Nyodee, Daniel 3:23-25, speaks of this incident. Nebuchadnezzar certainly had no intimate knowledge of the True God, however, he might have been conversant with who this God of Israel was. He would not have known of the Son of God (Jesus), but probably referred to the fourth person in the fire as someone that was very near to or a messenger of God. As we see in verse 28, that he attributed the help given to the three God-fearing men, to an angel. He may also not know about angels, but purely a term used as a helper sent by God to His people.

Thank you for the opportunity to ask my question.

How did King Nebuchadnezar know the nature of the form of the son of God, having no knowledge of the true God?
