(Show All Books | Show All Chapters)

This Chapter Verse Commentaries:

Rejoice with me (suncharè„te moi). Second aorist passive of sunchairò„, an old and common verb for mutual joy as in Phi 2:17. Joy demands fellowship. Same form in Luk 15:9. So the shepherd calls together (sunkalei, note sun again) both his friends and his neighbours. This picture of the Good Shepherd has captured the eye of many artists through the ages.
