Jesus Christ is the Good Shepherd. Symbolically, his followers are like sheep whom Jesus watches over.

The Lord is my shepherd, Ps. 23: 1. He shall feed his flock like a shepherd, Isa. 40: 11. So will I seek out my sheep, Ezek. 34: 12. I am the good shepherd, John 10: 14-15. Jesus is that great shepherd of the sheep, Heb. 13: 20. He numbereth his sheep and they know him, 1 Ne. 22: 25. The good shepherd calls you in his name, which is Christ, Alma 5: 38, 60. There shall be one fold, and one shepherd, 3 Ne. 15: 21 (John 10: 16).
