An Angel would not be out of the question, removing the Holy One to a different where/when from where He was miraculously placed and grew a body for nine months, then bringing Him back to our where/when and placed in Joseph's arms.

Daniel 5:5 In the same hour came forth fingers of a man's hand, and wrote opposite the lampstand upon the plaster of the wall of the king's palace: and the king saw the part of the hand that wrote.

The 'man' stood in a different where/when and reached forth into the where/when of Palace Party Central to write the judgment upon the wall. I point to this scene in Daniel because it is Biblical evidence that a different but very close other where/when exists. The first miracle in the Life of Jesus Christ is God placing the body of Him in Mary's womb.

When you consider that the Archangel will call from their graves all those who have believed and been born from above, at the event written of by Paul in 1 Thess 4:13-17, well ... the Bible tells us that GOD raised Jesus from the grave. It does not say He, Jesus, raised Himself from the grave. Jesus died. He died as a man, because you cannot kill God. Jesus even told us when God left the Spirit of Jesus the man.

During His life on this planet, Jesus was God intersecting our spacetime plane. He was also a man like as we are. When He died, He died like a man. GOD raised that Jesus from the grave and had exalted Him for the seal of God's salvation we receive when we believe.

In John 14, where Philip says 'if you will show us The Father, we will know you are Messaih', Jesus responded with a sort of physics lesson.

John 14:8 Philip said unto him, Lord, show us the Father, and it will satisfy us.

9 Jesus said unto him, Have I been so long a time with you, and yet have you not known me, Philip? he that has seen me has seen the Father; and how say you then, Show us the Father?

10 Believe you not that I am in the Father, and the Father in me? the words that I speak unto you I speak not of myself: but the Father that dwells in me, he does the works.

11 Believe me that I am in the Father, and the Father in me: or else believe me for the very works' sake.

Jesus was telling Philip --and us-- that all Philip could see of The Father was where The Father intersected the spacetime reality of Philip, in the person of Jesus.

While it is true that the first miracle recorded for us of Jesus was the marriage feast at Canna, from the placing of Him in Mary's womb, the miraculous entered our spacetime.

I like the ISV version of that Daniel 5 scene:

5 At that moment, humanlike fingers of a hand appeared near the lamp stand of the royal palace and wrote on the plaster of the wall. 6 While the king watched the back of the hand as it was writing, his facial expression changed. Utterly frightened, he lost control of his own bowels and his knees knocked together.
