in judaism the god satan is the enemy of yahweh, the god of the jews. the hebrew name satan literally means enemy, the adversary, the accuser etc. it is useful to think of satan as the god of the gentiles. according to the jews yahweh is the one true god and all the pagan gods of the gentiles are false gods, idols. collectively, all the heathen gods of the gentiles could be described as satanic i.e. enemies of yahweh and the jewish people. this metaphysical dualism was inherited by the jews disciples the christians, who portrayed as satanic evil and demonic all the pagan gods of their enemies that they forcibly converted to christianity or killed. the god of the jews and the son of god jesus became the only true god, and jesus christs enemy satan the god that all the pagans worshipped (including the jews themselves, which creates the absurdity of the jews being described as worshipping satan, an absurdity that continues to this day. it is not satan that the jews worship but yahweh!). to put things into proper perspective before the transvaluation of values done by the judeo-christians, the ancient world was pagan and polytheistic and the jews cut themselves off from the people around them. they not only saw themselves as unique and the rest of mankind as goyim, but metaphysically they viewed themselves as having knowledge of the one true god, a monotheistic god whose chosen people they were, in contrast to the false polytheistic gods of the pagan goyim around them, who their god yhwh-jhvh had given them dominion over
