I am the door of the sheep

"I am the way the sheep enter into the sheepfold" Jesus is saying he is the one who allows entry. The word "sheep" is used to refer to God's people.(See: rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metaphor)

All who came before me are thieves and robbers

The phrase "All who came before me" refers to the other teachers who had taught before Jesus.
