beskrivelse:
Good Shepherd mosaic, floor of Basilica of Santa Maria Assunta, Aquileia,1st half of the 4th century.
Christ speaks of his role as the Good Shepherd in the Gospel of John (10:11-15):[1]
11 I am the good shepherd: the good shepherd giveth his life for the sheep.
12 But he that is an hireling, and not the shepherd, whose own the sheep are not, seeth the wolf coming, and leaveth the sheep, and fleeth: and the wolf catcheth them, and scattereth the sheep.
13 The hireling fleeth, because he is an hireling, and careth not for the sheep.
14 I am the good shepherd, and know my sheep, and am known of mine.
15 As the Father knoweth me, even so know I the Father: and I lay down my life for the sheep.
