Adam and eve were in the Garden and the serpent came to them. So, satan had already fell. Or at least before Adam and eve.

more study....Isa 14:12
12 How you have fallen from heaven,
O morning star, son of the dawn!
You have been cast down to the earth,
NIV
looking into my dictionary of old testament words. earth n. means underworld. so in that aspect, satan was fallen first to an underworld.

In ancient Jewish tradition Satan is simply an angel doing the work that God assigned to Satan to do.

The word Satan means challenger. With the idea of Satan challenging us, or tempting if you will. This description sees Satan as the angel who is the embodiment of man's challenges. This idea of Satan works closely with God as an integral part of Gods plan for us. His job is to make choosing good over evil enough of a challenge so that it becomes clear to us that there can be only one meaningful or logical choice.

Contrast this to Christianity, which sees Satan as God's opponent. In Jewish thought, the idea that there exists anything capable of setting itself up as God's opponent would be considered polytheistic or setting up the devil to be an equally powerful polarity to god or a demigod.

Oddly, proof for The Christian satan/devil mythology is supposedly found in the ancient Jewish texts that were borrowed to create the bible. One can’t help but wonder how Christians came up with such a fantastically different interpretation of Gods assistant Satan in their theology.

Other hints about Satan’s role in human relations can be seen if you look at the name Lucifer. It meaning in the original tongue translates as Light bearer or light bringer. Essentially the bringer of enlightenment. The temptations of the Satan idea bring all of us eventually into Gods light. Hardly the Evil entity of Christian mythology.

Creation came first. The begining of the Bible talks about the world being created. What Satan wanted was to rule, over the world people all. He was selfish so the world being created would have to be first for him to want to rule over them. Understand?

Let's see here... Satan's fall came about the time that Gilligan found that crate full of radioactive seeds, and the creation of the Earth was about the time that Spock's brain was removed. Hmm. I think both of those were after that time that James West fought that guy with the Civil War era army tank, and that was LONG after Pinocchio was turned into a donkey.

Hope this helps.

The original Aramaic words translated as "Satan" and "Devil" mean "opposer" and "deceiver". According to most interpretations of the Bible, Satan became an opposer and deceiver with his actions in the Garden of Eden.

The fall of Lucifer came after there was man on Earth. Satan was his lieutenant and followed him in rebellion. They then corrupted our planetary prince, Caligastia (whom we call the devil). All three were defeated by Christ during his Earthly incarnation.

Since Satan doesn't exist, the creation of the Earth must have come first.

Please read the bible for yourself. Religion is spread through ignorance. Please do not be ignorant when it comes to religion. If you actually read the bible, Satan actually gave man the knowledge of good and evil. This is something that god did NOT want us to have! Read on in the bible and you will see that God kills millions and millions of people. Through floods and plagues god kills. Satan never killed anyone. So please read the bible and see that God is evil and Satan is a teacher. I myself do not believe in the bible because I cannot believe that any god would EVER need to kill.
