John 10:6

6 hoc proverbium dixit eis Iesus illi autem non cognoverunt quid loqueretur eis

John 10:6 Meaning and Commentary

John 10:6

This parable spake Jesus unto them
To the Pharisees, who were with him, ( John 9:40 ) ;

but they understood not what things they were which he spake unto
them;
the things spoken by him being delivered in a parabolical way, though in lively figures, and in terms plain and easy to be understood; yet what through the blindness of their minds, and the hardness of their hearts, and their prejudices in favour of themselves, and against Christ, they did not understand what were meant by them; see ( Matthew 13:13-15 ) .

4 et cum proprias oves emiserit ante eas vadit et oves illum sequuntur quia sciunt vocem eius
5 alienum autem non sequuntur sed fugient ab eo quia non noverunt vocem alienorum
6 hoc proverbium dixit eis Iesus illi autem non cognoverunt quid loqueretur eis
7 dixit ergo eis iterum Iesus amen amen dico vobis quia ego sum ostium ovium
8 omnes quotquot venerunt fures sunt et latrones sed non audierunt eos oves
