John 10:27-29
Summary for John 10:27-29: 10:27-29 a As the good shepherd, Jesus would die for his sheep and secure them from all predators and thieves (10:1 b, 8 c, 11 d; cp. Ezek 34:22-23 e).• The power of the Father, appearing in Christ, keeps his sheep safe. Believers cannot be taken from Jesus because no one is more powerful than he is. Their security is not sustained by their own efforts, but by Christ.
• The word translated snatch implies violence (as in John 6:15 f).
