About this Item
Categories: Homilies
Description: Jesus sums up a long Biblical tradition when he says "I am the good shepherd." The prophets and the psalmist had yearned for a time when God himself would come to shepherd his people Israel. This yearning is realized in Jesus himself. What makes him good? The Gospel for today specifies two things: his willingness to lay down his life for his sheep, and the fact that he knows his sheep personally, recognizing their voices.
