Duality of the Divine and the Demonic Within
The concept of the duality of human nature, expressed through the role-playing of God and Satan, implies that within each person, two fundamentally different principles coexist simultaneously. On one hand, there exists a higher, divine principle, reflected in the image of God, which embodies the ideals of light, order, and moral purity. This principle symbolizes the inner human, capable of finding joy in God's law, of creating, and of striving for the highest truth and love. On the other hand, there is a lower principle within the human, corresponding to the symbol of Satan or the Devil—a force that brings division, inner conflict, enslavement to passions, and a propensity for sinfulness.
