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’s 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.

Red is the color of fire. It is assumed he is the ruler of the darkness and fire, so most people usually mix the red with black. Satan is also portrayed to be a very ugly person with eyebrows shaped really scary. The fact is, Satan is a spirit. He is working in the hearts of many people on the earth and the reason we are so naive with this is because we think he will pierce us in the heart to enter. In all, Satan can be inside without us knowing. We have to pray daily to God for his protection over us day and night.

Satan doesn't have red skin.He is a spirit just like God & he can take any form he chooses.
PPL just draw him with red skin because he is associated with eternal flames in hell & everyone knows a sunburn or a regular burn turns red.

Its a history of the evolution of the myth of satan from an anthropological standppoint and touches on that very thing.

Why do you have pink hair?
Uh...no one has any idea what Satan REALLY looks like, or if he even has a physical form for the most part.

The depiction of devil or devil differs in religions. notwithstanding the overall clarification for his being depicted as having purple epidermis is because he's has a courting with fireplace/ hell. So if an angel is depicted as a being white and performance wings that are symbols of peace , devil is depicted as purple it truly is a sort of fireplace , sinful pastime and probability. desire I helped

Well, no one really knows what the devil looks like but I think he's shown as having red skin because its supposedly an "evil" color.

If he was transparent you would bump into him, and you would not know if he was sleeping in bed next to you. So he is created red as a sign of danger.
