Context: Daniel 3
19Then was Nebuchadnezzar full of fury, and the form of his visage was changed against Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego: therefore he spake, and commanded that they should heat the furnace one seven times more than it was wont to be heated.
20And he commanded the most mighty men that were in his army to bind Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, and to cast them into the burning fiery furnace.
21Then these men were bound in their coats, their hosen, and their hats, and their other garments, and were cast into the midst of the burning fiery furnace.

Commentary
Daniel chapter 3 is a powerful story of faith and courage in the face of overwhelming odds. It tells the story of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, three Jewish men who were thrown into a fiery furnace by King Nebuchadnezzar for refusing to bow down and worship a golden image. Despite the threat of death, the three men refused to bow down and instead chose to trust in God.
