John 10:8

Berean Standard Bible (BSB)

All who came before Me were thieves and robbers, but the sheep did not listen to them.

In context

6 Jesus spoke to them using this illustration, but they did not understand what He was telling them.

7 So He said to them again, “Truly, truly, I tell you, I am the gate for the sheep.

8 All who came before Me were thieves and robbers, but the sheep did not listen to them.

9 I am the gate. If anyone enters through Me, he will be saved. He will come in and go out and find pasture.

10 The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy. I have come that they may have life, and have it in all its fullness.
