Let's work through this logically:


Lighting in HEBREW (Jesus' language!) is BARAK - This is true and well known.

the Heights of Heaven in HEBREW is BAMA - Actually, 'Bama' just means 'Entrance, gathering place, ascent'. I admit that I'm not the most experienced Hebrew speaker, but I've never heard it used referring to the heavens.

In hebrew the connecting word "vau" is u or O. - Actually, the letter is called 'vav' and is pronounced either as the letter 'V' or as 'oo' as in 'book', depending on context.

So Jesus REALLY SAID: "I saw Satan as BARAK O BAMA" - Well, no. For your logic to hold, Jesus would have had to have said Barak Ooo-Shamayim.



Actually, no. Even if we assume that every single translation you made was correct, your statement doesn't hold internal consistency. That would mean 'Lightning AND heaven', not 'Lightning FROM heaven. That would be Barak B'Shamayim. (or Barak B'Bama, if you still want to insist that 'Bama' means heaven)


And, frankly, do you really believe that the Antichrist would be so goddamn stupid as to have an alias that would give himself away?
