14 "I am the good shepherd, and I know my own sheep, and I am known by them. 15 Just as the Father knows me, I also know the Father, and I lay down my life on behalf of the sheep. 16 I also have other sheep, that are not of this fold;"This fold" presumably refers to Israel, so the "other sheep" would be Gentiles. Paul develops this theme in Ephesians 2:11-22. I must bring them also, and they will listen to my voice; and there will be one flock, one shepherd.
