The Lord is our shepherd (Ps). At the end, at his coming, he will hand over the kingdom to his Father (2). He will "judge between one sheep and another, between rams and goats" (1), between those who have lived lives for others, and those who have lived for themselves (3). Ez 34:11-12, 15-17 Ps 23:1-3, 5-6 1 Cor 15:20-26, 28 Mt 25:31-46
