Did Jesus Reveal the Name of the Anti-Christ?

Luke 10:18 says,
"And he said unto them, 'I beheld Satan as lightning falling from the heavens.'" These words are written in greek, and translated into english. However, Jesus spoke these words originally in aramaic, which is the most ancient form of hebrew. As you know, the Old Testament was written in hebrew. If a modern Jewish Rabbi were to speak these words today, he would speak them in hebrew, much the same way that Jesus would have spoken them. So in hebrew, Jesus said that he saw Satan falling as lightning from the heavens. So what are the words for lightning, or heavens in hebrew? From the Strong's Hebrew Dictionary, word 1299, a primitive root word is "baraq". Pronounced, "baw-rawk". Now consider this amazing fact, the book of Isaiah is the source of origin for the Christian concept and understanding of Satan, in chapter 14, especially verses 12-19. In Isaiah 14:14, Satan, or Lucifer is credited with these words; "I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the most High".
      In the verses of Isaiah that referred directly to Lucifer, several times it has mentioned that he has fallen from the heights. The hebrew word used in this text for the heights, from which Satan fell, is Strong's hebrew word 1116. Pronounced "baw-maw". Bahmah is most commonly used to refer to a high sacred place. As well to the heights of the heavens, or the clouds. In hebrew, the letter "waw" is often transliterated as a "u". Some scholars use the "o" for this transliteration. It's primarily used as a conjunction. So to join in hebrew poetry the concept of lightning, or "baraq", and the high place, like heaven, or the heights of heaven, the letter u, or sometimes o, the hebrew letter "waw" would be used. So, "Baraq 'O' Bahmah" would be similar to hebrew poetry, or the style written in Isaiah, would literally translate to "Lightning from the Heights". The word for Satan in hebrew is "Satan", pronounced "sa-ton".

So back to Jesus's prophecy, In Luke chapter 10, verse 18.
If a Jewish rabbi today were to say this verse in hebrew today, he would literally say;
"And he said unto them, 'I beheld Satan as 'Baraq O Bahmah'".
Did Jesus reveal to us the name of the Anti-Christ?

I report, you decide.

DISCLAIMER:

This post is not to declare Barack Obama as the anti-christ, but only a statement of fact concerning the use of certain hebrew words in relation to the words spoken by Jesus. The correlations are striking, thus the creation of this post.

    Aramaic and Hebrew are different languages. Aramaic superseded Hebrew in Jesus's lifetime.
