I think he looks more like Donald Sumpter (Maester Luwin).

That's the actor who plays the Bad Guy.
Looks lighter skinned there. I wonder if it was just the lighting or if they used makeup?
It is far better for the truth to tear my flesh to pieces, then for my soul to wander through darkness in eternal damnation.

Jet: So what kind of woman is she? What's Julia like?
Faye: Ordinary. The kind of beautiful, dangerous ordinary that you just can't leave alone.
Jet: I see.
Faye: Like an angel from the underworld. Or a devil from Paradise.

The Minsky Moment

A bigger question is why the character is in the series at all.  In the Old Testament, satan is a generic noun, not a specific individuated being.

He makes an appearance in the Goy part of the Bible.

Shouldn't that be the second season?

What?  I was hoping there would be an entire season devoted to the books of Maccabees.

Yeah sometimes when I read the OT I am sometimes rather surprised at how different the actual text is from what I was told about it.  No Satan in the garden of Eden for example.  Alot of interpretations got latched onto it over time.
