Purpose of the book of daniel11/30/2023 This would seem to be supported by Daniel 3:23, which says that, after Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego were bound, they "fell into the blazing furnace" (which suggests a drop of some kind, as into a pit), and also by Daniel 3:22, which speaks of the flames of the fire (not just the heat from it) killing the men who threw Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego into the furnace (which, to me, would be indicative of an area (again, such as a pit) that was not completely enclosed, and that would have exposed them to the flames, rather than being a contained structure or device). However, from the narrative given, I have always conceived of it as an open pit deeper than the height of a man that was ignited by fuel being placed into it and lit, with additional fuel then thrown in to produce greater flame or heat. Army Daniel 3 does not contain a detailed description of the furnace itself. Tim Maas Retired Quality Assurance Specialist with the U.S.
