Responce: Actually some scholars don't consider this to be talking about satan at all but rather the king of babylon at that time. so that's one answer. But, if you do here's another answer. Satan would be considered the morning star in the sence that he was the most slendid of all of God's angels his glory surpassed all others. So in that sense he was a morning star. Jesus is refered to as the light because of his revalation. in other words this is a world of darkness(sin) Jesus became the light(redemption). so satan's is physical apperance while Jesus is revalation.

Responce: However Jesus, is the true morning revalation. ( Rev 22:16 is actually refering to Num 24:17) were it says that there will be a star from the line of Judah. Also I can't remeber the verse of hand but I think it's in 1 john it tells believers to beware because the satan can appear to imitate an angel of the light. So to wrap it up satan was the morning star because of apperance, Jesus is the morning revalation because he brought the light into the world of darkness.
