DAN 3:19 (exposition): The explicit sevenfold detail in note25's19-25 range is used as part of the bodily-preservation argument. DAN 3:24 (exposition): Exact distinctive question of Nebuchadnezzar within the printed19-25 range, central to the fourth-person explanation. DAN 3:25 (exposition): Explicitly identifies the protecting presence as Son of God, while WEB uses a son of the gods and WEBSTER preserves the source's wording. DAN 3:27 (exposition): Unambiguous verse27 detail outside the printed19-25 range; interprets absence of bodily damage/smell as divine preservation. LUK 18:27 (exposition): Correct note26 from xviii.37 to xviii.27; applies this saying to the bodily miracles and future resurrection. Daniel3:20-23 are present in the editor's range but their distinct details are not separately quoted/analyzed; no blanket range expansion. Ananias/Azarias/Misael are the same narrative's alternative names; preserve them. Jonah2:11 is a versification difference in DRA/BRENTON, not an invalid reference in every Bible. Daniel3:25 Son of God is the historic quotation and author's reading; do not rewrite it to WEB's a son of the gods. {\"note_id\": \"cite_note-24\", \"transcribed source\": \"Jonah ii. 11.\", \"canonical\": \"JON2:10\", \"reason\": \"BRENTON/DRA2:11 and WEB/WEBSTER/ASV2:10 describe the commanded fish releasing Jonah onto dry land.\"} {\"note_id\": \"cite_note-26\", \"transcribed source\": \"Luke xviii. 37.\", \"canonical\": \"LUK18:27\", \"reason\": \"Verse37 says Jesus of Nazareth is passing by; verse27 has the quoted impossible/possible saying.\"}","reviewed_on":"2026-10-10","source_sha256":"e1a9088145cfef289c81562b04dc8be4133db207ebb84dcaca9c06cb8e737d80","text_sha256":"12eff1d063aeda1b833f3ba277fa4584309efe4ccec2dba525e558d0c956b197"},"verified":true,"work":"Against Heresies","work_id":"irenaeus-against-heresies-book5"}
