# wrapped him in long strips of cloth
# while they were there
In some cultures mothers comfort their babies by wrapping them tightly in cloth or a blanket. Alternate translation: "wrapped cloths firmly around him" or "wrapped him tightly in a blanket" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-explicit]])
"while Mary and Joseph were in Bethlehem"
# laid him in a manger
This was some kind of box or frame that people put hay or other food in for animals to eat. It was most likely clean and may have had something soft and dry like hay in it as a cushion for the baby. Animals were often kept near the home to keep them secure and to feed them easily. Mary and Joseph stayed in a room that was used for animals.
# there was no room for them in the inn
"there was no space for them to stay in the guest room." This was probably because so many people went to Bethlehem to register. Luke adds this as background information. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/writing-background]])
# the time came for her to deliver her baby
"it was time for her to give birth to her baby"
