The Good Shepherd: Are the "Good Shepherd" references in John 10, referring to Psalm 23 or to the shepherds in Ezekiel 34? [John 10:11, Ezekiel 34:23, Psalm 23, Michah 5:4, Zechariah 11:4-14]. The Vine & the Pruned Branches: Is the idea that the alternate translation about being "lifted-up" is more accurate than the branches being pruned off, gathered, and burned? [John 15:2-6].
