Collocation: ἀστὴρ πρωϊνός
morning star, bright star in the morning sky (an idiom, literally: morning star) a planet which is conspicuous in the morning sky (usually either Venus or Mars) In REV 2:28 the singular pronoun αὐτῷ refers to any and all of the persons in Thyatira, and therefore it is usually best rendered as plural. A literal rendering of REV 2:28 may be confusing, since it would suggest that God would be handing over the morning star to persons in Thyatira. A more satisfactory rendering may be ‘I will cause the morning star to shine upon them’ or possibly ‘I will bring light into their hearts.’
