Notes on thia verse:

“His arm”: A picture of God’s omnipotence. The same arm that powerfully scatters the Jews all over the earth in judgment is to overcome Israel’s oppressors (verse 10), and to tenderly feed and lead His flock.

Again, Jesus is the great Shepherd. Notice in the following Scripture, that Jesus is the great Shepherd and the believers are His sheep.

Matthew 25:32 “And before him shall be gathered all nations: and he shall separate them one from another, as a shepherd divideth [his] sheep from the goats:”

In the following Scripture, Jesus calls Himself the good Shepherd.

John 10:11 “I am the good shepherd: the good shepherd giveth his life for the sheep.”

Notice in the following Scripture, how the good Shepherd keeps His sheep from straying.

1 Peter 2:25 “For ye were as sheep going astray; but are now returned unto the Shepherd and Bishop of your souls.” You can easily see from all this that Jesus is the Shepherd.
