In Daniel 2:12, the king's furious command to destroy all wise men parallels the furnace decree — both show Nebuchadnezzar's arbitrary deadly power.

Daniel 5:19 portrays Nebuchadnezzar's absolute power over life and death, which underlies his decree to throw dissenters into the fiery furnace.

Daniel 6:7 parallels this: a royal decree forbidding prayer to anyone but the king, with death by lions — another test of religious allegiance.

Exodus 20:5 forbids bowing to idols—directly opposing this command to worship the statue.

Matthew 4:9 has Satan demand worship in exchange for power—a parallel temptation to idolatry.

In Matthew 13:42, Jesus uses 'fiery furnace' for final judgment — directly echoing the furnace of punishment here as an image of divine wrath.

In Matthew 13:50, the same 'fiery furnace' imagery from the parable of the net reinforces the link between earthly punishment and final judgment.

Revelation 13:15-16 describes a beast forcing worship of its image on pain of death—a clear typology of this decree.

Isaiah 44:17 mocks worshiping a man-made idol—parallel to the king's demand to bow to a golden image.

Revelation 14:11 depicts eternal torment for worshiping the beast's image — the opposite outcome of Daniel 3:6's threat for refusing to worship.
