Kata Yesus pula kepadanya untuk kedua kalinya: "Simon, anak Yohanes, apakah engkau mengasihi Aku?" Jawab Petrus kepada-Nya: "Benar Tuhan, Engkau tahu, bahwa aku mengasihi Engkau." Kata Yesus kepadanya: "Gembalakanlah domba-domba-Ku."
Maka bertanyalah Ia lagi kepadanya pada kali yang kedua, "Hai Simon, anak Yahya, adakah engkau mengasihi Aku?" Maka sembah Petrus kepada-Nya, "Ya Tuhan, bahwa Tuhan juga sedia mengetahui yang hamba ini mengasihi Tuhan." Maka sabda Yesus kepadanya, "Gembalakanlah segala domba-Ku."

Gill's Notes on the Bible
He saith unto him again the second time,.... Willing to have the expressions of his love repeated and confirmed;
Simon, son of Jonas, lovest thou me? he leaves out the words, "more than these", though Nonnus expresses them; he saw Peter's heart, and observed the modesty of his answer, and would not urge him any more in that comparative way, only required a repetition of his sincere and hearty love to him:
he saith unto him, yea, Lord, thou knowest that I love thee; expressing himself in the same language as before; and it is, as if he should say, Lord, what can I say more? I can say no more than I have done, and by that I abide:
he saith unto him, feed my sheep; both the lost sheep of the house of Israel, and his other sheep among the Gentiles, whom the Father had given him, and he had paid a price for, and must be brought in; these being called, he would have fed with the word and ordinances, with the bread of life, and water of life, not lorded over, and fleeced, and much less worried and destroyed; every instance of care and love shown to these, he takes as a mark of affection and respect to himself.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
Feed my sheep - The word here rendered “feed,” as has been remarked, is different from the word in the previous verse. It has the sense of governing, caring for, guiding, protecting - the kind of faithful vigilance which a shepherd uses to guide his flock, and to make provision against their wants and dangers. It may be implied here that the care needed for the young in the church is to instruct them, and for those in advanced years both to instruct and govern them.
My sheep - This term commonly denotes the church in general, without respect to age, John 10:0.
