What is revealed by the fact that Satan, not even once, called God by His personal name in the Scriptures?

For example, at Matthew 4:1-10, Jesus used God´s personal name several times. Satan, on the other hand, always addressed him as God.

Update:

@WwwdotBibleSelectordotcom: Sorry to contradict you but all the passages were quoted from the Hebrew Scriptures. Jesus wouldn´t have used a title to replace His Father´s personal name from the Scriptures.

At Matthew 4:10, he quoted from Deut 6:13

American Standard Version

Thou shalt fear Jehovah thy God; and him shalt thou serve, and shalt swear by his name.

Darby Bible Translation

Thou shalt fear Jehovah thy God, and serve him, and shalt swear by his name.

Update 2:

At Matthew 4:7, he quoted from Deut 6:16

American Standard Version

Ye shall not tempt Jehovah your God, as ye tempted him in Massah.

Young's Literal Translation

'Ye do not try Jehovah your God as ye tried in Massah;

Darby Bible Translation

Ye shall not tempt Jehovah your God, as ye tempted him in Massah

    Satan and Devil are titles and not the personal name of the one who became 'resister' and 'slanderer'.

    Satan is striving to make God's name unknown, 1st with the Jews and 2nd with Jesus' followers.

    Yet Jesus said, 'he had made God's name know and would give it to his disciples. Why?

    So they could come to know the love Jehovah has for us.

    1) What is revealed by the fact that Satan, not even once, called God by His personal name in the Scriptures?

    Nothing whatsoever.

    2) For example, at Matthew 4:1-10, Jesus used God´s personal name several times.

    Not according to any known original language copy of that passage.

    Not even one original language copy of that passage - or of ANY other Bible passage - attests that Jesus "used God's personal name" even once.

    3) Satan, on the other hand, always addressed him as God.

    Not according to the Bible.

    Conclusion: you should be more careful with your statements.

    It reveals that Satan has the same mentality as many atheists, and I'm referring to those that cannot use the word 'God'. Instead they use 'skydaddy' or 'sky critter', or some other such puerile name.

    It tells me that Satan the devil really hates the name Jehovah! And there's a crapload of people here just like him.

    The Father doesn't have a personal name relative to humans.
