7734. “不肯容他们去” 表他们不想离开他们. 这从 “不肯” 和 “容去” 的含义清楚可知: “不肯” 是指他们不想; “容去” 是指离开, 也如前所述 (7707节), 那里有同样的话.

It's pretty easy for most people to read the Bible and get a sense for what “sheep” means without any help. They are simple, peaceful, trusting and willing to be led, and the image of the Lord as both a shepherd and a lamb reinforces a sense of innocence. And indeed, sheep represent people who desire what is good, to be good, and to do what is good. Arriving at such a state requires the work of a lifetime -- learning what's right, setting aside what's evil, determining to follow the Lord -- but once we arrive at such a state, we can be cared for by the Lord in peace.
