In Daniel 6:16, Daniel is thrown into the lions' den — a clear parallel: faithful servants cast into deadly peril by royal decree.

In Psalm 34:19, the righteous have many afflictions but God delivers them — a direct thematic summary of the three men’s experience here.

1 Peter 4:12 calls believers not to be surprised at a 'fiery ordeal' — a direct parallel to the literal furnace, applying the lesson to persecution.

Jeremiah 38:6 also involves a prophet being cast into a pit by enemies — a parallel ordeal of faithful servants thrown into deadly situations.

2 Corinthians 1:8-10 describes despair of life and God's deliverance — a parallel pattern of overwhelming trial followed by divine rescue.

Psalm 66:12 uses the same 'fire and water' trial imagery, affirming that God brings His people through danger to abundance.
