29 "Therefore I make a decree that any people , nation or tongue that speaks anything offensive against the God of Shadrach , Meshach and Abed-nego shall be torn limb from limb and their houses reduced to a rubbish heap , inasmuch e e as there is no other god who is able to deliver in this way."
Matthew Henry's Commentary on Daniel 3:29
Commentary on Daniel 3:28-30
(Read Daniel 3:28-30)
What God did for these his servants, would help to keep the Jews to their religion while in captivity, and to cure them of idolatry. The miracle brought deep convictions on Nebuchadnezzar. But no abiding change then took place in his conduct. He who preserved these pious Jews in the fiery furnace, is able to uphold us in the hour of temptation, and to keep us from falling into sin.
