QUOTATION: Jesus' Poverty
When He came into this world, he was born in a stable, and died on a
cross. Truly, no one, when born, could have found a more lowly place;
nor, dying, a more disgraceful one. And whilst He lived, He was poorer,
not only than men, but even than the beasts of the field: for the foxes
had holes, and the birds of the air their nests, “but the Son of man had nowhere to lay His head."
