It draws on Jewish Kabbalistic material but is not identical with it, and the Jewish lists are not uniform among themselves. 2OverviewWhat Defines This GroupingWell-attestedSourced to the subject's own accountThe ten archangels assigned one to each sephirah of the Kabbalistic Tree of Life, from Metatron at Kether to Sandalphon at Malkuth. 2Size of the Traditional SetWell-attestedSourced to the subject's own accountTen: one archangel to each sephirah of the Tree of Life. 2DirectoryCategoryWell-attestedArchangels 1Learn MoreThe Sephirotic Archangels This group gathers the sephirotic archangels, the archangels assigned to the ten sephiroth of the Kabbalistic Tree of Life, each presiding over one of the emanations through which, in the tradition, the divine unfolds into creation. The mapping of archangels to the sephiroth is a feature of Kabbalah and of the Hermetic Kabbalah that later drew on it. The browser will find the archangels linked to the sephiroth. The entries describe each figure and its sephirah, noting the layers of tradition, Jewish Kabbalistic and later Hermetic, from which the correspondences come.Belongs To TraditionFilter Results2 entriesAdherents Today MaximumAll14,800,000 (1)Adherents Today MinimumAll14,800,000 (1)Basis of the Membership FigureAllIndependent Survey (1)Era of Decline End YearAll600 (1)Era of Decline Start YearAll300 (1)Era of Modern Revival End YearAll1471 (1)Era of Modern Revival Start YearAll1463 (1)Establishment StatusAllDeclared Not Established (1)How the Expectation Is EnforcedAllCustomary Norm (1)Membership Figure As OfAll2013-01-01 (1)2020-01-01 (1)Origin Period End YearAll400 BCE (1)300 (1)Origin Period Start YearAll586 BCE (1)1 (1)Position on SexualityAllThe body holds no single settled position; the question is actively and openly contested within it (1)Position on UsuryAllInterest is permitted but bound by ethical constraints against exploiting the poor (1)Practice StatusAllLiving, and practised in varied local forms (1)Partly restricted: some elements are closed to outsiders (1)Standard Rate ExpectedAllTen percent.
