Ezekiel 34:12

Context
34:12 As a shepherd seeks out his flock when he is among his scattered sheep, so I will seek out my flock. I will rescue them from all the places where they have been scattered on a cloudy, dark day. 1 

Ezekiel 34:23

Context

34:23 I will set one shepherd over them, and he will feed them – namely, my servant David. 2  He will feed them and will be their shepherd.

1 sn The imagery may reflect the overthrow of the Israelites by the Babylonians in 587/6 b.c.

2 sn The messianic king is here called “David” (see Jer 30:9 and Hos 3:5, as well as Isa 11:1 and Mic 5:2) because he will fulfill the Davidic royal ideal depicted in the prophets and royal psalms (see Ps 2, 89).
