(guest).
Chaldean
name
of
Mishael
,
Daniel
’s companion ({vi 21744-21745;121809}Dan. 1:6-7; 3).
Concise Bible Dictionary
:
Name
given by
the
prince
of the eunuchs to
Mishael
, one of
Daniel
’s companions at
Babylon
: he was one of the
three
noble men who,
faithful
to
God
in refusing to
worship
the
image
set
up by the king, were
cast
into the
fiery
furnace
; but were miraculously preserved by God,
there
being not
even
the smell
of
fire
on their
garments
.
Nebuchadnezzar
blessed their God, who had thus
delivered
them, and
they
were promoted in the province of Babylon (Dan. 1:7; Dan. 2:49; {vi 21820-21838}Dan. 3:12-30). Nebuchadnezzar,
head
of the Gentile
power
, having been brought into a prominent position by God is compelled to own the God of
this
captive
but faithful
remnant
, who had shown His power in protecting those who were faithful to
Him
.
