Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, three Jewish men in Babylon, faced religious persecution under King Nebuchadnezzar. They refused to worship the golden image that the king had set up, as their faith prohibited idolatry. Their defiance of the king’s decree was reported, and they were summoned before him. Despite the king’s threats of being thrown into a fiery furnace, they remained steadfast in their faith, declaring that their God was able to save them but that they would not bow to the image regardless of the outcome.
Enraged, Nebuchadnezzar ordered the furnace heated seven times hotter than usual and had them bound and thrown in. The flames were so intense that they killed the soldiers who cast them into the fire. However, God miraculously protected Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego. They were seen walking unbound in the furnace with a fourth figure who looked like “a son of the gods.” When they emerged, they were unharmed, and their faith caused Nebuchadnezzar to praise their God and decree protection for their religion.

Jesus sent the twelve disciples on a mission to preach, heal, and spread the message of the kingdom of God. He gave them authority over unclean spirits, to cast them out, and to heal diseases.

The disciples were told to avoid taking extra money, food, or clothing and to depend on the hospitality of those who welcomed them.
