John 10:26

John 10:26

24 Then the Jews surrounded Him and said to Him, “How long do You keep us in¹ doubt? If You are the Christ, tell us plainly.”

25 Jesus answered them, “I told you, and you do not believe. ^aThe works that I do in My Father’s name, they ^bbear witness of Me.

26 But ^ayou do not believe, because you are not of My sheep,¹ as I said to you.

27 ^aMy sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me.

28 And I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish; neither shall anyone snatch them out of My hand.

29 ^aMy Father, ^bwho has given them to Me, is greater than all; and no one is able to snatch them out of My Father’s hand.

30 ^aI and My Father are one.”

Renewed Efforts to Stone Jesus

31 Then ^athe Jews took up stones again to stone Him.

32 Jesus answered them, “Many good works I have shown you from My Father. For which of those works do you stone Me?”

Because ye are not of my sheep (oti ek twn probatwn mou). This had been the point in the allegory of the Good Shepherd. In fact, they were the children of the devil in spirit and conduct (John 8:43), pious ecclesiastics though they seemed, veritable wolves in sheep's clothing (Matthew 7:15).
