I agree with your last sentence. It´s one of the things that I quickly tired of and caused me to stop reading the hwfmr.

In Hebrews 5:8 we see that, Even though Jesus was God's Son, he learned obedience from the things he suffered.

In some sense, perhaps not the strictest one, but in some way Jesus as a man, as the Lamb of God needed to learn something. I don´t think it´s too far of a stretch to see in this a kind of shepherding. How is it that He learned if not by some kind of shepherding?
