2426,ENT_ISR_MASTEMA,aligned_with,ENT_ISR_SATAN,high,"Mastema (""Hostility / Enmity"") in Jubilees and Satan in Job and the DSS (especially the Community Rule and War Scroll) serve the same structural function — the adversarial/accusatory divine agent who tests, afflicts, and accuses humanity before God. In Jubilees 17:16, Mastema brings the accusation that prompts God to test Abraham (the binding of Isaac): ""Mastema came and said before God, 'Behold, Abraham loves Isaac, his son, and he delights in him above all things. Tell him to offer him as a burnt offering on the altar.'"" This is the exact role of the satan figure in Job 1:9-11. In Jubilees 48:1-18, Mastema actively assists the Egyptians against Moses — precisely the adversarial role the Devil plays in Christian typological readings. Most scholars treat Mastema as the Jubilees-tradition name for the same divine-adversary function that the DSS and later Christian tradition calls ""Satan.""
