Satan is not the facilitator in hell. In fact he fears hell because hell is the place of torment for him and his angels and for sin. Since he doesn't want to go to hell, yet he cannot escape this, he tries so much to take along with him what God treasures - man. He will deceive man and make man love sin, be one with sin so that man would be identified with sin so that when sin is thrown in hell man will go along with it.
Answer: Judaism does not have a concept of hell, a place of eternal damnation, nor is one mentioned in the Torah (OT). It does have gehanim a place were a soul might be sent, for a maximum of a year, to be cleansed of it sins.
Judaism's concept of a Satan is any Angel whose mission in this world is one that we would perceive as bad. A Satan has no other special attributes or power. A Satan is a loyal servant of G-d, as are all Angels.
ANSWER
No. Hell is not a fiery place where bad people or unbelievers go to be tortured by fire for eternity. Hell is death with no hope of resurrection. If one understands the condition of the dead (conscious of nothing and doing nothing) then it would be clear that Satan cannot "facilitate" anything in hell because it is a place of inactivity.

∙ 8y agoThe role of Satan has evolved over time, in both the Jewish and Christian religions.
Prior to the sixth century BCE Babylonian Exile, Jews did not believe in heaven and hell as destinations for the departed - all souls simply went to sheol, a joyless state similar to spiritual semiconsciousness.
Modern Judaism sees Satan as an assistant to God and in no way an adversary. His role is to help determine the righteousness of the people. An excellent example of this is to be found in the Book of Job. In this, God discussed with Satan, in heaven, what he had been doing. He then gave Satan the challenge to make the righteous Job show lack of belief in God. God told Satan to perform any evil that he needed to do, as long as he did not touch Job. When this failed, and Job continued to show faith in God, God gave Satan a second challenge, in which he could even do evil to the person of Job.
In Christian belief, Satan is the ruler of hell. However, this is not directly supported by The Bible and many practising Christians do not literally believe this position.

If Satan was forced to leave heaven because he committed sin and rules hell why would he punish the sinners because they only did as he did?
Answer 1First of all, according to the Bible, Satan was forced to leave Heaven, not Hell. Second, Satan will not punish people in Hell. He will himself be punished in Hell, along with everyone else who ends up there. There are many misconceptions about these things that are often portrayed on TV and in magazines, etc. Another fallacy is that Satan is ruling Hell. The Bible does not teach this. It does teach that there are demons that are following Satan right now, on Earth, but once they are in Hell, they will not have a kingdom of any kind. They will be suffering.Answer 2Satan LIKES to see people suffer. He longs to take revenge on God. If you go to hell you cannot go back..Catholic AnswerNobody is forced, and hell is not a place. Hell is the state of being alienated from God, and Satan chose this of his own free will. In other words, there was no hell before Satan created it by rejected God. Satan does not "rule" hell, again, hell is not a place, hell is eternal suffering because one has rejected the only thing which will fulfill one - and that is God. Satan endures hell, he suffers hell, and he hates God so he tempts humans into choosing hell and rejecting God because he hates God and is attempting to frustrate God's plans.
