"Lo, children are an heritage of theLord: and the fruit of the womb is his reward."
The Spirit is not speaking of children in the sense they are flesh and blood but of the heritage of the Lord where faith is the DNA so Jesus would phrase accordingly. "Verily I say unto you, Whosoever shall not receive the kingdom of God as a little child, he shall not enter therein."( Mark 10:15). He blessed them when they were brought to him,"But Jesus said, Suffer little children, and forbid them not, to come unto me: for of such is the kingdom of heaven."(Matt.19:15) Jesus knew what was written of him in the word. As man-child He represented the man part in it. . Isaiah refers to it. "for as soon as Zion travailed, she brought forth her children.(Is.66:8)" In the preceding verse Isaiah designates them "Before she travailed, she brought forth; before her pain came, she was delivered of a man child."(Is.66:7)
Zion as a dwelling place is 'the rod of thine inheritance'. "Remember thy congregation,whichthou hast purchased of old; the rod of thine inheritance,whichthou hast redeemed; this mount Zion, wherein thou hast dwelt."(74:2). The Father promised the Son consequently a congregation and it is to which the quote from Matthew leads us. Before we come to it here is a verse, "All those the Father gives me will come to me, and whoever comes to me I will never drive away." So the casual incident where the disciples rebuking those who brought children before Jesus has an important lesson for us. The Bible as a document is organized by the Holy Spirit for our instruction in righteousness. Thus Synoptic gospels are not simply four gospels but the command number four has its own significance. Besides through each four gospel the Holy Spirit is giving solid meat for our perfection. Gospels of Thomas and Philip may have their uses but the Holy Spirit has not found them fit with His purpose.

Thus man child is a composite term.
