But he that is an hireling, and not the shepherd, whose own the sheep are not, seeth the wolf coming, and leaveth the sheep, and fleeth: and the wolf catcheth them, and scattereth the sheep.
Pero el que es solo un empleado , no el verdadero pastor que es dueño de las ovejas, cuando ve venir el peligro, huye. Abandona las ovejas y se escapa, entonces el lobo las ataca y dispersa todo el rebaño.
El empleado abandona las ovejas cuando hay peligro, pero el verdadero pastor las protege porque son suyas.
📚 Contexto Histórico
In the historical context of first-century Judea, shepherds were essential figures who protected and guided their flocks in a harsh, predator-filled environment, symbolizing leadership and care in ancient agrarian societies. Jesus used this imagery in John 10 as part of His discourse to the Pharisees, contrasting His selfless devotion as the Good Shepherd with the negligence of hired workers who had no personal stake in the sheep. This teaching highlighted the failures of religious leaders who prioritized their own interests over the spiritual well-being of God's people.
