Толкование Книга пророка Даниила 3 глава 48 стих - Экзегет

GOD COMMANDS THE FIRE. SEVERIAN OF GABALA: God commands the fire to consume the Chaldeans, so they would not believe that the fire’s energy had been weakened by the miracle and deny its truth. For this reason those who were inside remained unhurt, while outside the fire attacked the Chaldeans, to firmly convince the onlookers that, in regard to the saints, the fire was not ignorant of its own nature but rather honored piety. Thus also the lions did with Daniel. SERMON ON THE THREE YOUNG MEN.
