Aratus says,—

“She is both large and bright, but they—the kids—

Shine somewhat feebly on Auriga's wrist.”

Is not this the Great Shepherd gathering the lambs in His arm? and carrying them in His bosom? Is He not saying:

“I will save My flock,

And they shall no more be a prey.”

(Ezek. xxxiv. 22.)

“And David my servant shall be king over them,

And they shall have one shepherd.”

(ib. xxxvii. 24.)
