Excerpt from Christology of the Old Testament, Vol. 4: And a Commentary on the Messianic Predictions Who is it, who is here commissioned to feed the flock Very many of the earlier expositors assumed that these words were addressed, without the prophet's intervention, to the Angel of the Lord, who was essentially one with God Himself, in other words, to the Messiah, in whom, according to the teaching of the Old Testament, this Angel was eventually to appear. The fact that there is something forced, in the assumption that another person is introduced in this sudden manner, and without farther notice, is not sufficient to prove that the opinion is incorrect. The abrupt introduction of new persons, whose presence is merely indicated by their speeches and actions, is a thing Of frequent occurrence in the prophecies, and was a necessary result of the dramatic character of the prophetical writings. And there is the less ground for objecting to the sudden appearance of the Angel of the Lord in the present instance, from the fact that throughout the whole of the first part he is constantly repre sented as one of the persons employed. But a comparison of ver. 15 sqq. Is amply sufficient to overthrow this exposition. The person, who is referred to in these verses, must be the same as the subject of ver. 4 sqq. This is evident from the expression, take unto thee again the instruments of the evil shepherd. The word fir again is a proof that the person who takes the instruments of the evil shepherd in this case, is the very same as the person who took the instruments of the wicked shepherd in ver. 7 sqq. But the contents Of ver. 15 sqq. Do not apply in any way to the Angel of the Lord or the Messiah, as the supporters of this view are obliged to confess. It cannot, therefore, be to him that reference is made in the fourth and following verses. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
