NASB | Revelation 22:16 ¶ "I, Jesus, have sent My angel to testify to you these things for the churches. I am the root and the descendant of David, the bright morning star." |
AMPLIFIED 2015 | Revelation 22:16 ¶ "I, Jesus, have sent My angel to testify to you and to give you assurance of these things for the churches. I am the Root (the Source, the Life) and the Offspring of David, the radiant and bright Morning Star." [Num 24:17; Is 11:1, 10] |
Bible Question: what does Christ's title of "Bright Morning Star" in Revelation 22:16 mean? |
Bible Answer: Greetings Natoochton, Jesus mentions that He is the root and the descendant of David, the bright morning star, in Rev. 22:16. A quick look at Numbers 24:17 shows a prophecy in which the Messianic line (ultimately Christ) is described as "a star".. And, just as David would 'crush through the forehead of Moab', so Christ will crush through the darkness of this world and usher in a new Day for those who are redeemed in His Second Coming. Blessings to you, Makarios |
