Bible Question:
Daniel 3:25 He said, "Look! I see four men loosed and walking about in the midst of the fire without harm, and the appearance of the fourth is like a son of the gods!" (NAS) ..................... Yes, Nebuchadnezzar did say that the forth person looked like the "son of the gods", but does the refferance of "gods" mean "God"? |
Bible Answer: Bear in mind that in this verse Nebuchadnezzar is the one speaking. "Nebuchadnezzar was speaking as a pagan polytheist and was content to conceive of the fourth figure as a lesser heavenly being (v.28) sent by the all-powerful God of the Israelites." (Zondervan NASB Study Bible, p. 1232) "The king seemed only to have known that the fourth person was a heavenly being. He called him a son of the gods (a pagan reference to one who appeared supernatural) and an 'Angel' (v. 28)..." (MacArthur Study Bible, p. 1232) |
