Christ Himself
Some scholars consider the reference to be to Christ himself. Professor Andrew Hill has written: “Jesus Christ is described as the "˜morning star' in 2 Peter 1:19 (phosphoros) and in Revelation 2:28 (aster proinos), and He identifies Himself as "˜the bright morning star' (ho aster ho lampros ho proninos) in Revelation 22:16" (413). He goes on to point out that this “star" symbolism reflects the Old Testament and inter-testament emphasis on the “celestial" nature of the coming Messiah (cf. Numbers 24:17; Malachi 4:2).
William Barclay suggested several ideas. He thought the expression could signify the coming resurrection of the righteous. Just as the “morning star" breaks forth from the darkness of night, so the Lord's people will break out of the darkness of the grave (1957, 67). Later, however, he came to a different conclusion. He was “quite certain" that the “correct interpretation" is this. The “morning star" is Christ himself. “If the Christian is true, when life comes to an end he will possess Christ, never to lose him again" (1959, 140).
