Daniel 3:29 "Therefore I make a
decree, That every people, nation, and language, which speak anything amiss
against the God of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego, shall be cut in pieces,
and their houses shall be made a dunghill: because there is no other God that can deliver after this sort."
Nebuchadnezzar’s recognition of the
God of the three men does not mean that he converted to their religion. It was
simply an acknowledgment of their God’s power.
The sad thing in
all of this is the fact that Nebuchadnezzar does not say this is the Only God.
He does say, no other has the power of God. He does recognize Him as the most
powerful God. He, also, allows the worship of God by anyone who desires,
without persecution for that worship. The punishment will be great for those
who speak against God.
