Chapter 1
Daniel and friends, Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah, are captured and taken to Babylon. They remain distinct from the culture, in body, mind and heart. This pleases the king.
Chapter 2
Nebuchadnezzar dreams of his kingdom's demise, and of coming kingdoms. God gives Daniel the interpretation; he glorifies God before the king for giving it to him, and is rewarded for it.
Chapter 3
Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah are tested, refusing to submit to idolatry in the face of a fiery death, thus further glorifying God before the king.
