What does the Bible say about Satan's role as an accuser?

In Zechariah 3, we see Satan acting as an accuser, not only accusing Joshua the high priest but also through him, suggesting doubts about the faith of God's people. He is called an adversary, emphasizing his role in resisting God's children. This fine print of accusal can be seen throughout Scripture, where he tempts and deceives, presenting accusations before God against believers, as noted in the case of Peter, where Jesus stated that Satan desired to sift him like wheat. However, we have an advocate in Christ, who intercedes for us, reminding us that our standing before God is secured by His righteousness, not our failures.
