Uriah the Sanhedrist
Not to be confused with Uriel the Sanhedrist.
Sanhedrist of Capernaum. He is part of the group of Pharisees from Capernaum along with Simon, Joachim, and Eli, at whose home he later dines in the company of Jesus.[1]
He probably also attends the dinner at Simon the Pharisee’s during which Mary of Magdala (Magdalene), in tears, comes to pour perfume on the feet of Jesus.
Apostolic Journey
Hostile to Jesus, he one day sets a trap for him on the Sabbath in Capernaum with the man with the paralyzed hand.[2] He is found again at the funeral of Lazarus to mock the absence of a miracle.[3]
His Name
Ouryah means "light of the Eternal" - Historical reference: The husband of Bathsheba whom David had killed - One of the devout Israelites who assisted Ezra when he addressed the people.
