The same way Yeshua could forgive sin even though the Rabbis said only God could forgive sin. Yeshua is entrapping them in their own attempted trap.

Jesus affirms himself as God in John 10:14 I am the Good Shepherd. Psalms 23 and Ezekiel 24, God himself is the Shepherd, thus Jesus takes upon himself another title of God. One thing interesting about this verse is the fact that the rich ruler calls Jesus "Good teacher, " I don 't think this is one of God 's titles. One also has to understand that a rabbi at the time often ask questions to see if a follower was qualified to be a disciple. The rabbi would determine the followers knowledge by his answer.

Trinitarian Alert By his own admission, this clealy shows that Jesus is not God. There is One who is good, not two, or for that matter three. Notice there is no King James web explanation on this verse like all the others versus. I wonder why?
