Who is the Angel of the Present?
The Angel of the Present is not explicitly named in canonical Scripture (like Michael or Gabriel), but in spiritual and symbolic teachings—especially in mysticism, apocryphal texts, and personal revelations—the “Angel of the Present” is often described as a guardian of the NOW, a messenger who brings clarity, mindfulness, and divine awareness of what is happening in this very moment.
The "angel of the present" is not directly mentioned by that specific title anywhere in the Apocrypha. However, there are a few places in the Apocrypha (especially in 2 Esdras, also called 4 Ezra) where angelic beings are revealed as messengers who deal with the present time, present age, or are sent to interpret current events or visions.

π 2 Esdras (4 Ezra) – Key Angelic Encounters
> π 2 Esdras 4:1
“And the angel that was sent unto me, whose name was Uriel, gave me an answer...”
Uriel is an archangel sent to the prophet Ezra to explain mysteries about the present world, the coming judgment, and God’s timetable.
While he is not called "the angel of the present," his role is to explain the present condition of the world, why evil prospers, and why the righteous suffer—a concept tied closely to the present age.
---
> π 2 Esdras 7:29-31
“And after these years shall my son Christ die, and all men that have life. And the world shall be turned into the old silence... And after seven days the world, that yet awaketh not again, shall be raised up... and the Most High shall appear upon the seat of judgment, and misery shall pass away...”
The angel gives prophetic insight into future and present ages, helping Ezra understand where we are in time—again, not called the "angel of the present," but acting in that role.
---
> π 2 Esdras 8:52
“For unto you is paradise opened, the tree of life is planted, the time to come is prepared, plenty is made ready, a city is builded, and rest is allowed, yea, perfect goodness and wisdom.”
The angel speaks of what’s prepared for the righteous—showing a contrast between the present world and the one to come.

π️ Symbolic Understanding
The phrase “angel of the present” could be:
A symbolic or interpretive title, given to any angelic being who guides a prophet or seer about the current age (especially Uriel).
Or possibly a later mystical or theological term that emerged in Kabbalistic, Gnostic, or Christian esoteric teachings, rather than being found in the Apocrypha text itself.
---
π Summary
There is no angel literally named "Angel of the Present" in the Apocrypha. However, Uriel, who appears in 2 Esdras, acts in that capacity—explaining the present age, answering the prophet's questions about the state of the world, and revealing divine mysteries related to now and the time to come.
