It describes the order to erect a massive gold statue on the plain of Dura and the public dedication that introduces a forced worship decree. The narration emphasizes the punishment for refusal, threatening anyone who will not bow and worship with being cast into a blazing, fiery furnace.","077 The Fiery Furnace  \nDaniel 2:47-49 Daniel 3  \nEnglish Spiritual  \n077 The Fiery Furnace  \nEnglish  \n© 2020 Wycliffe Bible Translators, Inc.  \n[http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/](http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/)  \nYou are free to make commercial use of this work.

They erected the statue on a plain named Dura.  \nThen he ordered all the officials of the kingdom to come to the dedication of the statue.  \nDuring the dedication, a servant announced anew law: “Everyone must bow down and worship King Nebuchadnezzar’s statue when they hear music play.”  \n“Anyone who does not will be thrown into a blazing, fiery furnace.”","cbCaiaTY1dT6wSDz","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiaTY1dT6wSDz","pdf",2983045,3,1,29,"English","en",105,"# Background and Appointments\n## Nebuchadnezzar’s Dream Interpretation\n## Daniel’s Companions in Babylon\n# The Gold Statue and Dedication\n## The Statue on the Plain of Dura\n## The New Worship Law\n# The Threat of the Fiery Furnace","[{\"question\":\"What role did Daniel and his companions receive after Nebuchadnezzar’s dream?\",\"answer\":\"Nebuchadnezzar appointed Daniel chief over the advisers and wise men.
