Can anyone tell me what this means?

Question

It's from 2 Enoch from the Jewish Pseudepigrapha. "He made Sotona from the heavens so his name was Satomail" I know Satomail is referring to satan but what is Sotona?

Answer 1

Satan = the chief evil spirit; the great adversary of humanity; the devil. Oriigin: bef. 900; Middle/Old English < ... < Greek Satân, Satán < Hebrew śātān adversary (dictionary.reference.com)
Sotona must be a wrong transcription (different pronounciations of o). Satomail.. I have not heard about this, but the il/el ending in Jewish names means God, Lord (like Michael, Raphael, Gabriel, Emmanuel etc)
