Context — The Good Shepherdgenerated
John 10:5 is part of Jesus' teaching about being the Good Shepherd. He contrasts Himself with strangers, emphasizing that His followers will not recognize or follow anyone who does not belong to them. This is a reflection of the relationship between the shepherd and the sheep, where the sheep know their shepherd's voice and instinctively flee from those who are foreign to them. This teaching illustrates the importance of discernment in recognizing true authority and guidance.

The Key Word — ἀλλοτρίῳ, allotriosgenerated
The word ἀλλότριος (allotrios) is an adjective meaning 'belonging to another' or 'foreign'. It describes someone who is not the keeper or true shepherd of the sheep. The parsing indicates it is in the dative case, singular, masculine, which suggests it refers specifically to a stranger in the context of this verse.
In this context, the sheep's refusal to follow a stranger underscores their loyalty and recognition of their true shepherd, which is a key theme in Jesus' teaching about His role as the protector and guide of His followers.
How Translations Differ — measured against the Berean Standard Biblegenerated
The verse is rendered in the Berean Standard Bible as 'But they will never follow a stranger; in fact, they will flee from him because they do not recognize his voice.' This wording is consistent across several translations, including the KJV and ASV.
Where translations differ is in the rendering of ἀλλοτρίῳ. The BBE uses 'another who is not their keeper', while others maintain 'stranger'. Additionally, the GNV opts for a more simplified 'flee' instead of 'will flee'.
Sentence Structuregenerated
The main verb in this verse is ἀκολουθήσουσιν, they will follow, which governs the structure of the sentence. The verse includes a subordinate clause that describes what the sheep will not do, and an additional clause explaining their reaction to the stranger's voice.
The sentence structure shows a clear contrast between the actions of the sheep and the stranger, emphasizing the sheep's instinctive response to flee from danger, highlighted by the use of conjunctions and clauses that connect their recognition of voice to their behavior.
Septuagint Backgroundgenerated
ἀλλοτρίος is used in the Septuagint to translate Hebrew words that convey the idea of being a stranger or foreigner, such as זוּר (H2114) and נָכְרִי (H5237). This connection reinforces the concept of something or someone that does not belong to the familiar or trusted.
The usage of φωνή in the Septuagint often corresponds to the Hebrew word קוֹל (H6963), which also means voice or sound, indicating a continuity in the understanding of voice across both Testaments.
In plain words — the whole versegenerated
John 10:5 explains that Jesus' followers will not follow someone who is not their shepherd. Instead, they will run away from that person because they do not recognize his voice. This highlights the close relationship between the shepherd and his sheep, where the sheep know and trust their own shepherd.
Frequently Asked Questionsgenerated
It means that true followers of Jesus will instinctively avoid those who do not have their best interests at heart, recognizing the difference between their true shepherd and others.
Sheep recognize the voice of their shepherd through familiarity and trust, having spent time with him and learned to discern his call from that of others.
We learn the importance of discernment in our spiritual lives, understanding who we follow and ensuring that we align ourselves with those who truly care for our well-being.
The shepherd metaphor highlights Jesus' role as a protector and guide, emphasizing the personal relationship He has with His followers and His commitment to their safety.
Reflection Questionsgenerated
- In what ways can I better discern the voices I follow in my life?
- How can I cultivate a deeper relationship with Jesus to recognize His voice more clearly?
- What are some 'strangers' in my life that I need to flee from?
- How does understanding Jesus as my shepherd change the way I view my relationship with Him?

Answer. First, We must distinguish between single persons and the generality of believers. As in a flock the generality keep together, following the voice of the true shepherd, though some particular sheep may wander; so the generality of believers will be found keeping close to the truth and…

The thought is of the flock following the shepherd to the pasture. On the road they would meet other persons whom they would not follow. Some would, as thieves and robbers, seek to lead them away, calling them by their names and imitating their shepherd’s cry; but they have, by long usage, got to know his voice, and will not follow a stranger. But will flee from him.—A strange word is a source of alarm to them. With the known tone of the shepherd’s voice they have learnt to associate protection, guidance, food. His…

AdamClarkeAdam Clarke's Commentary on the BibleVerse 5. And a stranger will they not follow] That is, a man who, pretending to be a shepherd of the flock of God, is a stranger to that salvation which he professes to preach. His mode of preaching soon proves, to those whose hearts are acquainted with the truths of God, that he is a stranger to them; and therefore, knowing him to have got into the fold in an improper way, they consider him a thief, a robber, and a murderer; and who can blame them if they wholly desert his ministry? There are preachers of this kind among all classes.

The Greek word ἀλλότριος (i.e., *allotrios*) is built from the root for 'another' and means belonging to another or foreign. It covers a range of meanings including alien, strange, and hostile, often contrasted with what is one's own. The New Testament uses it in verses like Luke 16:12 and Romans 14:4. Dodson's entry is notably brief, simply defining it as belonging to another person or foreign.

Stranger
This word generally denotes a person from a foreign land residing in Palestine. Such persons enjoyed many privileges in common with the Jews, but still were separate from them. The relation of the Jews to strangers was regulated by special laws (Deut. 23:3; 24:14-21; 25:5; 26:10-13). A special signification is also sometimes attached to this word. In Gen. 23:4 it denotes one resident in a foreign land; Ex. 23:9, one who is not a Jew; Num. 3:10, one who is not of the family of Aaron; Ps. 69:8, an alien or an unknown person. The Jews were allowed to purchase strangers as slaves (
A "stranger," in the technical sense of the term, may be defined to be a person of foreign, i.e. non-Israelitish, extraction resident within the limits of the promised land. He was distinct from the proper "foreigner," inasmuch as the latter still belonged to another country, and would only visit Palestine as a traveller: he was still more distinct from the "nations," or non-Israelite peoples. The term may be compared with our expression "naturalized foreigner." The terms applied to the "stranger" have special reference to the fact of residing in the land. The existence of such a class of persons among the Israelites is easily accounted for the "mixed multitude" that accompanied them out of Egypt, (Exodus 12:38) formed one element the Canaanitish Population,which was never wholly extirpated from their native soil, formed another and…
Is sometimes used in a special sense, easily understood from the context. It usually denotes a foreigner, who is not a native of the land in which he resides, Ge 23:4. The Mosaic Law enjoined a generous hospitality towards foreign residents, saying, "Thou shalt love him as thyself," Le 19:33,34 De 10:18,19 24:17 27:19. They were subject to the law, Ex 20:10 Le 16:20, and were admitted to many of the privileges of the chosen people of God, Nu 9:14 15:14.

δέ (de) is a post-positive particle in Greek, primarily used as a conjunction to connect clauses. It can express contrast (but, on the other hand) or continuation (and, also), and is often used to transition between ideas or to add emphasis. In the New Testament, it appears frequently in various contexts, such as contrasting statements or resuming interrupted discourse, with notable examples in Matthew and 2 Corinthians.

The Greek word οὐ (transliterated as ou) is a primary negative particle meaning 'not' or 'no.' It is used to negate verbs or statements, often appearing in various forms depending on the following sound. In the New Testament, it frequently serves to deny facts and is distinct from another negative particle, μή (transliterated as mē), which is used for prohibitions or wishes.
οὐ, before a vowel with smooth breathing οὐκ, before one with rough breathing οὐχ (but improperly οὐχ ἰδού, Ac 2:7, WH, mg.; cf. WH, Intr., § 409; M, Pr., 44, 244),

μή (mē) is a Greek negative particle used to express subjective negation, often in conditional or hypothetical contexts. It contrasts with οὐ (ou), which indicates absolute denial. μή can function as an adverb meaning 'not' or as a conjunction meaning 'lest.' It appears in various grammatical constructions, including prohibitions and deliberative questions, and is referenced in verses like Matthew 5:29 and John 3:18.
μή,
subjective negative particle,
used where the negation depends on a condition or hypothesis, expressed or understood, as distinct from οὐ, which denies absolutely. μή is used where one thinks a thing is not, as distinct from an absolute negation. As a general rule, οὐ negatives the indic., μή the other moods, incl, ptcp. [In LXX for אֵין, אַיִן, אַל.]
As a neg. adv., not;
with ref. to thought or opinion: Jo 3:18, Tit 1:11, II Pe 1:9.
μή, Sept. for Ox, |X, PN, ἃ particle of negation, which differs from οὐ (which is always an adverb) in that ov denies the thing itself (orto speak technically, denies simply, absolutely, categorically, directly, objectively). but μή denies the thought of the thing, or the thing according to the judgment, opinion, will, purpose, preference, of some one (hence, as we say technically, indirectly, hypothetically, subjectively). This distinction holds also of the compounds οὐδείς, μηδείς, οὐκέτι, μηκέτι, ete.

ἀκολουθέω (akoloutheo) means to follow or accompany, particularly in the context of discipleship. It is derived from the word for 'following' and is often used in the New Testament to describe the act of following Jesus (e.g., Matthew 4:25). The verb typically takes a dative object, indicating the person being followed. There is a note of distinction in usage, as it replaces the verb ἕπομαι in later Greek.

The Greek word ἀλλά (alla) is an adversative particle, meaning 'but' or 'otherwise.' It is derived from the neuter plural of ἄλλος and is used to introduce opposition or contrast in sentences. In the New Testament, it often appears in contexts that involve negation or exceptions, such as in Matthew 5:15 and John 16:2. The lexicons note its stronger adversative force compared to δέ.

φεύγω (pheugo) means to flee or escape, both literally and metaphorically. It is used in various contexts in the New Testament, such as fleeing from danger or shunning vices. The word can be combined with prepositions to indicate direction or the object of flight. Notably, Abbott-Smith mentions its use in Matthew 8:33 and 26:56, while Thayer's entry emphasizes its metaphorical applications in avoiding sin.

The Greek word ἀπό (transliterated as apo) is a preposition meaning 'from' or 'away from,' typically used with the genitive case. It covers a wide range of meanings, including separation, origin, and partitive sense, as well as indicating distance in time or place. In the New Testament, it appears in various contexts, such as indicating motion from a place or the source of something. The entries do not show significant disagreement.

ἀπό, [fr. Hom. down], preposition with the Genitive, (Lat. a, ab, abs, Germ. von, ab, weg, [ef. Eng. of, off ]), Jrom, signifying now Separation, now Origin. On its use in the N.

αὐτός is a pronoun meaning 'self' or 'the same,' used to emphasize distinction or opposition. It can function as a reflexive pronoun and appears frequently in the New Testament, often in contexts that highlight contrast or identity, such as in Luke 5:37 and John 2:25. The entries indicate that it can also be used in various grammatical constructions, including with articles to denote sameness.

The Greek word ὅτι (hoti) is a conjunction primarily meaning 'that' or 'because.' It introduces objective clauses, often following verbs of perception or declaration, and can also serve as a causal particle. The New Testament frequently employs it in this way, such as in Matthew 5:4-12. There is some variation in how lexicons describe its usage, particularly regarding its pleonastic function in direct discourse.
ὅτι [properly neut. of ὅστις], a conjunction [fr. Hom. down], (Lat. quod [ef.

The Greek word οὐ (transliterated as ou) is a primary negative particle meaning 'not' or 'no.' It is used to negate verbs or statements, often appearing in various forms depending on the following sound. In the New Testament, it frequently serves to deny facts and is distinct from another negative particle, μή (transliterated as mē), which is used for prohibitions or wishes.
οὐ, before a vowel with smooth breathing οὐκ, before one with rough breathing οὐχ (but improperly οὐχ ἰδού, Ac 2:7, WH, mg.; cf. WH, Intr., § 409; M, Pr., 44, 244),

not, no, used generally c. indic. and for a denial of fact (cf . μή);
absol. (accented), οὔ, no: Mt 13:29, Jo 1:21 21:5; οὒ οὔ, Mt 5:37, Ja 5:12.
οὐ before a consonant, οὐκ before a vowel with a smooth breathing, and ody before an aspirated vowel ; but sometimes in the best codd. οὐχ occurs even before a smooth breathing; accordingly LT WH mrg. have adopted οὐχ ἰδού, Acts ii. 7; LT οὐχ ᾿Ιουδαϊκῶς, Gal. ii. 14 (see WH.

THE, an adjective or definitive adjective.
1. This adjective is used as a definitive, that is, before nouns which are specific or understood; or it is used to limit their signification to a specific thing or things, or to describe them; as the laws of the twelve tables. the independent tribunals of justice in our country, are the security or private rights, and the best bulwark against arbitrary power. the sun is the source of light and heat.
This he calls the preaching of the cross.
2. the is also used rhetorically before a noun in the singular number, to denote a species by way of distinction; a single thing representing the whole. the fig tree putteth forth her green figs; the almond tree shall flourish; the grasshopper shall be a burden.
3. In poetry, the sometimes loses the final vowel before another vowel.
Th' adorning thee with so much art,

The Greek word ἀλλότριος (i.e., *allotrios*) is built from the root for 'another' and means belonging to another or foreign. It covers a range of meanings including alien, strange, and hostile, often contrasted with what is one's own. The New Testament uses it in verses like Luke 16:12 and Romans 14:4. Dodson's entry is notably brief, simply defining it as belonging to another person or foreign.
ἀλλότριος, -α, -ον
(< ἄλλος),
[in LXX for זוּר, נֵכָר, אַחֵר;]
belonging to another, not one's own (opp. to ἴδιος): Lk 16:12, Ro 14:4 15:20 (Field, Notes, 165 f.), II Co 10:15, 16, I Ti 5:22, He 9:25.
ἀλλότριος, -a, τον; 1. belonging to another (opp. to ἴδιος), not one’s own: Heb. ix. 25; Ro. xiv. 4; xv. 20; 2 Co. x. 15 sq.; 1 Tim. v. 22; Jn. x. 5. in neut., Lk. xvi. 12 (opp. to τὸ ὑμέτερον). 2. foreign, strange: yi, Acts vii. 6; Heb. xi. 9; not of one’s own family, alien, Mt. xvii. 25 sq.; an enemy, Heb. xi. 34, (Hom. I. 5, 214; Xen. an. 3, 5, 5).

P Oxy VII. 1067 ὁ (a very ungrammatical letter of iii/A.D.), μάθε οὖν ὅτι ἀλλοτρίαν γυναῖκαν (/. ἀλλοτρία γυνή) ἐκληρονόμησεν αὐτόν, ““Κπονν then that a strange woman is made his heir” (Ed.): The adjective is common in the sense of alzenus, “belonging to others”: one or two special applications may be cited. A rescript of Gordian (P Tebt Il. 285°), which Wilcken marks as suffering from translation out of Latin, uses τοὺς ἀλλοτρίους for * outsiders,” as against legitimate children. P Giss I. 6γ15 (ii/a.p.) τὸ yap ἀλλ[ότ]ριον ἐποίησα Ev[. . . seems to imply ‘‘I did what was foreign to me,” but the lost context may change this entirely. 6. 995 (ii/iii Αἰγυπτίων ἀλλότρια ταῦτα ἣν], ἐδρᾶτο δὲ ὅμως.

The definite article — the commonest word in the Greek New Testament at 19,867 occurrences. Greek uses it more freely than English does and can drop it deliberately, so its presence and its absence both carry weight for a translator; but no single occurrence carries a message of its own. Here it simply gathers “the things” into one definite bundle.

φωνή is a feminine noun meaning 'voice' or 'sound,' primarily associated with articulate sounds made by humans and animals. It can also refer to sounds from inanimate objects and encompasses speech, language, and tones. The New Testament uses it in various contexts, such as in Matthew 2:18 and John 3:8. Notably, the lexicons differ on whether it can apply to inanimate sounds, with some sources emphasizing its primary association with living beings.
On these words, and on their relation to one another, very much has been written by the Greek grammarians and natural philosophers (see Lersch, Sprachphilosophie der Alten, vol. iii. pp. 85, 45, and passim). Φωνή, from φάω, ds φωτίζουσα τὸ νοούμενον (Plutarch, De Plac. Phil. 19), rendered in our Version ‘ voice’ (Matt. ii. 18), ‘sound’ (John iii. 8), ‘noise’ (Rev. vi. 1), is distinguished from ψόφος, in that it is the cry of a living creature (ἡ δὲ φωνὴ ψόφος τίς ἐστιν ἐμψύχου, Aristotle, De Anima, 2. 8. 14), being sometimes ascribed to God (Matt. ui. 17), to men (Matt. iii. 3), to animals (Rev. ix. 9), and, though improperly, to inanimate objects as well (1 Cor. xiv. 7), as to the trumpet (Matt. xxiv. 31), to the wind (John iii. 8), to the thunder (Rev. vi. 1; οἵ. Ps. lxxvi. 19). But λόγος, a word, saying, or rational utterance of the νοῦς, whether spoken (προφορικός, and thus φωνὴ τῶν…
