1 | What is the morning star here? | Rev 2:28 | Morant61 | 80711 | ||
Greetings Darcy! The basic approach to a word study is as follows: 1) How is a particular word or phrase used in a certain book? 2) How is a particular word or phrase used by a particular author? 3) How is a particular word or phrase used in the Bible? 4) How is a particular word or phrase used in a particular culture? Sometimes, step one will answer the question, as in this case. Who is the 'morning star'? Rev. 22:16 answers that question: "I, Jesus, have sent my angel to give you this testimony for the churches. I am the Root and the Offspring of David, and the bright Morning Star." Your Brother in Christ, Tim Moran |

2 | What is the morning star here? | Rev 2:28 | Ray | 80855 | ||
Hi Tim, You didn't list here how the particular word is used in context. In Revelation 2:27 the one who overcomes is given the holy spirit in my way of thinking. That is where the power and authority is. What we hold fast to until He comes, v.25, is the word of truth, the gospel, the holy spirit if you will. Now, on the other hand, the context for Rev 22:16 is the great I am; Father, Son, and Holy Spirit; Root, Offspring, and Star (Bright and Morning). Again, I believe that the Scriptures talk of the Holy Spirit and the holy spirit. The Giver and the gift. The Giver and what is received or given. Here to my mind Rev 2:28 should be understood as the gift of the holy spirit which is from the Spirit and spoken from God. See also 2 Peter 1:21. What do you think? From the heart, Ray |
