Satan knows that God knows that there is too much
evil within Satan for it to be possible for him to be forgiven.
Satan understands that even if he were to beg for forgiveness, God knows
that Satan wouldn’t genuinely wish to be forgiven.
God is as far from granting forgiveness to Satan as Satan is from begging
God to grant him peace. Neither one
is going to happen, and this is what Satan is trying to say in these lines.
In a way Satan is again blaming God for the
events that have taken place. Satan
originally blames god in Book 4:58-61. Satan
states that had God made him an angel with less power than he was given,
everything would have been fine because Satan would never have become power
hungry. Now Satan is blaming God
for his inability to repent for his sins. In
knowing that God would never accept an apology given by Satan, Satan is
unwilling to try to repent
