Remiel, also known as
Jeremiel (
Hebrew: יְרַחְמְאֵל
Yəraḥməʾēl,
Tiberian: Yăraḥmē̆ʾēl, "God shall have mercy";
Greek: Ρεμειήλ), is mentioned in
2 Baruch as he who "presides over true visions" (55:3) and listed as one of seven Holy Angels in
1 Enoch 20:8. In this chapter, he is described as "one of the holy angels, whom God set over those who rise". Remiel is the archangel of
hope and credited with two tasks: he is responsible for divine visions, and he guides the souls of the faithful into
Heaven. He is called Jeremiel and
Uriel in various translations of
4 Esdras. ==See also==
