1. Thursday =Thor's day. Thor, Jupiter, Marduk, and Indra are all Storm gods. They're representative of the same force of nature; lightning, thunder, rain, etc.

3. In Indian astrology,each planet has got a reigningv deity and a supportive deity, called devata and adhidevata. For the planet called 'Brihaspati' called Jupiter, in English, they are respectively, Indra and Brahma. In the Navagraha mantras too the same is expressed: Brihaspate atiyadaryo arhaatdyumad vibhaati kratu majjaneshu; yaddeevachhavasarja prajaata tadasmaasu draviNam dehi chitram. Indra marutva iha paahi somam yathaa shaaryaate apibassu tasya; tava praNeeti tava shoora sharman aavivaasanti kavayaH suyajnaah; Brahma jajjnaanam prathamam purastaadviimatas surucho vena aavaH; sa budhniyaa upamaa asya vishthaaH satascha yonim asatascha vivaH.
