Preparation for Man
Hebrews 2:7
You made him a little lower than the angels; you crowned him with glory and honor, and did set him over the works of your hands:


How in the household are garments quilted and wrought, and curiously embroidered, and the softest things laid aside, and the cradle prepared to greet the little pilgrim of love when it comes from distant regions we know not whence! Now, no cradle for an emperor's child was ever prepared with such magnificence as this world has been for man. It is God's cradle for the race, curiously carved and decorated, flower-strewn and star-curtained.

(H. W. Beecher.)
