Playing with the Devil (Czech: Hrátky s čertem) is a 1945 Czech fairy-tale comedy play by playwright Jan Drda. It was adapted into a 1956 film directed by Josef Mach starring popular actor Josef Bek, with animated decorations by Josef Lada. In 1979, another film adaptation was made in Poland which is the one most memorable in European culture and continues to make this play popular. It was directed by Tadeusz Lis and starred well-known Polish actors Janusz Gajos, Jerzy Kamas, Marian Kociniak, Marek Kondrat.
The devil (from Greek: διάβολος or diábolos = slanderer or accuser) is believed in many religions, myths and cultures to be a supernatural entity that is the personification of evil and the archenemy of God and humankind. The nature of the role varies greatly, ranging from being an effective opposite force to the creator god, locked in an eons long struggle for human souls on what may seem even terms (to the point of dualistic ditheism/bitheism), to being a comical figure of fun or an abstract aspect of the individual human condition.
While mainstream Judaism contains no overt concept of a devil, Christianity and Islam have variously regarded the devil as a rebellious fallen angel or jinn that tempts humans to sin, if not committing evil deeds himself. In these religions – particularly during periods of division or external threat – the devil has assumed more of a dualistic status commonly associated with heretics, infidels, and other unbelievers. As such, the devil is seen as an allegory that represents a crisis of faith, individualism, free will, wisdom and enlightenment.
The Devil (XV) is the fifteenth trump or Major Arcana card in most traditional Tarot decks. It is used in game playing as well as in divination.
In the Rider-Waite-Smith deck, the Devil is derived in part from Eliphas Levi's famous illustration "Baphomet" in his Dogme et Rituel de la Haute Magie (1855). In the Rider-Waite-Smith deck, the Devil has harpy feet, ram horns, bat wings, a reversed pentagram on the forehead, a raised right hand and lowered left hand with a torch. He squats on a square pedestal with two naked human demons—one male, one female, with tails who are chained to it. Baphomet has bird wings, goat horns, a raised right hand, lowered left hand, breasts and a torch on his head and also combines human and animal features. Many modern Tarot decks portray the Devil as a satyr-like creature. According to Waite, the Devil is standing on an altar.
In pre-Eliphas Levi Tarot decks like the Tarot of Marseille, the devil is portrayed with breasts, a face on the belly, eyes on the knees, lion feet and male genitalia. He also has bat-like wings, antlers, a raised right hand, a lowered left hand and a staff. Two creatures with antlers, hooves and tails are bound to his round pedestal.
Iblis (Azerbaijani: İblis / ابلیس) is a verse play (verse dram), tragedy in four acts of an Azerbaijani poet and playwright Huseyn Javid, written in 1918. Ideological credo of Javid is revealed in the play, a mysthic flaw is strongly expressed and the poet’s thoughts about a problem of human’s happiness followed by the imperialistic war are reflected in the poem.
Initially the tragedy was staged in 1920, by Abbas Mirza Sharifzadeh. It’s noted that, at the beginning of 1920’s the play had a great success. “Iblis” is considered as the first verse play of Azerbaijan, which was put on the stage. It is also noted that the play is significant not only for its complex philosophic character, and also for a romantic style.
The play was published in 1924, for the first time. Later, it was published in 1927, 1959, 1969, 1982, 2001 and 2005. In the Small Soviet Encyclopedia of 1931, the work was called a poem. It is considered one of the best plays of Huseyn Javid.

We are looking for impressions and comments on the video! Also, please subscribe to the channel. === This is a video of a showdown between Jesus Christ and the devil making a cake. This is a comical video where the devil gets in the way of Jesus Christ. This video does not impose or criticize the values or ideas of any particular religion. I chose this video as a theme because angels and devils always exist in the human heart, and I wanted to depict the devil's side who tries to live cunningly and the angel's side who tries to live seriously. That's because. I hope that by delivering a comical message to the viewers who watched the video, it will give them an opportunity to reconsider their current state of mind. Drawing images yourself requires a huge amount of time and skill, so we ...
Revelers in Guatemala City gave the devil a taste of his own medicine, by burning an effigy of Old Nick. The centuries-old ritual, known as 'the burning of the devil,' marks the start of the holiday season. To celebrate, a giant devil figure is crafted out of cardboard, outfitted with a trident, and painted a classic, hellfire red. Then, as the sun sets, the Prince of Darkness goes up in flames. The bonfire symbolizes purification and the destruction of evil.

It's been rainin' in the mountains and the river's on
the rise.
And we cannot hardly reach the other side.
And the devil, he's in trouble; I can see it in his
eyes.
If you don't give him shelter, he won't have no place
to hide.
The devil deals in dyin' and he travels in a hearse.
He treats you like a dog, now; he'd like to treat you
worse.
But he don't have the answers, an' if he did, he'd lie.
The devil is a joker an' he don't want you alive.
An' some you win, an' some you lose,
An' the winner's all grin and the losers say:
"Deal the cards again.
"Won't you deal the cards again."
L.A.'s in California, Lord, I been there many times.
It is an education, to be sure.
I loved a lovely lady there, she opened up my eyes.
She ran a dancin' school; it was a front, she loved the
Lord.
It's been rainin' in the mountains and the river's on
the rise.
And we cannot hardly reach the other side.
And the devil, he's in trouble; I can see it in his
eyes.
If you don't give him shelter, he'll have no place to
hide.
It's been rainin' in the mountains and the river's on

And we cannot hardly reach the other side.
And the devil, he's in trouble; I can see it in his

If you don't give him shelter, he'll have no place to
hide.
Oh, it's rainin' in the mountains and the river's on
the rise.
And we cannot hardly reach the other side.
