And there was no day like that before it or after it, that the LORD hearkened unto the voice of a man: Then Daniel blessed the God of Heaven. He removeth kings, and setteth up kings: He giveth Wisdom unto the wise, and Knowledge to them that know Understanding: He knoweth what is in the darkness, and the Light dwelleth with Him. This great image, whose brightness was excellent, stood before thee; and the form thereof was terrible. He raises us from the degradation of sin to the dignity of perfection. So that, in a two-fold sense, the Head and members are of one nature, and not like that monstrous image which Nebuchadnezzar saw in his dream.
The head was of fine gold, but the belly and the thighs were of brass, the legs of iron, and the feet, part of iron and part of clay.
Christ's mystical body is no absurd combination of opposites; the Head is immortal, and the body is immortal, too, for thus the record stands, 'Because I live, ye shall live also.

Thou art this head of gold. In the vanity of his boastful heart, Nebuchadnezzar wouldn't admit that he was, in effect, God's slave and servant, to do with however God chose.
After all, God did reveal the secret of the dream, which none of the "gods" of his sorcerers could do. But his rebellion was still evident in that, he "worshipped Daniel, and commanded that they should offer an oblation and sweet odours unto him" , thus giving Daniel the treatment meant only for God, for only gods are worshipped.
And there was no day like that before it or after it, that the LORD hearkened unto the voice of a man: Therefore because the king's commandment was urgent, and the furnace exceeding hot, the flame of the fire slew those men that took up Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego. In this our day, many of God's servants, though innocent of wrongdoing, will be given over to suffer humiliation and abuse at the hands of those who, inspired by Satan, are filled with envy and religious bigotry.
