Footnotes
- 15 Grk “a certain man.” The Greek word ἄνθρωπος (anthrōpos) is used here in a somewhat generic sense.
- 16 This individual with a hundred sheep is a shepherd of modest means, as flocks often had up to two hundred head of sheep.
- 17 Look for the one that went astray. The parable pictures God’s pursuit of the sinner. On the image of Jesus as the Good Shepherd, see John 10:1–18.
