Once thought to be written by Martin Luther, "Away in the Manger" has become a worldwide holiday staple. But, according to the Bible, what is a manger?
Answer A feeding trough
A manger is a feeding trough for animals, a long wooden box they eat out of. The word comes from the Old French mangier (meaning "to eat"), from Latin mandere (meaning "to chew"). It reveals the humility of God who came to earth only to use a feeding trough as a crib.
