What character traits can we see in Satan from the book of Job?
Does he sneak into the presence of God by mixing with the other "sons of Gods" or is he summoned against his will?
It seems he likes vague answers..."where ya been Satan" to which he replies, "Oh, I've been round and about..."
He also seems to think that mankind will only serve God in good times...a revelation about his own blindness and his own character, only searching for selfish gain?
Satan asks many questions throughout the Bible. He does not always lie outright by declaring a falsehood, but seems to ask many questions ("Has God said?).. I find this fascinating (this use of questions designed to plant doubt into our minds).
Any comments or quotes on this?
