Daniele 3:13 Meaning and Commentary

Daniel 3:13

Then Nebuchadnezzar, in his rage and fury
Which did not became him as a man, much less as a king, and still less as engaged in devotion and religion; commanded to bring Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego;
that is, immediately before him; who very probably were not afar off: he did not order them in his wrath and fury to be slain directly, as he did the wise men and soothsayers in another case; but to be brought before him, and examined first, that he might know the truth of these allegations against them; which shows, amidst all his rage, he retained still some respect for them, and esteem of them: then they brought these men before the king;
which they had not much trouble to do, being very ready to come and answer for themselves, and give an account of their conduct, and their reason for it.

Daniele 3:13 In-Context

11 e chiunque non si prostra e non adora, dev’esser gettato in mezzo a una fornace di fuoco ardente.
12 Or vi sono degli uomini giudei, che tu hai preposti agli affari della provincia di Babilonia: Shadrac, Meshac, e Abed-nego; codesti uomini, o re, non ti tengono in alcun conto; non servono i tuoi dèi, e non adorano la statua d’oro che tu hai eretta".
13 Allora Nebucadnetsar, irritato e furioso, ordinò che gli fossero menati Shadrac, Meshac e Abed-nego; e quegli uomini furon menati in presenza del re.
14 Nebucadnetsar, rivolgendosi a loro, disse: "Shadrac, Meshac, Abed-nego, lo fate deliberatamente di non servire i miei dèi e di non adorare la statua d’oro che io ho eretto?
15 Ora, se non appena udrete il suono del corno, del flauto, della cetra, della lira, del saltèro, della zampogna e d’ogni sorta di strumenti, siete pronti a prostrarvi per adorare la statua che io ho fatto, bene; ma se non l’adorate, sarete immantinente gettati in mezzo a una fornace di fuoco ardente; e qual è quel dio che vi libererà dalle mie mani?"
