Usiel (Uziel, Uzziel) - (“strength of God”). in the cabala generally, as in Targum Onkeles and Jonathan, Usiel is an angel that fell, and is therefore evil; he was among those who wedded human wives and begat giants. Of the 10 unholy sefiroth, Usiel is listed 5th. In the Book of the Angel Raziel, Usiel (Uzziel) is among the 7 angels before the throne of God and among 9 set over the 4 winds. Usiel replaces Uriel in the reprint English translation of Verus Jesuitarum Libellus (“True Magical Work of the Jesuits”). The Key to Faust’s Threefold Harrowing of Hell (otherwise known as a Key to Black Raven) contains a general conjuration to Usiel and a list of his adjutant princes. Finally, according to Milton, Usiel is a good angel, of the order of virtues, a lieutenant of Gabriel’s in the fighting in Heaven at the time of Satan’s defection. http://www.megadriel.com/bios/u.html Usiel: “the Lord is strength”; from the Book of Enoch http://www.kheperu.org/other/other2.html http://angelsreading.com/usiel/ Uzziel 1 Uzziel This article is about the biblical figure. For the Mishnah rabbi, see Jonathan ben Uzziel. ʿÛzîʾēl, meaning El is my strength or God is my strength[1]) was ,עוּזִיאֵל :According to the Torah, Uzziel (Hebrew the father of Mishael, Elzaphan, and Zithri, and was a son of Kohath and grandson of Levi, consequently being the brother of Amram and uncle of Aaron, Miriam, and Moses. Uzziel is portrayed in the text as the founder of the Uzzielite faction of Levites; however, despite Uzziel supposedly being Kohath's son, and Elzaphan's father, on some occasions the Book of Chronicles treats the Uzzielites as being quite distinct from the descendants of Kohath, and from those of Elzaphan. No further details of Uzziel's life are given by the Bible, and according to bible critics, the genealogy for Levi's descendants is actually an aetiological myth, reflecting popular perception of the connections between different Levite factions;[2] textual "scholars" attribute the genealogy to the Book of Generations, a document originating from a similar religiopolitical group and date to the priestly source.[3] References [1] Cheyne and Black, Encyclopedia Biblica [2] Peake's commentary on the Bible [3] Richard Elliott Friedman, Who Wrote The Bible?
