Jesus continues the imagery of shepherding and sheep. The people who heard Him teach still could not grasp the things He said with clarity and precision. This passage exposes the difficult reality that the same group of people, with the same background, culture, and lens for the world, still can land in opposite places when it comes to Jesus. Some people will never believe because they have misplaced expectations and misguided interpretations. If we are sheep that belong to Jesus, though, we will hear and follow His voice.
