Among the most tender of Jesus ’ illustrations is the one recorded in John chapter 10, where he likens his close relationship with his followers to that of a shepherd with his sheep.
Di antara perumpamaan - perumpamaan Yesus yang paling lembut terdapat perumpamaan yang dicatat di Yohanes pasal 10; di pasal itu, hubungan akrabnya dengan para pengikutnya ia samakan dengan hubungan seorang gembala dengan domba - dombanya.
