John Trapp on Jeremiah 23:4

Ver. 4. And I will ſet up Shepherds over them] Pastors after mine own heart: ſuch as were Zorobabel, Ezra, Nehemiah, Jehoſhua the High Prieſt, Hagge[illegible: 1 letter], Zachary, Malachy, &c. Chriſtian Princes and Paſtors under the Goſpel, but eſpecially Chriſt the chief Shepherd and Biſhop of our ſouls: who is therefore here promiſed, ver. 5, 6. for the comfort of Gods Elect, who might well be troubled at that former dreadful denunciation, chap. 22.29, 30.

And they ſhall fear no more] But enjoy ſpiritual ſecurity, and be of an invincible courage.

Bern. Neither ſhall they be lacking] Chriſt the good ſhepherd will ſee to that, Joh. 10.28, 29. his underſhepherds alſo, (whoſe Motto is Praeſis ut proſis) will have a care.
