Will The Real Uriel Please Stand Up?, The Interpolated and 'False' Revelations to Dee & Kelley Options

I was wondering if anyone would care to comment on the revelations received by Dee and Kelley that were later declared by Uriel, Michael and the E.E.s to be deceptions by meddling spirits. How were they able to interfere and masquerade in the first place? And why did the 'true' angels often wait a while before declaring previous revelations false introducing the 'corrections'? How is one to decide, if at all, which angels and revelations are 'true' and which are 'false'?

There's a really interesting escapade in the Appendix to the Five Books of Mystery in which, in the middle of one of Uriel's revelations, a palace and a man appears who tells Dee the whole thing is deception:

"How pitifull a thing it is, when the wise, are deluded?...I come hither, for the desyre I haue to do thee good.... As truely as the Lord liueth, all that is done, is lies."

Interestingly, it is Dee and not Uriel who rebukes the guy at length, and he eventually dissapears seemingly more out of frustration than spiritual banishment (compared to, say, when Uriel made Lundrumguffa his bitch at the beginning of the revelations). Before this spirit, who Dee decided was "evidently" Satanic appeared, Uriel had a little team meeting and said "Be it so, because powre is given unto him". Whether this figure was a satanic tempter, or sincerely trying to lead them away from deception, apparently he did so by the leave of a power greater than Uriel's.

Thoughts?

All I can say is that I'm glad you're asking questions and thinking through some of the things you've read. It seems alot of people in the Enochian community gloss over them, ignore them, and or downplay experiences like this.
