Despite the Hellenistic language used by many Gnostic groups, the Saturnine deity had connections to the Abrahamic religious tradition.

The "Demiurge", for example, was understood to be the deity who revealed the Torah to Moses, and so the Jewish religion is understood by many Gnostic writers to be thoroughly Demiurgic.

This makes sense, especially given the cosmo-centric nature of the Torah, which emphasizes the improtance of the material world, and which is largely silent about the spiritual afterlife.

Moses is considered to be a Saturnine prophet, a revealer of laws written by the cosmic architect.
