John 10:11-18
Jesus says that he is the good shepherd who knows his sheep.
The image of the good shepherd is on that Jesus used to help explain to the people of his time how much he loved them and looked out for them. He also talks about how he knows his sheep and they know him. We might think what image we might use today to describe that same message of God's loving care.
