Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego in the furnace

Refusing to worship Nebuchadnezzar's golden image, the three were cast bound into the burning fiery furnace, and a fourth figure walked with them unharmed (Daniel 3:24-25). Scripture gives no year within Nebuchadnezzar's reign.

๐Ÿ“– Daniel 3:1โ€“3

1King Nebuchadnezzar made a golden statue sixty cubits high and six cubits wide, and he set it up on the plain of Dura in the province of Babylon. 2Then King Nebuchadnezzar sent word to assemble the satraps, prefects, governors, advisers, treasurers, judges, magistrates, and all the other officials of the provinces to attend the dedication of the statue he had set up. 3So the satraps, prefects, governors, advisers, treasurers, judges, magistrates, and all the rulers of the provinces assembled for the dedication of the statue that King Nebuchadnezzar had set up, and they stood before it.
