It is commonly known that the Bible does not contain systematic hamartiology or satanology.Also the Biblical demonology depends on the historical development and the influence of neighbouring countries’ relig-ions.This article’s aim is to analyse the etymology and meaning of the con-cept of satan in the most popular texts directly referring to the figure of Satan (Book of Job 6 and Book of Zechariah 3).The author tried to confront fragments from the Job and Zechariah with the texts that were (re)interpreted satanologically in the intertestamental period and by early Christian theology (Isaiah 14,12-14 and Ezekiel 28,12-15) and also with the narration contained in Genesis 3, which is considered the key text concerning the so-called „fall” of man in the Christian theology. The analysis was completed by references to intertestamental texts.A text that proved particularly helpful in the reconstruction of the aetiology of sin was Adam's Repentance, known under various titles thanks to its copies in various languages, which represents the so-called Adamite tradition in theology (hamartiology). A number of similarities between the syncretic Biblical hamartiology and Adam’s Repentance were shown (among others, the common nature of the first sin committed by Satan and the first sin committed by Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden).
