Strong's Lexicon phatné: Manger, feeding trough Original Word: φάτνη Part of Speech: Noun, Feminine Transliteration: phatné Pronunciation: fat-nay' Phonetic Spelling: (fat'-nay) Definition: Manger, feeding trough Meaning: a manger, feeding-trough, stall. Word Origin: Derived from the Greek verb "πάσσω" (passō), meaning "to sprinkle" or "to strew." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The concept of a manger is not directly paralleled in Hebrew with a specific word, but similar ideas can be found in terms like "אבוס" (ebus), meaning "feeding trough" or "crib," as seen in passages like Proverbs 14:4. Usage: The term "phatné" refers to a manger or feeding trough, typically used for animals. In the New Testament, it is most famously associated with the nativity story, where it describes the place where the infant Jesus was laid after His birth. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Near Eastern and Greco-Roman cultures, a manger was a common fixture in stables or areas where animals were kept. It was a simple, often wooden or stone structure used to hold food for livestock. The use of a manger in the nativity account highlights the humble circumstances of Jesus' birth, emphasizing His identification with the lowly and His accessibility to all people, regardless of status.
