Why did Yahshua fold the linen burial cloth after His resurrection?

The Gospel of John (20:7) tells us that the napkin, which was placed over
the face of Yahshua, was not just thrown aside like the grave clothes. The
Bible takes an entire verse to tell us that the napkin was neatly folded,
and was placed at the head of that stony coffin.

1) Early Sunday morning, while it was still dark, Mary Magdalene came to
the tomb and found that the stone had been rolled away from the entrance.
2) She ran and found Simon Peter and the other disciple, the one whom
Yahshua loved. She said, "They have taken the Master's body out of the tomb,
and I don't know where they have put him!" 3) Peter and the other disciple
ran to the tomb to see. 4) The other disciple outran Peter and got there first.
5) He stooped and looked in and saw the linen cloth lying there, but he didn't
go in. 6) Then Simon Peter arrived and went inside. He also noticed the
linen wrappings lying there, 7) while the cloth that had covered Yahshua' head
was folded up and lying to the side.

Is that important? Absolutely! Is it really significant? Yes!
In order to understand the significance of the folded napkin, you have to
understand a little bit about Hebrew tradition of that day. The folded
napkin had to do with the Master and Servant, and every Jewish boy knew
this tradition. When the servant set the dinner table for the master, he
made sure that it was exactly the way the master wanted it. The table was
furnished perfectly, and then the servant would wait, just out of sight,
until the master had finished eating, and the servant would not dare touch
that table, until the master was finished.

Now if the master was done eating, he would rise from the table, wipe his
fingers, his mouth, and clean his beard, and would wad up that napkin and
toss it onto the table. The servant would then know to clear the table.
For in those days, the wadded napkin meant, "I'm done". But if the master
got up from the table, and folded his napkin, and laid it beside his plate,
the servant would not dare touch the table, because the servant knew that
the folded napkin meant, "I'm not finished yet." The folded napkin meant,
"I'm coming back!"

He is Coming Back!!
