Canticles of Daniel. The Three Youths in the Fiery Furnace (Դանիէլի Մարգարէի Օրհներգութիւնները)
Not even the flames of hell can overcome the one who is devoted to Jesus Christ the Savior.
It is one of the most poignant scenes in the Armenian Church. By candlelight on the evening of January 5, before the Divine Liturgy of Armenian Christmas Eve (Jrakalooyts), three young boys and a deacon alternately chant the biblical story of the Three Youths in the Fiery Furnace from the Book of Daniel.
Three Youths : Setrak, Misak, Abed-Nago
Since the earliest years of Christendom, Armenians have chanted this Old Testament story on the eve of Christmas and Easter.
DANIEL 3
