Uriel/ˈʊəriəl/, Auriel (Hebrew: אוּרִיאֵלʾŪrīʾēl, "El/God is my flame";[5] Greek: ΟὐριήλOúriḗl; Coptic: ⲟⲩⲣⲓⲏⲗOuriēl;[6] Italian: Uriele;[7] Geʽez and Amharic: ዑራኤልʿUraʾēl[8] or ዑርኤልʿUriʾēl)[9] or Oriel is the name of one of the archangels who is mentioned in the post-exilic rabbinic tradition and in certain Christian traditions. He is well known in the Russian Orthodox tradition and in folk Catholicism (in both of which he is considered to be one of the seven major archangels) and recognised in the Anglican Church as the fourth archangel. He is also well known in European esoteric medieval literature. Uriel is also known as a master of knowledge and archangel of wisdom.
In apocryphal, kabbalistic, and occult works, Uriel/Auriel has been equated (or confused) with Urial,[10] Nuriel, Uryan, Jeremiel, Vretil, Sariel, Suriel, Puruel, Phanuel, Jacob, Azrael, and Raphael.
In the Secret Book of John, an early Gnostic work, Uriel is placed in control over the demons who help Yaldabaoth create Adam.[11]
Uriel, Auriel or Oriel (male) / Urielle, Eurielle or Orielle (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.
