- The source describes a 'shepherd class' in ancient Egypt, characterized by an occupation considered an abomination by native Egyptians, creating a social barrier with the 'descendants of Jacob'. The Israelites are the descendants of Jacob, and historical context (supported by Candidate 1's text) indicates they were shepherds and were despised by Egyptians for this, thus constituting this 'shepherd class' in the given context.
