\subsection{\John 10}
|
|
\subsubsection{\Iesous as the Good Shepherd}
|
|
\lettrine[lraise=0]{T}{ruly} truly I say to you,
|
|
the [one] not coming in through the gate into the sheep-pen,
|
|
but coming up from elsewhere, he is [a] thief and [a] robber.
|
|
\VS{2} But the [one] coming in through the gate is [the] shepherd of the sheep.
|
|
\VS{3} The gatekeeper opens [the gate] to him,
|
|
and the sheep hear his voice, and he calls%
|
|
\footnote{verb form of 'voice'}
|
|
his own sheep by name, and he leads them out.
|
|
\VS{4} When he has brought out all his own, he goes before them,
|
|
and the sheep follow him, because they know his voice.
|
|
\VS{5} They will \negd{not} follow [the voice belonging] to [a] stranger,
|
|
but will flee from him, because they do not know the voice of strangers.
|
|
\VS{6} \Iesous told them this parable;
|
|
but they did not know what it was that he was speaking to them.
|
|
|
|
\VS{7} So \Iesous said again,
|
|
Truly truly I say to you that I am the gate of the sheep.
|
|
\VS{8} All who came before me%
|
|
\footnote{Omit "before me": \papyrus{45,75} \sinaiticus{}\vaticanus{}}
|
|
are thieves and robbers.
|
|
But the sheep have not heard them.
|
|
\VS{9} I am the gate. If anyone enter through me, he will be saved,
|
|
and he will come in and will go out and will find pasture.
|
|
\VS{10} The thief does not come except in order that he steal and
|
|
slaughter\footnote{ThUO: `slaughter' or `sacrifice'.
|
|
This word is used both for slaughtering livestock,
|
|
and for temple sacrifices.
|
|
It is not the usual word for `kill', which is APOKTEINO }
|
|
and destroy;\fnApollumi{}
|
|
I came in order that they have \zoe{}-life\fnZoe{} and have [it] exceedingly.%
|
|
\footnote{Compare \myxref{Luke}{12}{15}}
|
|
|
|
\VS{11} I am the good shepherd.
|
|
The good shepherd commits%
|
|
\footnote{"commits": Generally translated ``lays down,''
|
|
implying sacrificial-death.
|
|
But the verb here (TIThEMI) means an ongoing life commitment ---
|
|
perhaps unto death. }
|
|
his psyche-life\fnPsyche{} in behalf of the sheep.
|
|
\VS{12} But the hired-hand moreover not being shepherd,
|
|
of whom the sheep are not his own,
|
|
he sees the wolf coming and leaves the sheep and flees ---
|
|
and the wolf seizes them and scatters [them] ---
|
|
\VS{13} [he flees] because he is [a] hired-hand
|
|
and the sheep are not [a] concern to him.
|
|
|
|
\VS{14} I am the good shepherd, and I know mine and mine know me,
|
|
\VS{15} just as the father knows me, and I know the father,
|
|
and I commit my psyche-life\fnPsyche{} in behalf of the sheep.
|
|
\VS{16} And I have other sheep that are not of this sheep-pen,
|
|
and I must lead [them], and they will hear my voice,
|
|
and they will become one flock, one shepherd.
|
|
\VS{17} Because of this the father agape-loves me,
|
|
because I commit my psyche-life\fnPsyche{}, in order that I again receive it.
|
|
\VS{18} No one takes it from me,
|
|
but I dedicate it myself. I have authority to dedicate it,
|
|
and I have authority to again receive it;
|
|
this commandment I received from my father.
|
|
|
|
\VS{19} [A] division again came to pass among the Jews because of these words.
|
|
\VS{20} And many among them were saying,
|
|
He has [a] demon and is insane; Wwhy do you hear him?
|
|
\VS{21} Others were saying, These words are not [those] of [one] demon-possessed.
|
|
Is [a] demon able to open [the] eyes of [the] blind\fnGrammarIndicatesNo{}?
|
|
|
|
\subsubsection{The Festival of Dedication}
|
|
\VS{22} The Festival of Dedication then came to pass in Jerusalem.
|
|
It was winter,
|
|
\VS{23} and \Iesous was walking in the temple in the porch of Solomon.
|
|
\VS{24} So the Jews encircled him and were saying to him,
|
|
How long do you hold our psyche-lives\fnPsyche{} [in suspense]?
|
|
If you are the Anointed\fnChristos{} [One], tell us openly.
|
|
\VS{25} \Iesous answered them, I told you and you did not believe.
|
|
The works that I do in the name of my father, these witness concerning me,
|
|
\VS{26} but you do not believe, because you are not of my sheep.
|
|
\VS{27} My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me,
|
|
\VS{28} and I give them zoe-life\fnZoe{} eternal,
|
|
and they will \negd{not} perish\footnote{or ``be ruined''} to eternity,
|
|
and no one will seize them from my hand.
|
|
\VS{29} My father who has given [them]%
|
|
\footnote{``My father who has given [them] \papyrus{66,75}\koine{};
|
|
``What my father has given" \sinaiticus{}B \vulgate{}}
|
|
to me is greater than all,
|
|
and no one is able to be seizing [them] from the hand of my father.
|
|
\VS{30} I and my father are one [thing].
|
|
|
|
\VS{31} The Jews again took up stones in order that they stone him.
|
|
\VS{32} \Iesous answered them,
|
|
Many good works I showed you from my father;
|
|
for what sort of work among them do you stone me?
|
|
\VS{33} The Jews answered him,
|
|
Concerning [a] good work we do not stone you but concerning [God] slander,
|
|
and because you being [a] man make yourself God.
|
|
|
|
\VS{34} \Iesous answered them,
|
|
Is it not written in your law that\footnote{Ps.82:6}
|
|
\begin{verse}
|
|
I said, You are gods?
|
|
\end{verse}
|
|
\VS{35} If he called them ``gods,'' to whom the word of God came,
|
|
and the scripture cannot be loosed,
|
|
\VS{36} Do you say of him,
|
|
whom the father made holy and sent into the world\fnKosmos{},
|
|
that: You are slandering [God], because I said: I am [the] Son of God?
|
|
\VS{37} If I am not doing the works of my father, be not trusting in me.
|
|
\VS{38} But if I do [them], and if you are not trusting in me,
|
|
[then] be trusting in the works,
|
|
in order that you know and be knowing that the father [is] in me and I in the father.
|
|
\VS{39} So they were again seeking to arrest him, and he went out from their hand.
|
|
|
|
\VS{40} And he departed again to the other side of the \Jordan
|
|
to the place where \John was first baptizing, and he abided there.
|
|
\VS{41} And many came to him and were saying that \John on the one hand made no sign,
|
|
but on the other everything as much as \John said concerning this [one] was true.
|
|
\VS{42} And many trusted\fnPistis{} in him there.
