João 10:2 Meaning and Commentary

John 10:2

But he that entereth in by the door
With a divine commission, and by a divine authority, who comes not of himself, but is sent; does not take the honour to himself, or thrust in himself, and assume an office to himself, but is called unto it, and invested in it, he

is the shepherd of the sheep;
by whom Christ means himself, as is evident from ( John 10:11 John 10:14 ) , whose the sheep are, and who takes care of them, and feeds them, as a shepherd does his flock; and which holds true of any under shepherd, having his mission and commission, and deriving his authority from Christ.

João 10:2 In-Context

1 “Eu asseguro a vocês que aquele que não entra no aprisco das ovelhas pela porta, mas sobe por outro lugar, é ladrão e assaltante.
2 Aquele que entra pela porta é o pastor das ovelhas.
3 O porteiro abre-lhe a porta, e as ovelhas ouvem a sua voz. Ele chama as suas ovelhas pelo nome e as leva para fora.
4 Depois de conduzir para fora todas as suas ovelhas, vai adiante delas, e estas o seguem, porque conhecem a sua voz.
5 Mas nunca seguirão um estranho; na verdade, fugirão dele, porque não reconhecem a voz de estranhos”.
