Charles Spurgeon Commentary Ezekiel 34:22-23

"therefore will I save my flock, and they shall no more be a prey; and I will judge between sheep and sheep. And I will set up one shepherd over them, and he shall feed them, even my servant David; he shall feed them, and he shall be their shepherd." — Ezekiel 34:22-23 (ASV)

Therefore will I save my flock, and they shall no more be a prey; and I will judge between cattle and cattle. And I will set up one shepherd over them,

There is only one Shepherd now. As for the rest of us, we are only under-shepherds; there is only one Shepherd, our Lord Jesus Christ. We are simply the men he employs to see after his sheep a little; but he is the Great Shepherd, and when he shall appear, we also shall appear with him in glory. I will set up one shepherd over them,

Therefore will I save my flock, and they shall no more be a prey; and I will judge between cattle and cattle. And I will set up one shepherd over them.

You know his name. My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me, and I give unto my sheep eternal life.

You know that voice; it makes you glad to think he is so near you.

I will set up one shepherd. That is glorious. He is of God's setting up; Who can put him down again?
