About One New Man Culture
Ancient roots. Living faith. Made in Israel.
One New Man Culture is a house of prayer, research, and biblical restoration. We invite people into the sensory world of the Bible, exploring its fragrances, sounds, garments, and traditions, and the place these hold in a life of faith.
At the center of our faith is Yeshua HaMashiach. Our name draws from the vision of “one new man” in Ephesians 2:15: Jew and Gentile brought together in Him. This vision of unity shapes our purpose, with reverence for the Jewish roots of our faith.
Scripture, Tradition, and Discovery
Our work grows from the study of the Hebrew Scriptures, the New Testament, ancient Jewish sources, and the traditions surrounding prayer and sacred fragrance. We explore the Ketoret, anointing oils, biblical botanicals, the Psalms, sacred garments, the shofar, and the ancient traditions surrounding the Messiah.
Our research reaches into the individual herbs, resins, spices, woods, oils, and other natural materials found within these traditions, exploring their history, symbolism, traditional uses, and methods of preparation.
We approach these sources with care, distinguishing what is written in Scripture from later traditions and our own interpretations. Research, personal experience, and devotion inform our creative work.
For those who wish to go deeper, our Library and Research pages explore the history, sources, traditions, and research behind our work, as well as the work of others who have studied these subjects.
Faith Through the Senses
The biblical world was filled with sensory expression: the sound of the shofar, the fragrance of incense, the pouring of oil, and the wearing of sacred garments.
Inspired by this heritage, our collection brings together incense, oils, candles, soaps, garments, shofars, and other devotional creations. Each has a place in our exploration of fragrance, craftsmanship, symbolism, and remembrance.
Our aromatic creations are offered for their fragrance and devotional significance, without claims to treat illness or produce guaranteed spiritual outcomes.
Made in Israel
Our creations are made in Israel, handcrafted in limited batches rather than mass produced.
We work with carefully selected natural botanicals, resins, herbs, spices, woods, oils, and other materials. Our preparations combine ancient inspired methods with modern techniques, including infusion, maceration, distillation, filtration, settling, and careful blending.
Some preparations require weeks to months before they are ready. Working in limited batches allows us to give attention to the materials, craftsmanship, and traditions behind each creation.
Our Invitation
We invite you to explore the ancient roots of faith, discover the stories behind these traditions, and make space for prayer in everyday life.
Our purpose is to honor the God of Israel, share what we are learning, and bring people together in faith, seeking holiness, unity, and His presence.

About the Founder
One New Man Culture began with its founder, Uriel Levite of the House of Levite, and a lifelong journey through Scripture, Jewish tradition, prayer, sacred fragrance, and the ancient wisdom of Israel.
Uriel's studies have taken him through the Torah, the Hebrew Scriptures, the New Testament, the Mishnah and Gemara, and generations of Jewish interpretation and tradition.
His journey also reached into some of Judaism's deepest mystical writings, including Sefer Yetzirah (the Book of Formation) and the Zohar (the Book of Splendor), exploring ancient teachings surrounding creation, the soul, prayer, holiness, the unseen realm, and concepts such as Chochmah (wisdom) and Binah (understanding).
But his journey has never been simply about books.
He has studied the rhythms found throughout Scripture: seedtime and harvest, biblical seasons and appointed times, sacred space, anointing, incense, the Temple, the shofar, sacred garments, prayer, sound, frequencies, vibrations, and sacred music, exploring their relationship to the healing of the body and soul and the connection between the physical and spiritual worlds.
He questioned deeply along the way.
As a Jew, one of the greatest questions was Yeshua HaMashiach, known to much of the world as Jesus Christ.
What began as questioning became something profoundly personal. Looking back across his life, Uriel came to understand that Yeshua had been revealing Himself to him long before he understood who He was.
After the books, the questions, the traditions, the mystical writings and the searching, the center became clear:
YHWH is the God of Israel.
Yeshua HaMashiach is the Messiah.
That foundation stands at the heart of his work.
Through the House of Levite, Uriel's work takes two expressions:
Biblical Apothecary and Sacred Insight.
The apothecary is where research becomes something tangible. Uriel personally studies and works with the botanicals, resins, spices, woods and oils associated with biblical and ancient Jewish tradition, using infusion, maceration, distillation and other methods to create the aromatic preparations that form part of One New Man Culture.
The Living Balm of Gilead
Among Uriel's most treasured botanical possessions are his own living Balm of Gilead trees, known as Afarsimon. He personally cultivates and studies these precious aromatic plants, incorporating Afarsimon into every sacred oil he creates. His work extends beyond ancient manuscripts and historical research to the living plants themselves, connecting the aromatic heritage of ancient Israel with the work of his own hands.
Discover the history of Afarsimon, see Uriel's living Balm of Gilead trees, and explore his firsthand work with botanicals, resins, oils and distillation on our Sacred Oils page.
Sacred Insight
Sacred Insight is the counsel side of that work: private, prayer-centered spiritual guidance rooted in Scripture, Hebrew prayer, reflection and discernment.
Uriel has offered spiritual guidance and prayer to believers and nonbelievers alike. In his private prayer room, a sacred space set apart for prayer and worship, he maintains an altar of incense dedicated to the ancient tradition of Pitum HaKetoret.
Through the reading of Psalms, sacred prayers and personal intercession, he has accompanied many people on their spiritual journeys, seeking divine mercy, healing, protection and restoration.
Uriel does not publicly broadcast his face online. His identity is not hidden; many people know him personally, have met him and know what he looks like. The choice is spiritual and intentional.
For reasons of holiness and the guarding of the neshamah (soul), he maintains a boundary between what is public and what remains personal. Uriel does not conceal his face in personal, one-on-one encounters. His choice of concealment applies specifically to the public digital space, including social media, websites and other online platforms, where he chooses to let the work, the teaching and the message stand before his image.
The purpose is not to make ancient wisdom the destination. It is to use everything learned along the journey to point back to the God of Israel and to Yeshua HaMashiach.
That is the foundation of the House of Levite.
That is the foundation from which One New Man Culture was born.
