A starsymbolizes the years between the creation of Adam and Eve, and the life of Jesus of Nazareth [c. 7-4 B.C.E. - c. A.D. 30]. A symbol refers to the use of something that can be seen, to represent something that can't be seen. Adam and Eve symbolize the fall of human creation from divine grace. Jesus Christ symbolizes the redemption of human creation.
In between the fall and the redemption, and indeed beyond, is the enduring symbol of the star. Adam's and Eve's fall from divine grace is symbolized by the Devil Lucifer, whose name means 'light bearer' or 'shining star'. But Jesus' redeeming life counters the hope shattering star of the Devil. Jesus' life saving and life giving mission is signaled and symbolized by his own bright star over Bethlehem.
In between the creation of Adam and Eve, and the existence of Jesus Christ is the life of Abraham. God promised Abraham that his descendants would be as numerous as the stars in the skies. And indeed, the symbol of the modern state of Israel is the star of David.
