Sha'drach. (royal, or the great scribe). The Hebrew, or rather Chaldee, name of Hananiah. The history of Shadrach, or Hananiah, as told in Daniel 1-3 is well known. After their deliverance from the furnace, we hear no more of Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego, except in Hebrews 11:33-34, but there are repeated allusions to them, in the later apocryphal books, and the martyrs of the Maccabaean period seem to have been much encouraged by their example.
