    Unlike most victorious kings, who typically only allowed people of their own ethnicity to rule while enslaving all subjugated peoples, King Nebuchadnezzar determined to train for governmental service those with the best minds among the people within his kingdom, regardless of their race. On this basis, Daniel and his three friends were selected by ...

    One of the first things that happened to these four young men was the changing of their names (verse 7). As Matthew Henry notes in his commentary, “Their Hebrew names, which they received at their circumcision, had something of God, or Jah, in them: Daniel—God is my Judge; Hananiah—The grace of the Lord; Mishael—He that is the strong God; Azariah—T...

    In the third chapter of Daniel we find a third great test for Shadrach, Meshach and Abed-Nego. While the two previous incidents included their friend Daniel, he is not included here.

    While the men who threw Shadrach, Meshach and Abed-Nego into the furnace were killed by the heat, the fire only consumed the bindings of Shadrach, Meshach and Abed-Nego.
