However, the Greek Septuagint uses the transliteration Μισάχ (Misach) in the Book of Daniel.<p><span class="tophdg">Usage: </span>Meshak is one of the three Hebrew men, along with Shadrach and Abednego, who were taken into Babylonian captivity and served in the court of King Nebuchadnezzar. The name Meshak is a Babylonian name given to Mishael, one of Daniel's companions. The name is used to signify his identity in the Babylonian context, reflecting the cultural assimilation attempts by the Babylonians.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>During the Babylonian exile, Jewish captives were often given Babylonian names as a way to integrate them into Babylonian society and culture. Meshak, along with Shadrach and Abednego, is best known for his unwavering faith in God, which led to his miraculous deliverance from the fiery furnace. This event is a testament to God's power and faithfulness to those who remain steadfast in their devotion to Him, even in the face of persecution.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>of foreign origin<br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>a Bab. name given to Mishael<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>Meshach (1).<p><div align="center"><span class="smalltext"><iframe width="100%" height="85" scrolling=no src="/nasec.htm" frameborder=0 cellpadding=0></iframe></span></div><div class="vheading2">Brown-Driver-Briggs</div> <font class="hebrew2">מֵישַׁךְ</font> <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>proper name, masculine</b></font> (according to Dl<sup>Baer, Dan.
