CATTLE & SHEEP --- SHEPHERDS

The conflict between shepherds and farmers is as old as the story of Cain and Abel.

In our day, each family owns a few sheep, and
everyone pays a couple of coins to the simplest person in the village
to look after their sheep for them.

Yeshua often used the imagery of shepherds and sheep when teaching ...
like when he said to us:
If a man has a hundred sheep, and one of them goes astray,
does he not leave the ninety-nine
and go to the mountains to seek the one that is straying? (Matthew 18:12)

In this way, Yeshua showed us that even the lowliest among us
is to be fully welcomed into the kingdom to come.
Arieh synch: They want us to have the heart of a Sheppard, to look around us, to watch the sheep, to be ready if a sheep is sick, to go to help; they want us to look around us on people, and to see the miserable, to see the weak ones, to see those who need encouragement.
