It is anthropomorphic interpretation of the Divine or the source from which all emerge.

Power of the Story is kick-ass.

If there is FACT, it is that Jesus was one of a family of seven whose father and likely siblings all served as laborers, carepenters or stone masons in the construction trades before he was drawn to become a teacher/rabbi/insurrectionist in the style of the Baptist for whom some scholars postulate he served as an apprentice prior to launching his own ministry. Not a better tale in all of creation. I love it. But the manger stuff is fanciful.
