A borrowed Manger At His Birth...A borrowed Tomb 3 days before He Resurrected


A Borrowed Manager at His Birth...A borrowed Tomb 3 Days before His Resurrection!
Luke 2:7
7 And she gave birth to her firstborn son and wrapped him in swaddling cloths and laid him in a manger, because there was no place for them in the inn.

Jesus came into this dark unwelcoming world, not to set up permenant residence in the place where He was born. Indeed, for the Place where Mary laid Him after she gave birth to Him, was in a Manger, where animals and sheep eat in the trough and lap up water with their tongues to drink, in troughs in a Manger. For there was no room in the Inn, and the Manger was borrowed for Jesus, after being born and wrapped in swaddling cloths and laid in that place--Jesus was not going to take up permenancy in that dark, cold unwelcoming place for an infant being born, nor in the dark unwelcoming world where there was no room for Him, for He came in an unwelcoming place not to take residence, a place where the Son of God and His presence was rejected, But He violently invaded this cold dark world, only to take, quicken and make our dead, cold unwelcoming heart alive by the Holy Spirit to take permenant residence in us; unto God the Father Eternally Welcoming us in His Kingdom, as He Transfers us from this dark, cold, unwelcoming world and brings us into the Joy of His welcoming presence of the Kingdom of His Son whom He Loves!
For He was passing through the borrowed Manger at His Birth, for His infant Body was full of Eternal Life at His Birth, for He was passing through that place of the Manger only to travel the way of the Via Della Rosa, the way of Suffering at the cross, for the infant Body of His was at full maturity and perfect obedience to be broken at the Cross to give the Bread of His Righteousness, the Bread of Eternal life, That filled His infant Body at Birth.

And at His Death, Jesus had no need to procure a Tomb for His Body!

The only unoccupied Tomb from all the greats gone by, is Jesus' borrowed tomb, for it was borrowed by Joseph of Armethia, for after Jesus breathed His last dieing Breath after His battle cry of Victory, " It is Finished"  they took Jesus down from the cross and wrapped Him in grave cloths and laid Him in the Tomb. Jesus did not need to take ownership of a permenant Tomb, in a purchase, for His Body was not going to take up permanent residence in that Tomb, for the Tomb was going to be empty on the Third day of His Resurrection, never to Die ever again! He was passing through the borrowed tomb in His Resurrection!

Hence, my grave, coffin and Death will be emptied by The grave Robber, Even Jesus Christ, for Like a thief in the night He will steal my body out of the grave, indeed!

Matthew 27:57-61
57When it was evening, there came a rich man from Arimathea, named Joseph, who also was a disciple of Jesus. 58He went to Pilate and asked for the body of Jesus. Then Pilate ordered it to be given to him. 59And Joseph took the body and wrapped it in a clean linen shroud 60and laid it in his own new tomb, which he had cut in the rock. And he rolled a great stone to the entrance of the tomb and went away. 61Mary Magdalene and the other Mary were there, sitting opposite the tomb.
Isaiah 53:9
9His grave was assigned with wicked men, Yet He was with a rich man in His death,
