Uel

Uel was a priest who came from Bani's family. He lived during the time when the Jewish people had returned from being forced to live in Babylon (called the exile). Ezra, a Jewish leader, told Uel and others to divorce their non-Jewish wives because these marriages went against God's law (Ezra 10:34).
