“And when he hath found it, he layeth it on his shoulders, rejoicing.”
And when he finds it, he joyfully puts it on his shoulders and goes home — the joyful carrying: the shepherd doesn't drive the found sheep home but carries it — the personal, physical act of restoration. Puts it on his shoulders: the posture of the shepherd communicates the intimacy of the recovery.
