Morning Star

The planet Venus is usually regarded as the morning star. This planet is visible just before daybreak. Hence the morning star is used as a metaphor for the coming light of God, the light that dispels the darkness.
In the New Testament this image is used in various ways:

  • In Revelation 22:16 the morning star is used as a metaphor for Christ.
  • In 2 Peter 1:19 we read that at the end of time the morning star will arise in the hearts of Christians. There the star is the symbol of the coming of Jesus Christ to the dark world.
  • In Revelation 2:28 the morning star points to the promise to believers that they will reign with Christ in God’s Kingdom.
