The Life and Times of Jesus the Messiah • Appendix IX
Targum: people shall pass under the hands of the Messiah to be numbered
He Calls His Own
Jeremiah spoke of God gathering His flock with authority.
Old Testament
Jeremiah 33:13
He will give a shout, like those who tread the grapes, against all who live on the earth. He will count them as his flock.
New Testament
John 10:3
He calls his own sheep by name and leads them out.
Why This Matters
Jeremiah spoke of God gathering His flock with authority. Jesus identifies Himself as the good shepherd who calls His own sheep by name. The cosmic shepherd knows each one personally.
Reflection
Lord, give me courage to speak life, mercy, and hope. Through He Calls His Own, train my hands and words for Your mission.
