John 10:1
The Good Shepherd
SUMMARY OF JOHN 10: The Sheepfold. The Shepherd of the Sheep. The
Hireling. The Feast of Dedication. The Jews Seek to Stone Jesus. He
Teaches Beyond Jordan.
He that entereth not by the door into the sheepfold. The sheepfold
is a figure of the church, the door into which is Christ. The
sheepfolds of the East are large enclosures, open to the sky, but
walled around with reeds or stones or brick in order to afford a
protection against robbers, wolves, and other beasts of prey. There is
a large door in which the shepherd enters with the sheep.
