Seems a bit simplistic and not very scholarly.The presentation is sloppy and amateurish,in my opinion.. A few sources would also have been nice.
EG "Baal" was not a name,but a title; it just means 'lord'. The claim for the origin of Satan* is speculation*. As far as I know,there is no credible evidence for a single source for the Satan myth.
*another contender is Ahriman,the antithesis of good,from Zoroastrianism,ca 500 bce,Iran.
