They wouldn't have been that cruel to Mary, would they, to put her in a feed trough to give birth? After so many generations away from living on a farm, the new Christmas songs are starting to get really messed up.I was reading the 'inn' may have been a mistranslation. England in the 16th century and before had inns to stay in, not up to Motel 6 standards, but inns of a sort. But the passage may be referring to a guestroom rather than an inn. Joseph's relatives may have promised the guestroom to many other relative and hospitality customs would keep them from retracting the offer. I've also heard that they may have put them in the living room or a room they used to store grain and other food. But, be that as it may, there is no reason to think Mary got in the feed trough to give birth. Would any of you woman have done that

There is a Christmas song I've heard a few times over the past few years, one that sounded like it was written to be sung with a bit of 'soul', not an old one, that says 'born in a manger.' I tried to look it up, and apparently there are other songs that say Jesus was 'born in a manger.'Quora had a question about Jesus being born in a manger, and one of the responses said it was a common saying that Jesus was 'born in a manger.' I hadn't heard that other than in the songs, though. I grew up in church and heard the Luke passage about Jesus being wrapped in swaddling clothes and laid in a manger

How would this be different than other baby if it was a common practice? Maybe the combination of the swaddling clothes and lying in a manger was the sign to them. The way indoor mangers are described though, you'd think some mother might have already used one as a cradle. But maybe they set something up away from the animal feed in situations that were less crowded

The malon (מָלֹון), or kahn, typically was square in shape with casement walls, or chambers designed for quartering and protection. The compartments opened into a courtyard that served as lodging for donkeys or camels. There were no furnishings, no food, no utensils – just a place to bed down for man or beast.one possibilit God-HonoringChrist-CenteredBible-BasedSpirit-Led

The focus on being wrapped in swaddling cloths might be something we are intended to connect to the linen cloths later on in Luke (and Mark).
