This hymn written by Martin Luther was mostly about how God has sent His Son to come and save us from our sins. The hymn uses description in the phrase "Brightly doth Thy manger shine,
Glorious is its light divine." This phrase is describing how beautiful Jesus manger truly was and how it was glowing from Jesus glory. When Martin says this it helps us better understand how radiant Jesus is and how glorious He truly is. It helps us see how even though Jesus was born in a manger He still made it beautiful. This passage helps us comprehend that Jesus can take even the smallest and ugliest things and make them stand out. The theme of this story is about how much God loves us that He sent His one and only Son to come and save us. It shows how much Jesus loves us that he was willing to be born in a manger. Martin Luther was trying to get across how much God loves us and how much Jesus loves us. It shows that we should praise God for all that He has done for us. We should also praise Jesus for coming to human flesh to come and save us in our sinfulness.
