Welcome to part two of Dr. Lilly Anderson, the book of Daniel.

They were doing the right thing and boy it was kind of a come what may.

They were going to do the right thing. In verse 20 they bound them through them in.

After heating it up to seven times it's normal.

And I don't know what kind of thermometers they had back then.

Or if seven just means complete like it sometimes does.

But it's high enough that the guards that throw them in perish from the heat which must not have been the normal occurrence.

Yeah. And then let's finish this amazing experience like in verse 25.

I see four men loose walking in the midst of the fire.

Didn't we just throw in three? Yeah. They have no hurt.

This intrigues me. I can't wait to ask both of you because we don't see the phrase son of God.

Very often in the Old Testament the form of the fourth is like the son of God.

I was expecting to see a footnote on that or something.

But how often do we see that in the Old Testament?

Good point. And it's interesting that it's coming from a pagan.

Yeah. That's right. It's never can us are said that.

Yeah. So he's like who is that in there? And he looks like the son of God.

I mean, now he believes in lots of different gods. He does know about the God of Daniel and Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego.

He has been acquainted with him through their testimonies and their witnesses.

But so that it seems to be that's coming from there, but you're right. That's an unusual phrase.

And especially coming from a Gentile in the Old Testament.

And then of course they call them out and these three men come out unscathed.
