While it could simply have been an angel, Nebuchadnezzar’s comment that the fourth "is like a son of God" opens that possibility that it could be Christ.
Ingawa kuna uwezekano kuwa alikuwa malaika, maelezo ya Nebukadneza kuwa mtu huyu "ni mfano wa wana wa miungu" yanatoa uwezekano kuwa alikuwa Kristo.
