Ariel:
the lion of God. (1.) One of the chief men sent by Ezra to procure Levites for the sanctuary (Ezr 8:16).
(2.) A symbolic name for Jerusalem (Isa 29:1,2,7) as "victorious under God," and in Eze 43:15, 16, for the altar (marg., Heb. 'ariel) of burnt offerings, the secret of Israel's lion-like strength.
The Blue Letter Bible ministry and the BLB Institute hold to the historical, conservative Christian faith, which includes a firm belief in the inerrancy of Scripture. Since the text and audio content provided by BLB represent a range of evangelical traditions, all of the ideas and principles conveyed in the resource materials are not necessarily affirmed, in total, by this ministry.
