Isaiah 40:11

feed—including all a shepherd's care—"tend" (Ezekiel 34:23; Psalms 23:1; Hebrews 13:20; I Peter 2:25).

carry—applicable to Messiah's restoration of Israel, as sheep scattered in all lands, and unable to move of themselves to their own land (Psalms 80:1; Jeremiah 23:3). As Israel was "carried from the womb" (that is, in its earliest days) (Isaiah 63:9, Isaiah 63:11-12; Psalms 77:20), so it shall be in "old age" (that is, its latter days) (Isaiah 46:3-4).

gently lead—as a thoughtful shepherd does the ewes "giving suck" (Margin) (Genesis 33:13-14).
