SHEPHERD - S>@ - In a nomadic state of society every man, from the sheikh down to the slave, is more or less a shepherd. The progenitors of the Jews in the patriarchal age were nomads, and their history is rich in scenes of pastoral life. The occupation of tending the flocks was undertaken,not only by the sons of wealthy chiefs, kjv@Genesis:30:29) ff.; kjv@Genesis:37:12 ff., but even by their daughters. kjv@Genesis:29:6-8; kjv@Exodus:2:10) The Egyptian captivity did march to implant a love of settled abode, and consequently we find the tribes which still retained a taste for shepherd life selecting their own quarters apart from their brethren in the transjordanic district. kjv@Numbers:32:1) ff. Thenceforward in Palestine proper the shepherd held a subordinate position. The office of the eastern shepherd, as described in the Bible, was attended with much hardship, and even danger. He was exposed to the extremes of heat and cold, kjv@Genesis:31:40) his food frequently consisted of the precarious supplies afforded by nature, such as the fruit of the "sycamore" or Egyptian fig, kjv@Amos:7:14) the "husks" of the carob tree, kjv@Luke:15:16) and perchance the locusts and wild honey which supported the Baptist, kjv@Matthew:3:4) he had to encounter the attacks of wild beasts, occasionally of the larger species, such as lions, nerves, panthers and bears, ( kjv@1Samuel:17:34; kjv@Isaiah:31:4; kjv@Jeremiah:5:6; kjv@Amos:5:12) nor was he free from the risk of robbers or predators hordes. kjv@Genesis:31:39) To meet these various foes the shepherd’s equipment consisted of the following articles: a mantle, made probably of sheep skin with the fleece on, which he turned inside out in cold weather, as implied in the comparison in kjv@Jeremiah:43:12) (cf. Juv. 14:187.); a scrip or wallet, containing a small amount of food ( kjv@1Samuel:17:40) a sling, which is still the favorite weapon of the Bedouin shepherd, ( kjv@1Samuel:17:40) and lastly, a which served the double purpose of a weapon against foes and a crook for the management of the flock. ( kjv@1Samuel:17:40; kjv@Psalms:23:4; kjv@Zechariah:11:7) If the shepherd was at a distance from his home, he was provided with a light tent, (Solomon kjv@1:8; Jeremiah:35:7) the removal of which was easily effected. kjv@Isaiah:38:12) In certain localities, moreover, towers were erected for the double purpose of spying an enemy at a distance and of protecting the flock; such towers were erected by Uzziah and Jotham, ( kjv@2Chronicles:26:10 kjv@2Chronicles:27:4) while their existence in earlier times is testified by the name Migdal-edar kjv@Genesis:35:21) Authorized Version "a tower of Edar;" kjv@Micah:4:8) Authorized Version "tower of the flock." The routine of the shepherd’s duties appears to have been as follows: In the morning he led forth his flock from the fold kjv@John:10:4) which he did by going before them and calling to them, as is still usual in the East; arrived at the pasturage he watched the flock with the assistance of dogs, kjv@Job:30:1) and should any sheep stray, he had to search for it until he found it, kjv@Ezekiel:34:12; kjv@Luke:15:4) he supplied them with water, either at a running stream or at troughs attached to wells, kjv@Genesis:29:7 kjv@Genesis:30:38; kjv@Exodus:2:16; kjv@Psalms:23:2) at evening he brought them back to the fold, and reckoned them to see that none were missing, by passing them "under the rod" as they entered the door of the enclosure kjv@Leviticus:27:32; kjv@Ezekiel:20:37) checking each sheep, as it passed, by a motion of the hand, kjv@Jeremiah:33:13) and, finally, he watched the entrance of the fold throughout the night, acting as porter. kjv@John:10:3)
See Sheepfold, under SHEEP
The shepherd’s office thus required great watchfulness, particularly by night. kjv@Luke:2:8) cf. Nahu 3:18 It also required tenderness toward the young and feeble, kjv@Isaiah:40:11) particularly in driving them to and from the pasturage. kjv@Genesis:33:13) In large establishments there are various grades of shepherds, the highest being styled "rulers," kjv@Genesis:47:6) or "chief shepherds," ( kjv@1Peter:5:4) in a royal household the title of abbir "mighty," was bestowed on the person who held the post. ( kjv@1Samuel:21:7) SHEEP

Shepherd @ a word naturally of frequent occurence in Scripture. Sometimes the word "pastor" is used instead kjv@Jeremiah:2:8 kjv@Jeremiah:3:15 kjv@Jeremiah:10:21 ; 12:10; 17:16). This word is used figuratively to represent the relation of rulers to their subjects and of God to his people kjv@Psalms:23:1 kjv@Psalms:80:1; kjv@Isaiah:40:11 kjv@Isaiah:44:28; kjv@Jeremiah:25:34-35; kjv@Nahum:3:18; kjv@John:10:11 kjv@John:10:14 kjv@Hebrews:13:20; kjv@1Peter:2:25 kjv@1Peter:5:4). The duties of a shepherd in an unenclosed country like Palestine were very onerous. "In early morning he led forth the flock from the fold, marching at its head to the spot where they were to be pastured. Here he watched them all day, taking care that none of the sheep strayed, and if any for a time eluded his watch and wandered away from the rest, seeking diligently till he found and brought it back. In those lands sheep require to be supplied regularly with water, and the shepherd for this purpose has to guide them either to some running stream or to wells dug in the wilderness and furnished with troughs. At night he brought the flock home to the fold, counting them as they passed under the rod at the door to assure himself that none were missing. Nor did his labours always end with sunset. Often he had to guard the fold through the dark hours from the attack of wild beasts, or the wily attempts of the prowling thief (see kjv@1Samuel:17:34).", Deane's David.
