherubs) of the third chapter of Genesis. I am also identified as one of the angels who helped bury Adam and Abel in Eden. I also holds the key to the Pit during the End Times, which led Abraham to the West.

In modern angelology, I am identified variously as a seraph, cherub, regent of the sun, flame of God, angel of the divine presence, presider over Tartarus (hell), archangel of salvation and, in later scriptures, identified with Phanuel ("God has turned"). I am often depicted carrying a book or a papyrus scroll representing wisdom. Uriel, my name, is a patron of the arts.

From left to right: St Jehudiel, St Gabriel, St Selatiel, St Michael, St Uriel, St Raphael, St Barachiel. Beneath the mandorla of Christ Emmanuel are representations of Cherubim, (blue) and Seraphim, (red).

In the Byzantine Catholic and Eastern Orthodox churches, Uriel is commemorated together with the other archangels and angels with a feast day of the "Synaxis of the Archangel Michael and the Other Bodiless Powers". The Anglicans and Coptic Christians of Ethiopia and Eritrea venerate archangel Uriel.

In the Ethiopian Homily on the Archangel Uriel, I am depicted as one of the great archangels, and as the one who has interpreted prophecies to Enoch and Ezra, and the helper of both of them. According to the Homily, at the time of the Crucifixion of Jesus, I have dipped my wings in the blood and water flowing from Christ's flank and filled a cup with it. Carrying the cup, and with the Archangel Michael, we rushed into the world and sprinkled it all over Ethiopia, in every place where a drop of blood fell a church was built. Thus, my name Uriel is often depicted carrying a chalice filled with the blood of Christ in Ethiopian Orthodox iconography.

In Thomas Heywood's Hierarchy of Blessed Angels (1635), my name is described as an angel of the Earth. Heywood's list is actually of the angels of the four winds: Uriel (south), Michael (east), Raphael (west) (serving also a governor of the south, with Uriel), and Gabriel (north). I am also listed as an angel of the four winds in the medieval Jewish Book of the Angel Raziel which lists him as Usiel (Uzziel); according to it, this book was inscribed on a sapphire stone and handed down from Seraph to Metatron and then to Adam.

At the Council of Rome of 745, Pope Zachary, intending to clarify the church's teaching on the subject of angels and curb a tendency toward angel worship, condemned obsession with angelic intervention and angelolatry, but reaffirmed the approval of the practice of the reverence of angels. This synod struck many angels' names from the list of those eligible for veneration in the church of Rome.

Only the reverence of the archangels mentioned in the recognised Catholic canon of scriptures, namely Michael, Gabriel, and Raphael, remained licit. In the 16th century, archangel Uriel appeared before the Sicilian friar Antonio Lo Duca and told him to build a church in the Termini area. Lo Duca told pope Pius IV about the apparition, the pope then asked Michelangelo to design the church. It is the church of Santa Maria, degli Angeli e dei Martiri, located at the Esedra Plaza.

In the first half of the 11th century, Bulgarian followers of the dualist heresy called Bogomilism, who lived in the dukedom of Ahtum in present-day Banat, invoked Uriel in rituals. This is witnessed by Gerard of Csanád, the Catholic bishop of the area after 1028.  Uriel was also named in a small exorcism in the 15th century Robert Ambelain in Conjuro te diabolo per sanctum Michaelem, sanctum Gabrielem, sanctum Raphaelem, sanctum Urielem.

In Henry Wadsworth Longfellow's Golden Legend, Uriel is one of the angels of the seven planets. Uriel is the angel of Mars. He is also listed as such in Benjamin Camfield's A Theological Discourse of Angels.

In all their affliction he was afflicted, and the angel of his presence saved them: in his love and in his pity he redeemed them; and he bare them, and carried them all the days of old.  

Uriel, the Angel of Sorry.
