The Shepherd, the shepherds, and the Flock: 1 Peter 5:1–5
In 1 Peter 5:1-5 we find a summary statement that speaks to the nature of, and relationships between, Christ, the elders of the church, and the people of God. In this exhortation to men who are called to lead, we also receive important instruction for the entire body, and our eyes are lifted to Jesus, the chief shepherd.
