Should not the shepherds feed the flock? |
Bible Question:
I'm thinking of Jesus as the "Good Shepherd". John 10:14, "I am the *Good *Shepherd, and I know my own, and My own know Me." Is this not the same Shepherd of the 23rd Psalm? Psalm 23:1, "The Lord is my Shepherd,/ I shall not want." I would like to compare Ezekiel 34 with John 10 and talk about the Shepherd. Ezekiel 34:5, "And they were scattered for lack of a *Shepherd,/ and they became food for every beast of the field and were scattered." Ezekiel 34:8, "...My flock has even become food for all the beasts of the field for lack of a *Shepherd,/ and My shepherds did not search for My flock, but rather the shepherds fed themselves and did not feed (My) flock." Contrast John 10:14, "I am the Good Shepherd; and I/ know My own and My own know (Me)." Is this not the same Shepherd?; both OT and new? From the heart, Ray |
Bible Answer: ray this is just my opinion but I see the ezekiel description of the shepherd or for that matter a lack of one referring to the future plight of the jews and the state of israel |
