1 Enoch 75:3
Study resource: not ScriptureR. H. Charles translation (1917) · public domain
For the signs and the times and the years and the days the angel Uriel showed to me, whom the Lord of glory hath set for ever over all the luminaries of the heaven, in the heaven and in the world, that they should rule on the face of the heaven and be seen on the earth, and be leaders for the day and the night, i.e. the sun, moon, and stars, and all the ministering creatures which make their revolution in all the chariots of the heaven.
This verse’s chapter, studied
The Four Days No One Counts
The leaders set over the stars also oversee four intercalary days that fall outside the ordinary year-count, and Enoch says most people go wrong here because they miss them. Uriel is named as the angel the Lord of glory has permanently placed over all the heaven's luminaries. Uriel then shows Enoch the sun's twelve gates and the many side-windows through which warmth and the stars pass.
- 1 Corinthians 2:8 : Paul calls Jesus "the Lord of glory" — the identical title this chapter uses for the God who set Uriel over the heavens.
