Summary[edit source | hide | hide all]
Fifth Vision of Ezra by Nicolaes de Bruyn, 1613. The archangel Uriel shows the exiled prophet Ezra, in vision, a latter-day "little kingdom" of 'righteous ones' that transforms, like Daniel's small stone, into a great "Mount Zion" ("graven without hands"), rolling forth to fill "the whole earth". Its righteous 'forest lion' leader comes roaring out of a wood, speaking with a human voice to "the eagle ... rebuking her for her unrighteousness" and announcing the end of the Age and of all evil. "This lion," says Uriel, "is the Anointed One, whom the Most High has kept unto the end of days" (Ezra 12:31) — a prophet, priest and king who sits in mighty judgement among his own people.
