Such things as 'rebuking the devil'; quoting him scripture, etc. etc. Does the Bible instruct Christians to actually speak to Satan?

Jesus talked to the devil....but He had a purpose always and He did it in a specific way. He quoted scripture, commanded them in a loud authoritative way to leave someone alone.
We are to resist the devil so I wouldn't go hunting him up but if he should get in our path in this war we should not be afraid. We have the sword of the Spirit which is the Word of God and we are to use it.

Grace unto you, and peace,
from God our Father and the Lord J->C.
If you have even a little seed faith(even a little grace, since the law is not of faith: Gal 3), then go ahead and say to this (Horeb-bull) Mtn (Law): be processed to the "be removed from me" sector of the body and flushed as dung (Mt 21:21)
Which is to allegory say to d-evil (law): go jump in the dead sea, which is also notably vanishing lately; or to say get thee behind me Satan is to allegory say Law is as Dung.
What's old, faulty, and "ready to vanish": Hebrews 8, "shall vanish": 1Corinthians 13. Law is getting pretty "old", and so is the dead sea. Law had an expiry date, expired l-o-n-g ago. It's now as spiritual food poison & was always both natural and spiritual abuse: abusive, destructive(not constructive).
Law: the schoolmaster which failed every student
Grace: has but one opinion of you all: approved
Law: "both good and evil", obviously ends bad: "evil".
("Evil concupiscence" seems as pandemic as aids)
The GRACE(ONLY) of our Lord J->C with you->all. Amen.

It doesn't really matter since the devil doesn't exist.

No we are not to communicate with him, we are to reject him every opportunity we get.
