Ezekiel 34
1 A reproof of the shepherds.7 God's judgment against them.11 His providence over his flock.20 The kingdom of Christ. 1 the shepherds.The shepherds of Israel, signify their kings and princes, priests and prophets; the flock, the whole of the people; the fat and wool, the tithes and offerings, taxes and imposts: these they exacted with great rigour, and even oppressed and destroyed the people to enrich themselves; but they bestowed no pains to provide for the welfare of the state, or for the souls of those entrusted to them. They knew nothing about their flock: it might be diseased, infirm, bruised, maimed, strayed, or lost, for they watched not over them. 33:24; Jer 2:8; 3:15; 10:21; 12:10; Joh 10:1,2,12Woe.8-10; 13:19; Jer 23:1; Mic 3:1-3,11,12; Zep 3:3,4; Zec 11:17Mt 24:48-51; Lu 12:42-46; 20:46,47; Ro 16:18; 2Pe 2:3feed.2Sa 5:2; Ps 78:71,72; Isa 40:11; Joh 21:15-17; Ac 20:26,291Pe 5:2-4 eat.Isa 56:11,12; Zec 11:5,16ye kill.19:3,6; 22:25-28; 33:25,26; 1Ki 21:13-16; 2Ki 21:16; Isa 1:10,15Jer 2:30; 22:17; La 4:13; Mic 3:1-3; Zep 3:3 diseased.16; Isa 56:10; Jer 8:22; Zec 11:15,16; Mt 9:36; Heb 12:12sought.Mt 10:6; 18:12,13; Lu 15:4-6but with.Ex 1:13,14; Jer 22:13; Mt 21:35; 24:49; 2Co 1:24; Jas 5:1-61Pe 5:2,3; Re 13:14-17; 17:5,6 they were.6; 33:21,28; 1Ki 22:17; 2Ch 18:16; Jer 23:2; 50:6,17; Zec 13:7Mt 9:36because there is no shepherd. or, without a shepherd, and sover. 8Zec 10:2,3and they became.8; Isa 56:9; Jer 12:9-12; Joh 10:2; Ac 20:29-31 wandered.7:16; Jer 13:16; 40:11,12; Heb 11:37,38; 1Pe 2:25my flock.Joh 10:16and none.Ps 142:4; Jer 5:1 9; Ps 82:1-7; Isa 1:10; Jer 13:13,18; 22:2,3; Mic 3:8,9; Mal 2:1Mt 23:13-36; Lu 11:39-54 prey.5,6,31the shepherds.2,3,10,18; Ac 20:33; 1Co 9:15; 2Pe 2:13; Jude 1:12 9 I am.5:8; 13:8; 21:3; 35:3; Jer 21:13; 50:31; Na 2:13; Zec 10:3; 1Pe 3:12and I will.3:18,20; 33:6-8; Jer 13:18-20; Heb 13:17and cause.1Sa 2:29-36; Jer 39:6; 52:9-11,24-27neither shall.2,8for I will.22; Ps 23:5; 72:12-14; 102:19,20 I.5:8; 6:3; Ge 6:17; Le 26:28; De 32:39; Isa 45:12; 48:15; 51:12Ho 5:14search.Ps 23:1-3; 80:1; 119:176; Isa 40:10,11; 56:8; Jer 23:3; 31:8Mt 13:11,12; Lu 19:10; Joh 10:16 As a shepherd seeketh out.

By David, then, we must understand the Messiah, as the Jews themselves acknowledge, so called because descended from him, and also as being the well beloved, [o agapetos,] Son of the Father, as the name imports, and in whom all the promises made to David were fulfilled.
