This role was crucial in ancient agrarian societies, where livestock was a primary source of wealth and sustenance.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Israel, shepherding was a common occupation, often associated with pastoral nomadism. Shepherds were responsible for leading their flocks to pasture, protecting them from predators, and ensuring their overall well-being. The role of a shepherd was not only practical but also held symbolic significance in the Bible, often used metaphorically to describe leadership and care, as seen in the imagery of God as the Shepherd of Israel.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>from an unused word<br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>sheep raiser, sheep dealer, sheep tender<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>sheep breeder (1), sheepherders (1).<p><div align="center"><span class="smalltext"><iframe width="100%" height="85" scrolling=no src="/nasec.htm" frameborder=0 cellpadding=0></iframe></span></div><div class="vheading2">Brown-Driver-Briggs</div> <font class="hebrew2">נֹקֵד</font> <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>noun masculine</b></font> <font size="+1"><b>sheep-raiser, -dealer, or -tender</b></font> (Lag<sup>NB108</sup>);
