Denmarkfelix - Satan was originally a word in hebrew which meant "enemy". it used to simply say that someone isis you'r enemy, so you would have called him "Satan". later, because of the influance of the zoroastrian deity called "Angra mainyu/Ahriman", which is the anti-god of the zoroastrian mythology, the word "Satan", start to used as a description of a deity, and not merely a word for "enemy". by that time, Satan/Halel, was described as an angel who works under god, and is the one hwo do the "dirty job" for him, such as making Job lifes a living hell. later, by the words "satra achra" from aramic, it became a descripsion for the other side of god, his "dark side" you can say, as satra achra means "the other face", and I am sure you can find similarity between satra and satan.

later, the christianity took a lot of greco-roman deity and tryed to make then "unholy" for their benefites. as such, deity such as venos, who represent the star venos, after all, become more "damned" and "unholy". Halel, now called in latin lucifer, who was known as the "lightbringer", or the "morningstar", and of course, the morningstar is venos, together with that fact, and the fact he is represent "the dark side" of god, and the angel of destraction, the church made him as the devil, the embodiment of all evil and darkness, and rise him to the level of the anti-god, from simply the loyal hanchman of god. that is why, in the storys, he is first described as the greates angel, and later as the devil, who fall from his grace. hope it helps.
