>Do you suggest common notions of satan are irreconcilable with the christian framework?
Christianity never determined who this Satan was, because people were killed and burned because of him, that is, God could not defeat Satan and people was forced to create the Inquisition and kill witches and sorcerers, as well as just heretics (of the same Christian faith, but slightly different views). Besides, in Christianity there is a corrupted world, a fall from grace. This is pure gnosticism, only in Christianity people themselves are to blame and not the demiurge archon
>What would you suggest I read about Ahriman?
Just reading about him on wiki is enough.
I will only add that Zoroaster demonized the devas, Indra (Heracles) and Rudra (Apollo), but since the dragon slayer hero still had to be, the whitewashed Fereydun was invented. (nevertheless, I love mythology and delved into this topic and it seems that Heracles is a fallen angel)
Zoroaster also demonized the devas (related to Dyaus - Zeus - Deuz)
Deva + EL = Devil
Dia (distortion Deva) + Bol (Bel / Baal) = Diabol (os)
with this, a play on words arose in Slavic languages, for example Veles / Volos / Velnyas (haired wolf snake god), only without the prefix de. Zoroastrians began to depict devas as hairy and demonic, in Japanese there is the same play on words, kami is a deity, okami is a wolf, and kami is also associated with hair.
Hercules is also Nergal(Melqart) (he has too many names, like Apollo, whose name is deciphered as Aplu Enlil(Aplu/Apaliunas/Abaddon) , son of Enlil, and among the Etruscans he sat underground and was called Suri/Soranus) is depicted from above, one-eyed (like Odin, like Dajjall) and for some reason sticking out snakes from his shoulders, like Zahhak, although his analogue Fereydun kills Zahhak, but Fereydun himself turned into a dragon in one myth (in old paintings into a Chinese dragon) and... do not forget, Ahuramazda is the twin of Ahriman (hehehe)
