Revelation 9:11 tells us that Satan is that fallen star of Revelation 9:1.
The abyss is where our Lord descended and from where he led captivity captive (Psalm 16:10; 68:18; Ephesians 4:8-10; Romans 10:7).

Ezekiel 9:1-11 precedes the LORD's abandoning his Temple, Jerusalem, and his people, with only those who grieve and lament over all the detestable things that are done in it, being spared (Ezekiel 9:4; 10:1-2, 4, 6-8, 18-19). This sealing foreshadows the sealing of Revelation 9:4.
