No, that the snake was Satan is Biblical. Rev 20:2, He laid hold of the dragon, that serpent of old, who is the Devil and Satan, and bound him for a thousand years.

Quote:2 Satan tempted Yeshua because he was ordered to by yhwh as a test for Yeshua.

Citation?

Job 1:12.

Boru

Job 1:12 - And the Lord said to Satan, “Behold, all that he has is in your power; only do not lay a hand on his person.” So Satan went out from the presence of the Lord.

Again, God didn't order it, and Satan wasn't coerced. 

I assume you didn't actually put the verse in because you knew it didn't support you. So, why even pretend? It's really just fascinating how you guys want Satan to be the good guy.

Possibly, however it doesn't absolve the onlooker of blame for not doing anything to help. And if the onlooker is a god, with all the power that goes with the job, that culpability ramps off the charts.

Would Suoerman still be considered a good guy if he stood by and did nothing while some crime was committed? How many murders and rapes do you have to watch happen before you officially lose your superhero badge?
Not to mention, god isn't subject to being harmed himself. Jeebus likes to watch.
