Satan had aspired to be "Lucifer, son of the morning" (Isaiah 14:12), where "Lucifer" can also be translated "Day-Star" (Hebrew haylel), the bright star of the dawning. Here, however, Satan has been forever banished to the lake of fire. Christ proclaims that He alone is "the bright morning star." At the end of his Revelation, the Lord is reminding all readers that He, not Satan, is the harbinger of eternal light and life. The great conflict of the ages, between Satan and Christ, the old serpent and the promised Seed of the woman, will soon be over. Christ is the true Day-Star, Son of the morning.
