Drawing almost entirely from Gnostic cosmogony, Kabbalistic cosmogony holds that the universe was brought into being by divine emanations: namely, the sefirot (plural form of sefirah, a Kabbalistic concept equivalent to the Gnostic aeons), which make up what Kabbalists call The Tree of Emanation, better known as The Tree of Life.

There are ten different sefirot, and all of them fall into one of two main categories: four belong to the creation of the universe (cosmogony), six (the same number as there are Infinity Stones) to its inner workings (cosmology).

Each sefirot, or emanation, has a name; their names are quite similar to those of Marvel’s Infinity Stones, such as Sefer Hokhmah (wisdom), Sefer Binah (understanding), Sefer Gevurah (strength) or even Sefer Yesod Olam [ii] (the foundation of the world).

The stones in the Marvel Universe are coveted by an evil deity called Thanos, who we find sitting on a throne located on the edge of the universe. His throne looks like a slab of rock from a destroyed planet. The character’s creator was inspired by Thanatos, the Greek god of death. Thanatos was an infernal and dreaded deity who, to the ancient Greeks, evoked destruction.

Thanos is the most powerful being in the universe, a destroyer capable of annihilating entire planets. He is a Titan (an obvious reference to the Titans in Greek mythology) of the race of Eternals. Thanos’ destructive and genocidal actions are motivated by his love for, and devoted worship of, the feminine incarnation of death, Mistress Death, whom he tries to impress.

His purpose is to become a Supreme Being whose power resembles that of the Demiurge, the evil god of Gnosticism. The Demiurge is at once evil incarnate and the figure responsible for fashioning and maintaining the physical universe, or material world, as a whole. Thanos seeks to become a sort of “prince of this world”…

The Demiurge is also present in the Talmud and Kabbalah under the name Metatron, an archangel who is unique in his ability to stand before God and sit on His throne. Kabbalists view Metatron [iii] as a creation that came into being at the same time as the emanation of the inner heavenly spheres (like the Demiurge in Gnosticism). According to them, “Let there be light”, the verse from Genesis, refers to the “formation of the light of the intellect in the shape of the Metatron”…

A great many masonic lodges probably identify this Demiurge, Metatron, or immanent deity, with the Great Architect of the Universe.

Thanos is not the only destructive deity in the Marvel Universe. On May 18, 2016, the movie X-Men: Apocalypse was released in France. Apocalypse (deriving from the Greek word unveiling, in reference to the end times) is presented as the chief of all mutants, the most powerful of them all. After being buried in the basement of a pyramid several millennia ago, Apocalypse, who had ruled over ancient Egypt as a living god, awakens in the present only to find that “the weak rule the earth” and wreak havoc in his place.
