Ezekiel 37:24 *And my servant David shall be king over them, and they shall have one shepherd; they shall walk in my judgments, and shall keep my commandments, and shall do them.

Isaias 40:11.; Jeremias 23:5.; Ezechiel 34:23.; Daniel 9:24.; John 1:45.
David; Christ, the one shepherd, (John x.) over all nations. (Worthington) --- This cannot refer to Zorobabel, who was never king, nor perhaps even governor; as Sasabasar, who seems to have been a Persian, was appointed by Cyrus, 1 Esdras 1:8. --- Shepherd. David have been one. (Calmet) --- This title is more modest than that of king. (St. Jerome)
