John 10:7-9
1599 Geneva Bible
7 Then said Jesus unto them again, Verily, verily I say unto you, I am that door of the sheep.
8 [a]All that [b]ever came before me, are thieves and robbers: but the sheep did not hear them.
9 [c]I am that door: by me if any man enter in, he shall be saved, and shall [d]go in, and go out, and find pasture.

- John 10:8 It maketh no matter, how many, neither how old the false teachers there have been.
- John 10:8 These large terms must be applied to the matter he speaketh of. And therefore when he calleth himself the door, he calleth all them thieves and robbers which take upon them this name of Door, which none of the Prophets can, for they showed the sheep, that Christ was the door.
- John 10:9 Only Christ is the true Pastor, and that only is the true Church, which acknowledgeth him to be properly their only Pastor: To him are opposite thieves which feed not the sheep, but kill them: and hirelings also, which forsake the flock in time of danger, because they feed it only for their own profit and gains.
- John 10:9 That is, shall live safely: so use the Jews to speak, as Deut. 26:6, and yet there is a peculiar alluding to the shepherd’s office.
