Among the most mysterious characters in the Old Testament is an angel named Metatron. It is not mentioned in the classical Bible, but, as you know, the Old Testament is based on the text of the Torah - the main book of Judaism. And the Torah scholars and Kabbalists honor Metatron as the first among the archangels. Researchers believe that the name has Greek roots. "Metatronios" means "standing beside God's throne (throne)." This emphasizes the high status of the archangel and his closeness to the Lord. Some theologians believe that this is not a proper name, but a position in the heavenly hierarchy.

Who is Metatron
Typically, in Hebrew mythology, Metatron is present as a nameless angel. Some believe that through him the Lord commanded Moses to lead the campaign to the Promised Land. During the wanderings of the Israelite people in the desert, he also appeared in the form of a pillar of fire. It is also believed that the angel Metatron stopped the patriarch Abraham when he was about to sacrifice his son.
According to kabbalistic texts, Metatron is represented by two hypostases: light and dark. His light appearance is associated with the angel Michael, whose task is to inspire people to search for truth. The dark part of Metatron is represented by the fallen angel Samael, who embodies human vices and base passions.
This archangel is also called the Prince of the Face. The title emphasizes the exceptional position of Metatron in the host of angels and his honorable right to see the Face of God.
In the text "The Revelation of Abraham" reveals to the patriarch his real name - Jehoel. To put it simply, this means little Yahweh (or Jehovah - in Judaism, this is what the Lord is called). The name Jehoel, thus, directly indicates that Metatron fulfills the duties of God's deputy and his main assistant. Nothing happens without his knowledge. He is initiated into God's plans and knows all his thoughts.
Metatron and the Tree of Life
The image of Metatron is inextricably linked with the Tree of Life, which grows in the midst of paradise. Its fruits make it possible to live forever. In Kabbalah, the Tree of Life is a diagram that illustrates the structure of the universe.
Metatron in this scheme occupies a position between the world of people and the kingdom of angels. Metatron combines the best divine and human qualities. Thus, he serves as an intermediary between humanity and the Creator.
In addition, in the parables of Solomon, the Tree of Life is called the wisdom that the Lord gives to man: "She is the tree of life for those who acquire her." And wisdom comes to people precisely through Metatron.
Metatron's tasks include maintaining a balance between light and darkness in the human world. Since they have freedom of choice, the energy of Metatron is constantly changing. The righteous by their actions feed the Tree of Life, the sinners by their unseemly deeds take away its strength.
Metatron and the people
The archangel plays the role of a mediator between God and the human world. He provides justice and mercy on Earth. Through him, as a rule, the Creator communicates his will to the prophets. Metatron serves as the spokesman for the Lord's plans. In periods when people forget God's commandments, begin to massively sin and commit iniquity, Metatron comes to Earth to admonish those who have gone astray. And those who persist in their delusions are severely punished by the angel.
In the earthly hierarchy, Metatron stands above all kings, rulers and priests. He has the power to wipe out an entire state from the earth in an instant. At the Heavenly Court, Metatron takes the lead. It is he who determines the degree of man's sinfulness, but at the same time he takes into account the good deeds performed on Earth.
Archangel Metatron helped Moses lead the people of Israel through the wilderness. He also transmitted the wise teachings of Kabbalah. Some theologians believe that Metatron himself came to Earth in the image of Jesus Christ.
Metatron in the third Book of Enoch
The third book of Enoch, which belongs to the category of apocryphal, tells the story of a Jewish righteous man named Enoch, who lived long before the Flood. The forces of darkness prevailed on Earth at that time. People indulged in sin, displeasing the Lord.
Enoch alone did not participate in the general madness and was faithful to God. For this he was awarded the ascension to Heaven during his lifetime. The angel Anafiel brought Enoch to God in a chariot of fire. However, Enoch's arrival at God's throne caused a murmur among the angels. They could not understand for what merits an ordinary person was admitted before the eyes of the Lord. And then God endowed Enoch with divine qualities, turning the righteous into the archangel Metatron. The newly minted assistant even received a throne similar to the throne of the Lord.
Enoch was endowed with many qualities, thanks to which he became the first among the archangels: divine wisdom, mercy, meekness, omniscience, love and other attributes of God. All the secrets of the universe were revealed to Enoch, so that from now on he had the power of the Creator himself and even received the right to judge the angels.
The apocrypha, however, speaks of an unpleasant incident that occurred later in the palaces of God. This incident explains why the name of Metatron disappeared from the canonical scriptures. So, the righteous man Acher who went to heaven, seeing two thrones, interpreted it as a dual power. This opinion caused the wrath of the Lord, which led to the expulsion of Acher. And Enoch, who fell under the hot hand, received 60 fiery lashes.
Metatron in The Zohar
From the ancient sources where Metatron is mentioned, one can name the book "Zohar" (also "Zohar" or "Zohar"). This source claims that the moment Adam tasted the apple from the Tree of Knowledge, he lost his divine nature. However, the spark of God that Adam lost did not disappear without a trace. Subsequently, this element of the Creator entered the righteous Enoch. But the laws of the universe do not allow an ordinary mortal to carry divine perfection in himself. Therefore, the Lord took Enoch alive to Heaven and turned him into an angel, who became Metatron.
Metatron's cube and its meaning
There is a section in Kabbalah devoted to sacred geometry. This occult teaching explores figures and symbols in various cultural and spiritual traditions. The secret science also considers measurements, and this concept includes not only length, width and height, but also the location of galaxies on the scale of the Universe and the structure of spiritual space, which is multidimensional. Kabbalists consider Metatron the creator of sacred geometry and see him as the patron saint of astronomy and astrology.
Metatron's Cube is one of the key figures in sacred geometry. This symbol contains the basic forms created by God. All other forms that exist in the universe are derived from Metatron's Cube. Thus, the basic elements of the Cube serve as a building material for the entire universe, including the solar system.
It is recommended to start acquaintance with sacred geometry with the study of Metatron's Cube. This sacred figure serves as an object of intent contemplation, which allows consciousness to penetrate the deep essence of things. In addition, this practice teaches you to shape your ideas.
Metatron's Cube serves as a powerful protective amulet. The amulet with the image of a sacred symbol protects the owner from attacks of hostile forces and negative human emotions. Also, the owner of the talisman acquires over time the possibilities associated with extrasensory perception.
The essence of the project "32 impulses from Metatron"
There is a group of people who have set themselves the goal of creating a new reality on the planet that will provide all the inhabitants of the Earth with conditions of grace and spiritual prosperity. Initially the project was called "33 impulses from Metatron", then the figure was changed to 32.
The participants dedicated their lives to self-improvement and dissemination of knowledge. These people are distinguished by their unlimited faith in the Lord. In Metatron, they see a spiritual mentor and turn to him for support.
The project's activities are carried out through a special site, which contains useful materials necessary for spiritual growth. Periodically, the organization "32 Impulses from Metatron" organizes webinars and field sessions. Beginners are offered special holograms that cleanse the space around a person, increasing the frequency of his vibrations. There is also a liberation of consciousness from negative programs.
In collective services, participants connect to the Creator's energy field and form new programs, laying the foundation for a wonderful future.
In Russia, each project participant makes a monthly contribution of 333 rubles. The funds are spent on the operation of the Internet resource, holding seminars and webinars, as well as on printed materials.

A little about the author:
Evgeny Tukubaev The right words and your faith are the keys to success in a perfect ritual. I will provide you with information, but its implementation directly depends on you. But don't worry, a little practice and you will succeed!One of the "heavenly intermediaries." The term "Metatron" includes the meanings of guardian, master, messenger, mediator; he is the cause of Epiphany in the sensible world. Metatron is endowed with not only the kind of Mercy, but also the kind of Justice; he is not only the “Great Priest” (Cohen ha-gadol), but also the “Grand Duke” (Sar ha-gadol), and the “leader of the heavenly servants”, that is, he personifies both the principle of royal power and the basis of priestly or pontifical power, which corresponds to its function of "mediator". Two types Dark view personifies the "spirit of this world" in the lowest sense [clarify] .
Metatron lives in the seventh heaven and is the tallest angel, with the exception of Anafiel. The Zohar describes its size as "equal in width to the whole world." In rabbinic literature, this is how the size of Adam was described before his fall.
Metatron is the first, and he is the last, of the ten archangels of the Briatic world. If we talk about seniority, then Metatron is the youngest angel in the heavenly kingdom. Various roles were attributed to him: the king of angels, the prince of the divine face or presence, the heavenly chancellor, the angel of the Covenant, chief among the ministering angels. Metatron-identified with Jehovah (Yahweh-Iacchus)
Metatron is the highest in the host of angels and in the world of disembodied heavenly forces, he has no equal and he stands directly before the throne of the Creator. The light emanating from him surpasses the light of all other celestial beings, and without his permission, no angel does anything. Part of the radiance from the Heavenly Throne passed to him, and he knows all the secret decisions of the Father, who is in Heaven (cf. Yalkut, 44).
According to the Third (Hebrew) Book of Enoch, Metatron is the patriarch Enoch, taken to heaven, a "young" Angel, later than others who appeared next to God, but already the Head of Angels (Third Book of Enoch, ch. 40 \\ another title of this book: "Book of Enoch , written down by Rabbi Ishmael, the High Priest "\\, further about Enoch in this book is mentioned in chapter 12). (See: "Books of Enoch. Secrets of the earth and heaven." EKSMO. Moscow. 2003, p. 35, etc.)
Etymology
The most widely accepted interpretation is that "Metatron" ( μεταθρονιος , metatronios) - "standing beside the Throne [of God]", or "occupying the throne next to the Throne of God." The throne is indeed mentioned in the later, third, the book of Enoch, but there is not the slightest hint that its author saw any connection between the name of the archon and his throne. This etymological interpretation is doubtful, since there is no word metatronios in the Greek language, and it is highly unlikely that this Greek expression was formed or invented by the Jews.
In Talmudic literature, the word "throne" (Greek. θρόνος ) is never used in place of its Hebrew equivalent. On the contrary, the doubling "t" and the ending "- ron" are found in many mystical names in these texts. It is likely that "-on" and "-ron" could be stable and typical components of secret names, and not semantic syllables. It is possible that the term "Metatron" was chosen for purely symbolic use and is one of the many secret names that abound in the Hehaloth texts. The word, originally, apparently, served as one of the synonyms of the name Yahoel as vox mystica, eventually completely replaced it.

Metatron's story
Vladyka Metatron is mentioned only in Jewish scriptures, but there is a version that he is also mentioned in the Bible. It was he who was “the finger of God” and told about the destiny of the Israeli people. This angel is considered the main one among all heavenly entities, a direct mediator between people and the Creator. His responsibility is fair attitude, mercy, power. Kings and priests, priests and judges obey him.
Wikipedia reports that the name of Metatron is translated as "standing at the throne of God" or "occupying a throne near the throne of God." Usually servants of the Creator have names ending in "el" or "il", in this regard, the name of the angel of wisdom and justice is non-standard. Metatron has two sides - dark and light. The dark side shows human sinfulness, inability to resist temptations, dark thoughts and deeds.
In the Old Testament, Metatron is divided into two angels. The angel responsible for the light side of human nature is called Michael, and the representative of the dark side and human vices is Samael. Samael is in charge of everything that can destroy a person:
- destructive thoughts,
- violation of the commandments,
- addictions
- immoral acts.
Metatron also has names. So in the text-revelation "Apocalypse", the archangel calls himself Yachoel, in the book of Kabbalah he is called "little Yahаweh" and is described as the ruler of all heavenly entities. The Creator's helper and guide is the youngest and tallest.
All angels and archangels are responsible to the young assistant of the Creator, follow the instructions that he receives directly from God. Metatron is also present in the face of Jesus, in churches and temples. The supernatural things that happen to believers are the work of the archangel.
Cosmopolitan Enoch mentions that the Creator affectionately calls Metatron as his youth. One of the books claims that Enoch himself ascended to heaven and took a new name - Metatron. Before starting his duties, Enoch experienced the displeasure of the heavenly entities. The angels did not accept that they would be ruled by a man. Despite the righteousness and holy life on earth, Enoch was still a man - and this caused discontent. God did not allow rebellion or any other conflict, he turned man into a perfect entity and put the world of people at his disposal. The Creator gave him a throne similar to his own.
The angel Metatron is not mentioned in Christian biblical writings in the capacity in which he is described by the Jews and Kabbalists. However, Enoch shed light on this situation.
A sage named Acher ended up in heaven and found two thrones there. Deciding that there was dual power in heaven, Acher doubted the sole power of God. Upon learning of this, the angry Creator expelled the sage, and ordered Metatron to be flogged with a fiery whip because he, with his glory, plunged man into doubts about the sole authority of God.
According to Enoch, that is why any mention of the main archangel was deleted from the Christian holy books. Despite the fact that the mention of the Supreme Angel was erased from all the scriptures, he did not lose his glory and power. He knows every thought of the Creator. The Creator forgave him and ordered him to continue to make sure that strangers did not approach the thrones. He is still in charge of the entire heavenly kingdom and the earthly world of people. His light is brighter than other celestial beings, he knows everything that happens on earth and in heaven. He is the heavenly judge who decides whether a person will go to Hell or Paradise. His final decision is taken to call the seal of Metatron.
What is Metatron's cube
Sacred Geometry specializes in the study of the secret meanings of geometric shapes and symbols. Research also deals with plane and space measurements. The location of the stars, astrological horoscopes, the influence of the planets on the character and destiny of a person - all this refers to sacred geometry.
Archangel Metatron is closely associated with measures, since his responsibility is to determine the severity of a person's sin, weigh all good and evil deeds and impose a measure of punishment. According to legend, it was he who discovered the measurement system for mankind.
The patterns on the mosques are also the work of the chief archangel, who showed people a three-dimensional symbol, which became the basis of all figures known to mankind. Many argue about what Metatron's cube is, but they agree on one opinion - it is a cube that includes blocks from which everything that can be seen or felt is built.
The cube can be three-dimensional or two-dimensional. Made in the form of a talisman, it can protect a person from magical effects, as well as help in the development of clairvoyance and magic.
Project "32 impulses from Metatron"
Previously, this project was called "33 impulses from Metatron", but it was revised and renamed "32 impulses from Metatron". Deeply religious people and those who have just decided to devote themselves to spiritual search participate in this project. The essence of the project is the creation of a new world, spiritual growth, expansion of consciousness and perception of the earthly world and the subtle plane. Participants gather at events, go to services in holy places. A person who is not able to attend seminars with a group can participate in them online.
Photographs of matrix codes are used as teaching materials, which change the space and allow a person to control their reality. The goal of the project is to receive divine energy through the archangel Metatron, his grace, as well as spread the teachings around the world.
Miraculous prayers to Metatron
Prayers to the archangel Metatron have miraculous powers. They are able to heal, fill with energy, suggest the right path. True, there is one rule: you cannot read prayers to yourself. If a person needs help, then it is not allowed to ask for it yourself. In this case, you should ask a loved one to turn to the archangel and ask him.
The quick fulfillment of the desired will occur in relation to children. Metatron loves children and adolescents very much, patronizes them. All prayers related to children's health or adolescent development of personality will be heard first and immediately fulfilled. For greater inner confidence, you can draw the golden ratio on a piece of paper and keep it with you.
If the child is sick, and the methods of treatment do not give results or the doctors cannot establish the correct diagnosis in any way, it is necessary to say the following words over the sick child:
The prayer you hear will not go unanswered and soon the angels will bring the answer to the asking parents. It can be given in any form, so you need to listen carefully to people and signs. In most cases, the diagnosis is established, the methods of treatment are found, but there may be other options. Of these, the message may come in the form of contacts of another doctor who will be more competent in matters of the current illness. There were cases when unexpected circumstances forced parents to move to another city or country, they had to get used to other conditions. A short time after the move, when they were registering their child in a medical institution, it turned out that it was in it that a specialist was working, who promptly took over the treatment.
If an adult needs help, he can ask a loved one to read the following prayer:
You can also ask to help a teenager: avoid bad company or get out of it, direct the child on the right path, eliminate complexes and give confidence. Help in studies and scientific activities, develop spirituality. The Archangel can help in choosing a profession, in the event that a child cannot make a choice, as well as ease the torment of unrequited love.
Women can be asked for health and rejuvenation, and men - for healing and strength of character. They turn to the Vladyka in the event of upcoming court proceedings, asking him for a successful outcome of the case in favor of the one asking. As an angel of kingdom and power, his patronage extends to people in leadership positions. All requests must come from the heart. Before asking another person to pray for a sufferer, you need to make sure that he really wants this and his words will be sincere, and his thoughts are pure. Usually relatives ask for prayer, because close people wish us happiness and health more than others.
Angel Metatron is omnipotent and merciful. The stronger a person's faith, the more mercy he receives from the Supreme Archangel. The more righteous you live, the more energy and protection you can receive. The Heavenly Sovereign does not just feel a person, but knows his every thought, every intention, therefore prayer, not from faith, but for his own benefit, will be ignored.
Metatron is one of two archangels whose names do not end with the suffix -il (-el), which means "God." The mystical Jewish book "Zohar" describes Metatron as "the highest of the archangels, revered more than any other messenger of God." It says that Metatron governs all living beings below and above and is the mediator between Heaven and Earth.
As the name suggests, Metatron is a special archangel. His name, unlike the others, does not end in "silt". He is not on a par with other archangels. He is called the King of Angels. Its vibrational level is the highest, and on the hierarchical ladder it stands closest to the source. He guards the threshold that separates form and formlessness. On the bridge between the earthly and divine, Metatron, in contrast to Uriel standing on the material side, is at the spiritual base of the bridge.
Its energy is measured and purifying. This is pure and all-encompassing love. Its colors are white, pearl-pearl, golden.
Metatron helps: all-encompassing love, perfection, consciousness, calmness, opening the gates of consciousness, connection with the divine principle in oneself.
Metatron is associated with Merkaba, which is described in the Old Testament Book of the Prophet Ezekiel as the chariot of God. The chariot itself is made of angels, and the Seraphim set it in motion using flashes of their light. In the Book of Enoch, Metatron is given the rulership of the Merkaba. It also says that the Kabbalistic Tree of Life is the chariot of the spiritual path - the Merkaba. Metatron is in charge of the first Sephira of the Tree of Life.
Today Metatron and Merkaba are an important part of the Flower of Life teachings - in particular, “sacred geometry”. "Metatron's Cube" is regarded as one of the stages in the development of the Flower of Life. And he is the source of all five Platonic solids. You can summon Metatron and his healing cube to cleanse. His aura colors are deep pink and dark green.
As the scribe of God, Metatron with his sacred geometry is the teacher of esoteric knowledge. If you want to realize high truths, Archangel Metatron and Archangel Raziel are wonderful teachers to turn to.
Archangel Metatron understands well the matter of the physical Universe, created, in fact, from atoms and the energy of thought. He can help you work with the energies of the universe for healing, teaching, and even changing the course of time.
Archangel Metatron teaches esoteric wisdom to both adults and children. It seems that he is especially interested in highly sensitive young people who are not understood and sometimes even treated because of their psychic abilities they do not fit into society. If your child has difficulty communicating with peers, Metatron can help.
Metatron has strong and highly directional energy, similar to a laser beam. This archangel helps you cope with procrastination and take confident steps forward. He is an excellent philosopher who helps to understand the motives of actions - his own and those around him, the reasons for the occurrence of certain situations.
Metatron helps:
- Suffering from the syndrome of distracted attention or the syndrome of hyperactivity and distracted attention.
- In solving children's issues.
- In the problems of obtaining, preserving and organizing information.
- In spiritual development.
- In writing.
Metatron is the beginning and end, alpha and omega, the birth of light from divine emptiness, from unity. As the guardian of the threshold, Metatron transforms ideas into forms. Behind him is a void that gives rise to countless possibilities. In this space, any light dissolves and disappears, since there is nothing in emptiness that can reflect it. That is why, when we plunge into the energy of Metatron, we are enveloped in velvety darkness. And sometimes there is a radiant light, the light of unity. Metatron, like a prism that divides light into different colors, divides the energy of unity into different parts.
His power is the power of love, which creates everything and lives in everything, the power of God. This love gives form, but does not create matter. At this level, the vibrations are too subtle to create material.
The action of Metatron can be compared to the work of our mind. Thoughts, pictures, ideas suddenly arise from "nothing". Then angels and archangels give these thoughts and ideas a form and only then turn them into something concrete. Eventually they materialize, which was the main goal.
Metatron takes part in the entire creation process. He participates in the creation of the Universe, planetary systems, social structures, progress, as well as the spiritual world, archangels, angels and other spiritual entities. It helps souls to be “born”, leave “oneness”, and then become personalities - just as a piece of the ocean, separating from it, becomes a drop.
Together with Melchizedek, he embodies impulses into matter. Metatron deals with the intellectual and spiritual aspects, and Melchizedek stands at the top of the ray of materialization. Also Metatron gives us the opportunity to return to unity, to "nothing". When the time comes, he dissolves the forms and lets them back into the void. The drop merges with the ocean again.
Metatron is the angel of development and change. It accompanies any development, any change in vibration, and in our time it especially contributes to an increase in the intensity of vibrations.
Metatron opens the doors of the human consciousness and the human dimension.
He brings revelation, clarification, inspiration. He opens our eyes to important things. With the help of his energy, we can come back in touch with unity. He shows us that human beings, while still in the body, can merge with God or with divine power. Metatron is one of the main guides on the path of initiation into the mysteries of life. He helps us see obstacles along the way. We realize who we really are, how we can live better, and how to break down obstacles.
With Metatron, we can see different paths and possibilities, as well as the consequences of choosing each of them. We understand that life every day provides us with an opportunity to enter the path of initiation.
Metatron connects us with the power of love and opens hearts. Its power brings calmness, satisfaction, blessing, unity, an all-encompassing and unencumbered being. Its power strengthens consciousness and increases vibration. Metatron meets people on their way and leads them to the higher realms.
When working with its energy, you should stand firmly on your feet, otherwise you can easily lose touch with the earth and with the body.
Special protection can be found in the energy of Metatron. Unlike protection with light or a veil of power (such is the protection of Michael), Metatron envelops us in love. His love does not protect us from "evil", but it can transform and change him. Love is what can create forms and destroy them.
The shell of love neutralizes duality: good and evil no longer have any effect. Metatron gives us the realization that good and evil are just two facets of the same energy, united by a single goal: to return us to the source. When we are in love, we easily forgive the evil done to us by the person we love, and as a result it dissolves. Love destroys fear, which damages the aura and removes us from the light of the source. Good and evil do not exist under the cover of love. Only love exists.
This protection is effective only for those who have assimilated the truth: good and evil are different poles on the field of duality, and outside of duality this separation does not exist. The veil of love will protect only those who were able to realize and accept evil in themselves and in the world around them, that is, those who do not need protection from evil. When we realize that there is a dark line within us that should be accepted and loved, our vibration level will become high enough to connect with the power of Metatron.
The power of Michael is more suitable for protection from evil. It stabilizes the aura and gives us protection similar to armor or shield. But for the knowledge of duality and unity, good and evil, for gaining love, one should use the power of Metatron.
Many experience "separation from the body" upon contact with the energy of Metatron. This is why it is especially important to “tie to the ground” with grounding. The energy of Metatron can be activated only in a state of calmness or during meditation, but in no case should it be activated when driving a car or other activities that require attention.
Some are overwhelmed by the energy of Metatron: they begin to get nervous, because the vibration level is too high for their state at the moment. With the help of the energy of Metatron, people find themselves in a space that is outside of everyday life, they plunge into peace, silence and silence.
- when you feel a distance from God, from oneness;
- in meditation;
- to connect with existence and with the basis of our essence;
- for contact with heart love and all-embracing love;
- to understand the possibilities and the path;
- for clarity;
- for people with a limited outlook, for those who do not see the opportunities provided by life, who do not see a miracle in every new day, for materialists, for people cut off from society;
- to fight depression;
- to support the dying;
- do not use it when you need to be mobile, active, or before performing. The energy of Metatron lifts us above everyday life.

Archangel METATRON
He will be a rod for the righteous and saints, so that they lean on Him and do not fall;
and He will be the light of the nations and the hope of those who are grieved in their hearts.
Book of Enoch (48:22). Translated by A. V. SmirnovMetatron (Hebrew Metatron, Greek μεταθρονιος, metà thrónos, metatronios) - "standing beside the Throne [of God]" or "occupying the throne next to God's Throne"; in Judaistic mythology - "the altar angel", standing before the throne, the highest angel, the closest to the Creator, the Servant of God, the Scribe of God, the Connoisseur of secrets, the Heavenly mediator, the Prince of Peace, who has many other titles and 70 names. Metatron receives instructions directly from God, which he fulfills himself or with the help of other angels and archangels below him. Metatron acts on behalf of God with unlimited powers and opportunities. Metatron is next to the Creator at His Throne of Glory and occupies the position of the highest of all His creations, he is entrusted with the rule of the earthly and heavenly world in all its manifestations, as well as recording, evaluating and judging all the thoughts and deeds of people. All the secrets and laws of the universe are open to Metatron, all thoughts in human hearts, and he transfers this knowledge about the world order to the children and people of the earth. The most famous example is the transmission of the Law to Moses. This is evidenced by such titles of Metatron as Angel of the Covenant and Lord of the Torah. Also Metatron is called the main Guardian of life and all the treasures of the heavenly palaces.
Metatron ensures the connection of people with the Higher Worlds, therefore he is called the Heavenly Mediator or the Divine Mediator between God and creation. Metatron is one of the main Heavenly mediators, along with many others, such as Adam, Noah, Moses, the Archangel Michael, Melchizedek, Jesus Christ, etc. Metatron can be safely called the main Heavenly mediator, surpassing all others in capabilities and responsibilities and associated with God especially close ties. A significant layer of literature of the Jewish religious tradition, mystical works and sources of apocalyptic and prophetic literature, including the so-called pseudo-epigraphs3 attributed to various Old Testament characters, such as Enoch, Abraham, Jacob, Moses, are devoted to the heavenly intermediaries.
Metatron initially has the status of a person, he is identified primarily with a well-known real earthly character - the Old Testament patriarch Enoch (the seventh from Adam), a mysterious and unique biblical personality revered by many religions, known for his unsurpassed knowledge, his impeccability in serving God and people. Enoch was born, like all people, a woman, lived 365 years, but he did not die, but underwent a fiery transformation and transformation during his lifetime into an essence similar to the angelic one, and became the head over all angels and archangels, receiving the title and name of Archangel Metatron. At the same time, Metatron did not lose his human essence - his human soul, his consciousness, his human experience and skills. This process of transformation is detailed in the Third Book of Enoch. It turns out that since Enoch did not die, he is an ever-living man!
Metatron is the Image of the hypostasis of God, he is called: Angel of the Face, Prince of His Face (Hagiga 13), Angel of the Name of God, Angel of the Covenant. Talmudic commentators believe that it is to Metatron that Moses refers in the book of Exodus (33:15) when he says: “... If you do not go yourself [in Heb. original paneikha - addressing the Lord as an Angel of the Face] with us, then do not lead us out of here ”4. The Talmud about Metatron says: “The name Metatron is equivalent to the name“ LORD ”and He sits in the Holy of Holies and acts as the Messenger of God. He is called “the Angel of the LORD”, “the Prince of the Universe”, “the Prince of His Face” and even the name Shechina - “the Presence of God” 5. The Zohar 6 contains and lists the following titles of Metatron: "Metatron is an Angel named" Prince of His Face "," Prince of His Face "," Prince of the Torah "," Prince of Power "," Prince of Glory "," Prince of Holiness "," Prince of Angels "," Prince of Kings "(Judgment 5: 3)," Prince of Princes "7.
Metatron in gnosticism, magic, esotericism is one of the main figures associated with the tasks of creation, development and salvation.
The theme of the Son of Man and the Messiah, the Great Judgment and Resurrection is inextricably linked with the name of Metatron. He is a powerful supreme judge in the execution of the Great Judgment over everyone from the righteous to sinners and a symbol of the manifestation of mercy. He is the Chosen One. The understanding of Metatron as Messiah and Savior of the World (Salvator Mundi) is an important and centuries-old debated issue in religious and scientific research, therefore it will be considered in more detail in a separate chapter. Pico della Mirandola8 wrote that a man will be born - the Savior of the World, this is a descendant of Adam and the name of this man is Enoch: “Again, Simon says that our father Adam found another grandson through Seth, remembering the Kabbalah that he gave him Raziel, according to which a man will be born from his seed, the future savior. That is why he was named Enoch, that is, Man ”9.
Another topic widely discussed in specialist circles, but practically unknown to the ordinary reader, is the duality of Metatron, the presence of two hypostases in him. The title of Metatron - Sar ha-panim - literally means in Hebrew the Prince of the Divine Face, the Prince of the Divine Presence or the Prince of the visible image. This title embodies the luminous aspect of Metatron. The angel Metatron manifests not only the face, but also the will of God, speaks on His behalf and acts in the name of God. Another title of Metatron - Sar ha-olam - means "Prince of this World" and expresses his dark aspect and power over the forces of darkness and chaos. Such an understanding of Metatron as a combination in one personality, in a single whole of its two sides, two opposites, erroneously interpreted as dualism, that is, as an idea of \u200b\u200btwo principles and their opposition, will be disclosed in more detail later. Understanding the essence of Metatron, indicated by its two poles, or aspects called by a variety of names and epithets: Heavenly and Earthly, Masculine and Feminine, Manifested and Unmanifested, speaks about the laws of the structure of everything and the movement of everything, about what is and has always been, in everything and in everyone, about the constant transformation from one pole to the other, about the harmonious interaction of two sides of the structure of any object of reality, including a person, especially since Metatron is a person who did not know death an ever-living person who has undergone transformation into higher forms spiritual manifestation and continues to serve God and people just as he did on earth - day after day.
Metatron is the name of an angel from the Hebrew Haggadah: "Angel Great and Mighty." His name bears the Name of the Creator and has the same numerical value in gematria 10 - 314 as Shaddai (Shaddai, Shaddai - Almighty, All-Powerful, one of the names of God). The name Metatron is considered to be derived from the name of Yahweh, it is also called the little Yahweh or "the little YHWH", thus the name of Metatron is associated with the Divine Name, which is the lesser manifestation of the unpronounceable sacred name of the Lord in the Jewish tradition. Little Yahweh is an abbreviated form of the tetragrammaton "Come up to the Lord" (Yud-Gay-Vav-Gay).
Other titles of Metatron - Great Priest (Cohen ha-gadol) and Grand Duke (Sar ha-gadol) - reflect the principle of supreme royal power and the embodiment of the highest spiritual priestly or pontifical power.
Metatron is called the "Pointing Finger of God", since he showed Moses the promised land from the top of Mount Sinai and walked ahead of the Jews in the desert, showing them the way. Metatron interprets to Abraham the sacred words with which God created the world, he teaches the Law of Moses when he was on Mount Sinai for forty days and nights.
The highest angel Metatron is identified with a man - the patriarch Enoch, who went through ascension and transformation into a divine being during his lifetime. The seventh patriarch Enoch did not die, did not go through death, but was taken to heaven for his righteous deeds by God, became His helper, the highest angel and Archangel, having received after the transformation a new name Metatron, one of the names of the Most High. It is known from the Bible about Enoch that he is the seventh descendant of Adam, the great-grandfather of Noah, therefore he is often called the antediluvian patriarch, he lived 365 years and “he was not, because God took him” (Gen. 5:24), in the Letter to the Hebrews The Apostle Paul says about Enoch: “By faith Enoch was translated so that he did not see death; and he was no more, because God had translated him. For before his deportation he received a testimony that he pleased God ”(Heb. 11: 5).
Stories about Enoch exist in various texts of the Bible, in Jewish sources related to its interpretation, but especially fully and in detail in three apocrypha, named after him and according to the order of acquisition and the language of the found manuscript: The first book of Enoch (or the Book of Enoch) is Ethiopian ( further also 1 Enoch), the Second Book of Enoch ("Book of Secrets") - Slavic (2 Enoch) and the Third Book of Enoch (known as Sefer Heikhalot, "Book of Heavenly Palaces" or "Book of Palaces") - Hebrew (3 Enoch). It is in the Third Book of Enoch that the inextricable connection of the Old Testament patriarch with Metatron is shown and the complete identification of these persons is given. In addition to the Third Book of Enoch, information about Metatron is found in Targums11, Mishnah12, Jerusalem and Babylonian Talmuds13, Midrashs14. The first book of Enoch was known from the first century AD and is mentioned in the Epistle of the Apostle Jude (1: 14-15). In their writings, Irenaeus of Lyons, Tertullian, Clement of Alexandria, Origen referred to the Book of Enoch. The dating of these works and possible primary sources is rather vague, and there is no unanimity among specialists, researchers and interpreters of these books. Despite the significant differences in the texts of all three books, it is believed that they go back to one ancient primary source. They contain ideas about the heavenly, spiritual and transcendental worlds, their structure and inhabitants, about the Judgment and eternal life, prophecies and scenes of the Apocalypse. All the secrets of creation are revealed to Enoch, unknown even to the angels. The Book of Heavenly Palaces tells in detail and figuratively how Enoch became Metatron after his ascension and transformation from human flesh into the angelic aspect through the transformation by fire. Also, this book presents a clear and unique angelology - a hierarchy of angelic beings. The description of Enoch's ascension to the highest heaven, to the Palaces of the Throne, ends with a brief indication of the duties of Metatron: "He put me there to serve the Throne of Glory day after day" (3 Enoch, ch. 7) 15.
Enoch could see the hidden and secret motives of people, the secrets of human hearts were revealed to him, in the Second Book of Enoch he tells his children that he can see the hidden actions of each person as in a mirror (now they would write - he has unique sensory abilities): “I wrote down all the achievements of each person in letters, and no one can (hide) from those born on earth, and cannot (can) his achievements remain a secret. I see everything as in a mirror ”(2 Enoch 50: 1).
It should be noted that Enoch is not the only source of the formation of the image of Metatron, although the main archangel is most fully identified with him. There is nothing strange in this, since, having become the first and main over the angels and archangels, Metatron reflects and embodies the best features of everyone and can act like everyone, otherwise he would not be the first among them. Metatron is associated with the angel Iaoel16. Metatron is also identified and equated with the Archangel Michael, they consider him a double, associations with him are very strong, there are coincidences and similarities in their titles, actions, images, functions and abilities. They are both supreme angels and great archangels. Archangels Metatron and Michael are the protectors of humanity and the guardians of the people of Israel, the leaders of the Heavenly Host. These archangels stand at the line separating the creation from the Creator, and serve as intermediaries between God and man. They both carry the titles: Angel of Anticipation, Grand Duke, Heavenly Mediator, teacher of humanity. The angel Metatron from the top of Mount Sinai showed Moses the promised land, he walked ahead of the Jews in the desert. Michael was the leader of the Israelites in the wilderness during their exodus from Egyptian slavery. Metatron teaches Moses the Law when he is on Mount Sinai for forty days and nights. Metatron interprets to Abraham the sacred words with which God created the world. Archangel Michael is also considered the teacher of Moses, to whom he gave the Tablets of the Law on Mount Sinai. Michael "holds the keys to the kingdom of heaven", the same is written about Enoch-Metatron. Archangel Metatron is not God and has never been considered or presented as God.
Another similar status is a guardian, mediator, psychopomp17 - a guide of souls between worlds. Metatron, like Michael, brings the souls of the righteous to God, he meets the souls of dead people and helps them adapt to new conditions. Some researchers call the Archangel Michael the bright aspect of Metatron18.
In the Hermetic tradition, Enoch is identified with Hermes, to whom Mercury corresponds in the ancient Roman pantheon19, with the Egyptian Thoth, with the Egyptian deity Horus. There is an idea that it was the greatest sage and teacher, the messenger of God Hermes, who was known to the Jews as Enoch. This is confirmed by one of the theories of the death of Hermes, who, like Enoch, was transferred without passing through death to the abode of God. Enoch-Metatron and Hermes passed on outstanding knowledge to humanity. Hermes was the patron saint of magic, alchemy and astrology, the messenger of the gods and the guide of souls (psychopomp) of the dead to the underworld of Hades, invented measures, numbers, the alphabet and taught them to people, was the first to introduce months and investigated the course of the heavenly bodies. Therefore, Hermes has the title of Trismegistus - Three times the Greatest. Hermes in Egypt is associated with Thoth, and in ancient Rome - with Mercury. Having discovered mercury, medieval alchemists named the new substance after the god Mercury. Hermes in the Book of Thoth opened the Way of eternal life to all mankind, he has the titles: Ruler of Three Worlds, Scribe of God and Keeper of the Book of Life, he gave people the alphabet and writing, a calendar with 365 days, medicine, astronomy and many other sciences. In Egyptian images, Thoth writes on a wax tablet the results of weighing the souls of the dead in the Judgment Hall of Osiris. These actions allow you to see the connection and identify ideas about the personality of Metatron - Hermes-Mercury. A comparison of the personality of Metatron and Mercury, as well as an alchemical understanding of this image, provides rich food for thought and is further described in a separate chapter.
Especially noteworthy is the sacred and long-known model, named after the great archangel - Metatron's Cube, which is the scheme and basis for the structure of the Universe, the creation and development of space. Pythagoras, who studied mathematics from the Egyptians and learned from them the symbolism of volumetric bodies, was engaged in the Platonic solids included in the Metatron's Cube.
Metatron is mentioned three times in the Babylonian Talmud. The image of Enoch-Metatron and the title "Great Prince of the Throne of God" and "Great Prince of the World" are found on the ritual Babylonian bowls. In magical rituals that were practiced among the Hittites and in Babylonia, the title of Metatron was used as "lord of justice" and "great healer" 20.
In the Quran and Islamic legends, Enoch is referred to as the prophet Idris, sometimes he is identified with the king Osiris. Enoch is believed to have invented astronomy, writing, and arithmetic. Information about him can be found in the Sumerian-Akkadian mythology of ancient kings and great sages, in the legends of Ziusudra, the king of the solar city, who escaped during the flood and received the gift of providence from the gods. In addition, the legend of the Mesopotamian king Enmeduranka (Sumerian. Enmenduranna), endowed with features similar to Enoch, is compared with the history of Enoch: he is the ancestor of all seers, the seventh in the list of ancient kings who ruled before the flood, knowledge of astronomy and the art of predicting the future go back to him. Similar references are found in the First Book of Enoch, where he was called by the Lord to judge the fallen angels.
In the Orthodox tradition, there is a special understanding of the fact that the two biblical characters Enoch and Elijah did not die, but became archangels through transfiguration during their lifetime. In the Orthodox interpretation, Enoch and Elijah were not ascended to heaven, not to the Throne of God, to the highest seventh level of the Heavenly Kingdom, as described in the books of Enoch, including the Slavic (that is, in sources well known and studied in the Orthodox branch of Christianity ), but to a certain secret place in which they await the coming of the last days, described in the Revelation of John the Theologian. And since Enoch did not die, and this fact, reflected in the Bible, is not disputed in Orthodoxy, he, like Elijah the Prophet, will have to go through death, like all other people. The appearance of Enoch together with the prophet Elijah is expected before the Second Coming of Jesus Christ, after which, as it is believed in the Orthodox tradition, they will die, and then will be resurrected along with all other people. In Orthodoxy, the veneration of Patriarch Enoch is celebrated on the Week of the Forefathers, on Sunday two weeks before the feast of the Nativity of Christ.
An important characteristic of Metatron is the light emitted by him, the radiance of which surpasses the light of all other celestial beings. This light is considered as part of the radiance of the heavenly throne, on which he alone has the right to sit. According to other versions, Metatron sits next to or behind the throne. The right to sit may be related to the fact that Metatron is entrusted with the duties of a divine scribe. He is the scribe of God, leading his affairs and the keeper of his secrets, recording all the deeds of people, angels and all the events of the world. Metatron is God's helper, he is the heavenly chancellor and personal secretary of God, the keeper of secrets and rituals. In addition to secretarial functions, Metatron carries out many power functions of God, acting in His name.
Metatron is a mediator between God and creation: people, angels and other entities, a conductor of God's will to people and an intercessor for people. He is the first, and he is also the last of the 10 archangels, the youngest of the archangels in the heavenly host, since he became the archangel later than the others. All other archangels appeared at the very beginning of creation, before other creatures, and Metatron rules over them. Having the title of Master of the World, Metatron is the highest angel placed over all creation: “Highest in the host of angels and in the world of disembodied heavenly forces, he has no equal, and he stands directly before the throne of the Creator. The light emanating from him surpasses the light of all other celestial beings, and without his permission, no angel does anything. Part of the radiance from the Heavenly Throne passed to him, and he knows all the secret decisions of the Father who is in Heaven ”(Yalkut 44). “Above others in rank, being in close proximity to the Lord, he receives His orders, which he fulfills either himself (Yalkut 44), or through others, below his standing angels (Midrash Abhir)” 21.
Metatron is called the teacher of humanity, he is the original bearer of the revelation, it was he who taught Moses the Law. The Torah was given to Moses by Enoch-Metatron: “I gave it only to Metatron, My Servant, because he is unique among all the sons of the heights. And Metatron brought her out of My storehouses and gave her to Moses ”(3 Enoch. 48D) 22. Therefore, Metatron has the title of Prince of the Torah.
Metatron is the protector of the people of Israel and humanity, an assistant to people who understands their problems well, since he has an exceptional and greatest experience of being both a man and like an angel.
Metatron's special attitude towards children and his duties as a Heavenly Teacher are well known, teaching children in Heaven is called the "Heavenly School of Metatron" 23, and "The School of Metatron is the School of the Blessed One" 24. Metatron is the guardian and mentor of prematurely dead children, he teaches them the secrets of divine wisdom, all the fullness of knowledge: “Every day M. stays in the highest heaven, where he collects the souls of children who died early, which he then keeps under God's throne and teaches them the Torah and all the wisdom almost literally (Aboda Zara 3b) "25. Since the daily duties of Metatron to be the Teacher of all and, most importantly, children are extremely important, I will give an expanded quote from the Third Book of Enoch: “... every day Metatron sits three hours on the heavenly heights and collects all the souls of the deceased who died in the womb of their mother, and babies who died at the breast of their mother, and the disciples who died while studying the Five Books of Torah. He brings them under the Throne of Glory and seats them around him in classes, partnerships and groups, and teaches them the Torah, and wisdom, and haggad, and traditions, and he celebrates with them the completion (study) of the Torah ... ”(3 Enoch, ch. 48C) 26. I would especially like to highlight the thought of Professor Yosef Dan27, a student of Gershom Scholem28: “And he teaches children in the belly of their mother” 29. Metatron, like Enoch, teaches everyone not only through the “textbook” created by him - the Book of Life, where he, as the Scribe of God, writes down all the secrets of the World and information about all objects, phenomena and patterns, not only personally as a Teacher who shares his knowledge, but above all, his entire flawless life is the main example, lesson and Path for everyone.
Metatron is called a healer. In the Torah, which he gave to Moses, it is said about this angel: “for I am the Lord your Healer” (Ex. 15:26). In one of the magic spells in Aramaic with a plate found in Iran, Metatron is called the "Great Healer". Let us quote an excerpt from this text: “She was defeated and sealed under the threshold of the house of Bahram-Gusnasp, the son of Ishtar-Nahid, with the help of the talisman Metatron, the venerable prince, who is called the“ great healer ”... He defeated the Shedim and Devin, black magic and magic spells ... "thirty
In the Zohar, Metatron is called the keeper of heavenly treasures, including 45 keys from combinations of carved letters. In the Third Book of Enoch, the Creator says about the function of a keeper and guardian: “I put him over all the treasures of the Aravot Palaces and over all the stores of life that I have in the heavenly heights” (3 Enoch, ch. 10) 31.
In the book "These are the names ..." Simcha Polonsky32 examines the biblical names from Adam to the prophet Malachi, their meanings and origins; he cites many titles of Metatron: Guardian of the Universe, Secret Truth, Lord over all, Path to the Tree of Life, Mediator for all. He quotes the words of Rabbi Shimon bar Yochai33: “And God said: Let us make man in Our image and after Our likeness” - to whom did the Almighty say this? - asks Rabbi Shimon bar Yochai and replies: “He said this to Yahweh. Yave, Adonai and His Shekinah is the Holy Blessed One, and His Shekinah is between two lines: Yaѓve on the right, Adonai on the left, and the middle pillar is the secret Amen (Truth). They constitute One Unity. The middle pillar is in the name Metatron. The meaning is the Guardian (compare: in the Chaldean language, the Guardian is called Meterat). And because He is the Keeper of the Universe, in Ps. 120: 5 He is referred to as the Keeper of Israel. From His name we know that He is the Lord over everything below, for all the armies of heaven and everything on earth are under His omnipotent power. " And here is what Rabbi Shimon bar Yochai also says about Metatron: “Who is the path to the Tree of Life? This is Metatron, therefore He is the path to the Great Tree of Life. Any petition to the King (Father) must be made through Metatron, therefore He is the Mediator for all who descend from heaven to earth and ascend from earth to heaven. " Rabbi Menachem of Recanati in the book "Sefer Yetzirah" points out: "The great and exalted God tells him to ascend to Yaveh, who is Metatron - the One who was often called the Name of God - Yaveh" 35.
One of the important and unique functions of Metatron is the measurement of time and space. Range: measurement of the World and measurement of God. The sacred spatial geometric construction of Metatron's Cube is named after Metatron. There is another sacred model, called the Stellated Octahedron, whose two-dimensional projection onto the plane is also called "Metatron's Cube". The stellated Octahedron, which has the esoteric name of Merkaba, is not a Platonic solid and a convex polyhedron, but is built from two identical Platonic solids - from two Tetrahedrons, mirrored into each other, and is ideally inscribed in Metatron's Cube. More than 2500 years ago, these models were known to Pythagoras. Plato called all five figures "cosmic building blocks of the universe" and correlated them with five elements: earth (Cube), water (Icosahedron), fire (Tetrahedron), air (Octahedron) and "heavenly matter" or ether (Dodecahedron). Metatron's cube is a natural model that has been reflected in history, art and symbols for centuries, it is the primary harmonious spatial structure, the basis for the structure of all elements of the earthly and other realities in all dimensions and dimensions, which is the basis of physical and heavenly perspective. Metatron's cube is a universal form of both time and space and a person. Metatron's Cube includes in its structure 13 Midot - Spheres or their projections of circles, correlated with 13 Divine Forces, or Cohots. This model shows the projection of 13 Divine Forces from the spiritual plane to the material world. Metatron's Cube represents the model of the World, the unity and uniqueness of the 13 Divine Forces and their interaction at different levels of the World.
Metatron is called the Meter of Time. Enoch was also engaged in measuring time before his transformation into Metatron. In the section of the First Book of Enoch, "On the heavenly bodies," it is said that he was the person to whom the angel Uriel36 instructed how to build a megalithic circle, to record the movements of the sun at dawn and dusk throughout the year. Metatron continues this function of a meter of ordinary time, he is responsible for the system of movement of the sun in its daily and annual cycle. The combination of Metatron's function as a meter of time and a builder of space through the sacred geometric model of Metatron's Cube looks logical and logical, since time and space are interconnected. Time is a form of space. There is a form of space - there is also time. Therefore, Metatron can be called the Architect of space and the Meter of Time, the Guardian of the Universe. The monograph "METATRON" examines in detail the aspect of Metatron associated with the organization and development of space and called the Metatron Cube. Other meanings of the name of Metatron, its origin, functions and activities are given for reference in a brief summary to emphasize the wide range of responsibility of Metatron and the exclusive role of this personality in all structures of the World from the spiritual (also called the Subtle or Informational world) to the manifested Physical world.
