Word 'Manger
.Has 2 Meani ngsu
The Bible tells us • that
the, newly-born Christ-child .
was "wrapped in swaddling
clothes and laid in a 'man-
ger," a word derived from
the French "mangebir", or
frame. to hold animal feed,
It is interesting that the
other common English word
for a cattle-feeder, crib,
which is derived from the
German ,krippe, also means
a baby's bed. .
Even the French word .
creChe, which, is often used,.
to deScribe the nativity
scene displayed in churches,
homes, and other places at
Christmastime, has the
double meaning ,of "man-:
geoir" and a pubic shelter
for the care of . infants.

Key to T
The evidence that the
inurney of Mary and. Joseph
from • Nazareth to Bethle-
hem took place • in the' dry
season. • that is. before the
onset of winter. depends to
some extent on what. we
know about the climate of
Palestine .today, which.
scholars• believe, is not very
different from what it Was
dining the time of Jesus.
The annual mean tem-
perature • is ;a pleasant
enough 62,8 degrees Fah=
renheit. with a range from
a high of 112 degrees to a•
low .in winter of only 12
degrees..
While the lowland plains.
nearer the • Mediterranean
Sea. receive heavy rains'.
from NoyeMber to April,
winter in the hills can brine

ime of Holy Birth
• Nazareth, the city, of
' Jesus, was a town of some
note in. southern Gali1ee,
near the western 'edge , Of .
the fertile plain of Esdra-
elon.
This ..area provides more .
clues to the time of the
journey for scholars Who
look to the still fertile and
well-watered hills of Galilee
and into the less favored
hill country of Judea, where
the cultivation of grains,
olives and vines tended to
give way to the .grazing of
sheep, especially in the dry,
season. • . .
So it can also be assumed
that the holy journey was
during the dry season by
lookine to the Bible in
which. Saint Luke says
that in the same country
were 'shepherds looking,
over their Socks,
