Satan or the devil appears in various monotheistic religious references. He is the opponent of God. But where did this figure originate?
This video discusses the evolution of the figure of Satan, or the Devil, in Western religious traditions, focusing on Judaism, Christianity, and Islam. Initially, ancient religious texts, particularly in the Jewish Bible, did not depict Satan as an inherently evil being. This concept began to take shape around 550 BCE under the Persian Achaemenid Empire’s influence, where the Jews adopted the idea of Satan as ’the adversary.’ This idea was further developed with the Greek term ’diabolos’ and the English ’devil,’ meaning ’accuser’ or ’slanderer.’
Evil, manifesting through natural disasters and human suffering, necessitated explanations within religious contexts. Ancient religions often attributed both good and evil to a supreme deity or multiple gods. In the Biblical book of Deuteronomy, for instance, God claims control over both prosperity and adversity. This duality was also present in other ancient creation narratives, such as the Sumerian civilization’s beliefs and the Babylonian Enuma Elish, which attributed the inception of evil to the gods themselves.
The video highlights the transformation of Satan’s role through historical and cultural influences, including the impact of Zoroastrianism during the Jewish exile. Zoroastrianism presented a dualistic view of good and evil, embodied by Ahura Mazda and Angra Mainyu, respectively. This influence reshaped the Jewish concept of ha-Satan, evolving into the figure of Satan or the Devil.
Early Christian texts, particularly the New Testament, depicted Satan as the ruler of the earthly realm, a notion further developed through Paul’s epistles and the gospels. The Gospel of Mark, for example, presents Jesus as an exorcist combating demonic forces. Revelation, written by John of Patmos, portrays the ultimate defeat of Satan after a climactic battle.
The video also explores the depiction of Satan in medieval and later Christian traditions, influenced by various mythological figures like the Greek deity Pan and the Celtic god Cernunnos. These depictions contributed to the modern imagery of Satan as a horned, goat-like figure.
By the 2nd century, Christian doctrine increasingly personified evil, targeting various groups and practices. The portrayal of Satan continued to evolve, incorporating elements from different cultures and religions.
