We are certain that the Fourth Gospel depends upon Mark, hence 

 Mk. 6 ; 34 may have suggested this O.T. figure (Isa. 40 ; 11, 53 ; 6, 

 Ezek. 34 ; 23, 37 ; 24, Ps. 23, Zech. 13 ; 7), which " John " elaborates. 

 What Mark only implies our author explicitly states, whereas the 

 author of the Fourth Gospel takes up the form given in I Peter and 

 puts it in a teaching of Jesus concerning himself. In Heb. 13 ; 20 

 Jesus is spoken of as tov Tcotjxsva twv 7cpo[3aT:tov tov [jiyav. The 

 context, however, has nothing to suggest John. On the other hand 

 the " Parable of the Good Shepherd " contains much to suggest 

 I Pt. 5 ; 2—4 and 2 ; 25. It would seem, therefore, that our Epistle 

 served again as a connecting link between the earlier tradition and 

 the later development.

We have noted in Galatians (Ex. 5) the idea of " the believer's 

 security," and have been led to believe that our Epistle depends 

 there upon Paul. The Fourth Gospel has an extended discussion on 

 the subject (e. g. 10 ; 28, 29, 17 ; 11, 12, 15) and it is not unreasonable 

 to suppose that the development may have traveled b}^ way of 

 I Peter.

The relationship between these citations has been touched upon 

 in the note on Ex. 6. Dependence here seems probable.

This parallel is suggestive especially since the " example " occurs 

 in a narrative in John. It is to be noted also that our Epistle has 

 much to say about " humility."
