THREAD: Daniel 3’s Lists (for @ctyerkes).

SUB-TITLE: God is in the details—a phrase which has recently been corrupted (by a reference to the devil), but badly needs to be reclaimed.

#BibleStudy #BookOfDaniel
One of the most conspicuous features of Daniel 3’s construction is its preoccupation with lists.
🔹 Personnel are listed (vv. 2, 3, 27), viz., ‘satraps, prefects, governors, counselors, treasurers, justices, magistrates’, and a catch-all category (‘every other ruler in the province’).

🔹 People-groups are listed (vv. 4, 7, 29), viz., ‘tribes, nations, and tongues’.
