While he was talking to the mourning woman, suddenly, her face shone like lightening. She cried out and the earth shook in response. She vanished, and in her place was a city being built. The fearful Ezra called out to Uriel to come back and explain this to him.
Uriel did return--and found Ezra lying on the ground. Uriel helped him up and asked why he was so upset. Ezra responded that he felt abandoned because he had gone out to the field as he had been told but that he couldn't comprehend what he had seen.
Uriel explained the vision of the woman--a metaphor of Zion's history. Not only history, but instruction for what to do next. "Stay here. Don't be afraid." Uriel than told Ezra to expect another vision tomorrow.
