Daniel 3:21 Meaning and Commentary

Daniel 3:21

Then these men were bound in their coats
Their upper coats, cloaks, or mantles, as Aben Ezra and Jacchiades; though, according to the use of the word in the Arabic language, the "femoralia" ^F18 or breeches are meant: their hosen, and their hats, and their other garments:
their turbants on their heads, which were usually wore in those countries; and their stockings and shoes, and other under garments, as waistcoats and shirts; which through haste or negligence, or with design, were kept on them, to make their torment the greater; but were intended by the Lord to make the miracle the more conspicuous. According to Cocceius ^F19 and Bynaeus ^F20, the first of these words signifies the outward covering of the body, as cloaks; the second the covering of the feet, as socks, shoes, and sandals; and the third the covering of the head, as caps, turbants, helmets; the last the inner garments that were under the upper ones: and were cast into the midst of the burning fiery furnace;
in the manner and circumstances before related.

Daniel 3:21 In-Context

19 Entonces Nabucodonosor fue lleno de ira, y se demudó la figura de su rostro sobre Sadrac, Mesac, y Abed-nego; habló, y mandó que el horno se encendiese siete veces más de lo que cada vez solía.

20 Y mandó a hombres muy vigorosos que tenía en su ejército, que atasen a Sadrac, Mesac, y Abed-nego, para echarlos en el horno de fuego ardiendo.

21 Entonces estos varones fueron atados con sus mantos, y sus calzas, y sus turbantes, y sus vestidos, y fueron echados dentro del horno de fuego ardiendo.

22 Porque la palabra del rey daba prisa, y había procurado que se encendiese mucho, la llama del fuego mató a aquellos hombres que habían alzado a Sadrac, Mesac, y Abed-nego.

23 Y estos tres varones, Sadrac, Mesac, y Abed-nego, cayeron atados dentro del horno de fuego ardiendo.
