It is the duty of a good shepherd to shear his sheep, not to skin them.

I am the good shepherd, and know my sheep, and am known of mine.

The Shepherd does not feed on the green land_ He derives joy and pleasure to see His Sheep doing that.

Without a shepherd, sheep are not a flock

The shepherd always tries to persuade the sheep that their interests and his own are the same.

Many sheep but one Shepherd.
