In <a href="/wiki/Judaism" title="Judaism">Judaism</a>, Satan is seen as an agent subservient to <a href="/wiki/God_in_Judaism" title="God in Judaism">God</a>, typically regarded as a metaphor for the <i><a href="/wiki/Yetzer_hara" title="Yetzer hara">yetzer hara</a></i>, or 'evil inclination'.

During the <a href="/wiki/Intertestamental_period" title="Intertestamental period">intertestamental period</a>, possibly due to influence from the <a href="/wiki/Zoroastrianism" title="Zoroastrianism">Zoroastrian</a> figure of <a href="/wiki/Ahriman" title="Ahriman">Angra Mainyu</a>, the satan developed into a malevolent entity with abhorrent qualities in <a href="/wiki/Dualism_in_cosmology" title="Dualism in cosmology">dualistic opposition</a> to God. In the <a href="/wiki/Biblical_apocrypha" title="Biblical apocrypha">apocryphal</a> <a href="/wiki/Book_of_Jubilees" title="Book of Jubilees">Book of Jubilees</a>, Yahweh grants the satan (referred to as <a href="/wiki/Mastema" title="Mastema">Mastema</a>) authority over a <a href="/wiki/Watcher_(angel)" title="Watcher (angel)">group of fallen angels</a>, or <a href="/wiki/Nephilim" title="Nephilim">their offspring</a>, to tempt humans to sin and punish them. </p><p>Although the <a href="/wiki/Book_of_Genesis" title="Book of Genesis">Book of Genesis</a> does not mention him, Christians often identify the <a href="/wiki/Serpents_in_the_Bible" title="Serpents in the Bible">serpent in the Garden of Eden</a> as Satan. In the <a href="/wiki/Synoptic_Gospels" title="Synoptic Gospels">Synoptic Gospels</a>, Satan <a href="/wiki/Temptation_of_Christ" title="Temptation of Christ">tempts Jesus in the desert</a> and is identified as the cause of illness and temptation. In the <a href="/wiki/Book_of_Revelation" title="Book of Revelation">Book of Revelation</a>, Satan appears as a <a href="/wiki/Serpents_in_the_Bible#Ancient_serpent" title="Serpents in the Bible">Great Red Dragon</a>, who is defeated by <a href="/wiki/Michael_(archangel)" title="Michael (archangel)">Michael the Archangel</a> and cast down from Heaven. He is later bound for <a href="/wiki/Millennialism" title="Millennialism">one thousand years</a>, but is briefly set free before being ultimately defeated and cast into the <a href="/wiki/Lake_of_fire" title="Lake of fire">Lake of Fire</a>. </p><p>In the Middle Ages, Satan played a minimal role in <a href="/wiki/Christian_theology" title="Christian theology">Christian theology</a> and was used as a <a href="/wiki/Comic_relief" title="Comic relief">comic relief</a> figure in <a href="/wiki/Mystery_plays" class="mw-redirect" title="Mystery plays">mystery plays</a>. During the <a href="/wiki/Early_modern_period" title="Early modern period">early modern period</a>, Satan's significance greatly increased as beliefs such as <a href="/wiki/Spirit_possession" title="Spirit possession">demonic possession</a> and <a href="/wiki/European_witchcraft" title="European witchcraft">witchcraft</a> became more prevalent. During the <a href="/wiki/Age_of_Enlightenment" title="Age of Enlightenment">Age of Enlightenment</a>, belief in the existence of Satan was harshly criticized by thinkers such as <a href="/wiki/Voltaire" title="Voltaire">Voltaire</a>. Nonetheless, belief in Satan has persisted, particularly in the <a href="/wiki/Americas" title="Americas">Americas</a>. </p><p>Although Satan is generally viewed as evil, some groups have very different beliefs. In <a href="/wiki/Theistic_Satanism" title="Theistic Satanism">theistic Satanism</a>, Satan is considered a deity who is either worshipped or revered. In <a href="/wiki/LaVeyan_Satanism" title="LaVeyan Satanism">LaVeyan Satanism</a>, Satan is a symbol of virtuous characteristics and liberty. Satan's appearance is never described in the Bible, but, since the ninth century, he has often been shown in <a href="/wiki/Christian_art" title="Christian art">Christian art</a> with horns, cloven hooves, unusually hairy legs, and a tail, often naked and holding a pitchfork.
