Peter continues quoting from Isaiah 53, this time the part on us being like sheep going astray. This is further confirmation that it is healing from sin, not physical healing that is at the forefront of his thoughts. The primary change that takes place when we get saved is a change in direction in our lives. Once we were going astray, heading in the wrong direction, running away from God. Now we have returned to the shepherd of our souls, to the one who truly looks after us. We should dwell on this phrase, “shepherd and overseer of our souls”, God looks after who we really are, He looks after our inmost being, He takes care of our lives.
