Well, yes. Transformation.

"A cluster of complex ideas makes up the tragic circumstances which are
so clearly delineated in Faust. Intelligence emerges in the human
psyche. It torments man into aspiring for finalities. These
superlatives betoken his longings for complete satiation of impulses,
including his intellectual ones. God represents the established order
which has reduced his followers to submissive servitude--He refers to
Faust as servant, just as God in the -Book of Job- refers to Job as His
servant. God's repressive authority reaches the width and breadth of
the land, and of the human psyche. The Angels proclaim his majesty and
beauty--but do not understand it. Man's longings to be free must
therefore of necessity materialize into an arch enemy of the
established regime, which has already identified with what is good in
view of the fact that it provides comforts and security. In the image
of the Devil the rebellion against God can then proceed."
