Prasch, Madonna and the Metatrone!
What do the teachings that Madonna believes have in common with the Jesus that “Jacob” Prasch(1) believes in?
Truth be told, they should have nothing in common.
Madonna is a Kabbalist. She is a follower of the mystic sect of Judaism whose esoteric teachings attempt to explain the relationship between the unchanging, eternal God–the mysterious Ein Sof ( אֵין סוֹף, "The Infinite")– and the mortal, finite universe. Kabbalists claim that Jesus was a mystic rabbi and that he stole key concepts from the Kabballah. In the video below at the 5:14 Madonna explains some of the details of her beliefs as a Kabbalist.
Here is where things are going to get REALLY weird.
In the Kabballah there is an angel called the Metatrone מֶטָטְרוֹן which according Kabbalists is the name given to Enoch “after his transformation into an angel.”(2)
It is VERY important to note here that NOWHERE in the Bible is the name Metatrone used at all and it must be emphatically stated that Metatrone is also NEVER used as a name for God nor is it ever used as a name or title for the Angel of the Lord. If you would like to know more about how mystics view Metatrone and what they believe about Metatrone then the video below will help serve as a primer on the mystical mythology surrounding Metatrone.
So, what does all this idolatrous nonsense about Metatrone and the Kaballah have to do with “Jacob” Prasch?
Well, according to “Jacob” Prasch the Metatrone of the Kabbalah is Jesus!
In the September 2009 edition of Moriel Quarterly on page 10 in what could only be described as the most blasphemous article ever written on Christology, “Jacob” Prasch through pure sophistry and a series of bizarre mental gymnastic gyrations and out of context Bible verses mixed with quotes from the Talmuds and Midrash claims that Jesus is the Metatrone of the Kabbalah. Prasch’s article ends with these outrageous and utterly blasphemous conclusions:
Jacob wrestled with the Metatrone, God in a human form.
Joshua fell down before Him upon entering the Promised Land - the Metatrone.
The Metatrone is the middle pillar of the Godhead.
The Metatrone is Jehovah.
The Metatrone is in the Shekinah; the Shekinah is in the Metatrone.
Jehovah God, Metatrone, Shekinah, three-in-one, one-in-three. •
The Metatrone is the Redeemer; the Metatrone is the only way to God.
The Metatrone is the only one in whose name He will answer our prayers.
The Metatrone is the only one to whom God has committed the future of Israel into His hands.
The Metatrone is the only agent of God’s salvation.
The Metatrone is the only one who has the right to give the way to the tree of life.
The Metatrone is the only one in whom, if you take refuge, you will be saved.
Who is the Metatrone? Yeshua HaMashiach, “Jesus the Messiah”. ..the Metatrone is the Messiah; the Metatrone is God who became a man; the Metatrone is the only one who can give you salvation; the Metatrone is the only one who can bring you to the Jerusalem above…the Metatrone is the only one, the only way, the only future you have. Embrace the Son, blessed are all those who take refuge in the Metatrone. Yeshua HaMaschiach, Jesus, the Jewish Messiah. (emphasis added)
This false teaching by Prasch regarding Jesus being the Metatrone of the Kabbalah is not limited to this article. This false Christology is also taught in Prasch’s 2014 book Harpazo.
We cannot say this strongly enough that to appropriate the Metatrone of the Kabballah and claim that this made up, mythological character is Jesus and that it is the ‘agent of God’s salvation’ and the ‘only one in whom to take refuge’ for salvation is even more blasphemous than Rick Warren’s claim that Isa of the Koran is Jesus!
Thre is no other way to say it than to say that the “Jesus” that “Jacob” Prasch believes in is the Metatrone of the Kaballah rather than the Jesus of the Old and New Testaments. Prasch’s “Jesus” is a false Jesus.
Even Madonna would agree.

(1) Jacob is not his real name. His real name is James. One has to wonder if the reason why he took the name Jacob for himself was part of his scheme to make himself appear Jewish. But it turns out that contrary to his claims to be being half Jewish, James Prasch does not have Jewish ancestry and he’s admitted as such.
