A '''shepherd''' is a caretaker of sheep who is responsible for protecting a flock of sheep in the field from straying or being attacked by predators. Sheep are valuable primarily for the sale value of their wool and meat.

At the time of [[Jesus]], wealth was primarily in form of livestock and the use of shepherds was familiar to most in surrounding areas of [[Jerusalem]]. The fidelity of the good shepherd in protecting his nearly helpless flock was a powerful concept that resonated with the people. [[Jesus]] frequently invoked the image of the shepherds and undoubtedly many of them became [[Christians]] based on His teachings.
