Matthew 9:36
Douay-Rheims
And seeing the multitudes, he had compassion on them: because they were distressed, and lying like sheep that have no shepherd.
Remigius of Auxerre
Herein Christ shews in Himself the disposition of the good shepherd and not that of the hireling. Why He pitied them is added, Because they were troubled1, and sick1 as sheep that have no shepherd—troubled either by dæmons, or by divers sicknesses and infirmities.
