The Bible use the word Satan.
You see what is true that Satan is a kind of a word that we call our enemy but one forgets you can be each other's enemy.

The word Satan Present participle of a verb. In old Indian pïyati (he scorns), while it should not be a person noun but a nickname like the word hostile. Like hostile-minded towards others, which can be anyone.
 
In Hebrew scripture, what you have called the old testament, the word satan is not used as a name.

US is told that Satan in Hebrew is called the Prosecutor but everybody can be the Prosecutor, so it makes not much different.

You’ve shown here that you don’t know Hebrew. You’ve shown elsewhere that you really do not know much about Judaism. That you lack knowledge of either is something that could be corrected if you took the time and made the effort. You don’t have to. You’re not required to.

Here’s the thing though. You shouldn’t make comments about, you shouldn’t make judgments about, things you know nothing about.
 
Māra, "the killer", "the tempter", from the word maraṇā (death), which plays a similar role like Satan, is aside of the meaning as mental quality feeding defilements, actually the leader of the Devas ("angles") in the Happy realms, dwelling in the realms of "Gods in power of creation of others".

The different uses can be likewise applied to "Satan".

Of course it's always a matter of the "Mara" within, eg. defilements, how one acts, since nobody else could do one do anything then just oneself, good householder.

I know I know Mr. RibbiO. I have demons too. I get allergic from studying. Really. Can we work together in trust when we join the same forum. This forum is not just only for Judaists. Not everybody speaks Hebrew. I was just noticing that learning always cost money. I bought a paper a Christian paper I receive every weak. But I want to reach the poor. So why is it expensive. I weep inside. I make no progress. We are here to help. Not to brag or show of our rich om. The Bible teaches us to bring the good news to the Jewish people something Christians refuse to do yet they talk to Christians who already have hope and have no hopelessness. They can celebrate expensive Christmas. They are not poor. But they bring not the news of hope what was asked by the Lord. Do we rich need more. Do we take water out the ocean in a bucket and bring back the water to the sea? Bear me. I have my demons to. I can not study. I am allergic to dust.
