==Teachings==
* Six miracles occurred on the day Chananya, Mishoel and Azarya were saved from the furnace of Nebuchadnezzar; 1) The furnace that was sunken in the ground rose up, for all to see. 2) As the furnace rose cracks created openings in its sealed walls to make the miracle more viewable. 3) All the soldiers from the 4 Kingdoms that partook in the attempted execution were consumed by fire. 4) Nebuchadnezzar himself became half burnt. 5) The large unmovable idol collapsed on its face. 6) Yechezkel brought the dry bones back to life in the Valley of Dura.
* Before a person eats and drinks he has two hearts. After a person eats and drinks he only has one heart.
* In the future Hashem will create 310 worlds for each and every Tzadik.
* From the day the Bais Hamikdash was destroyed, prophecy was taken from the prophets and given to the wise. Meaning, even though prophesy was taken from the prophets it was not taken from the wise.
* When a Chacham passes in front of a person he must stand from when he enters his four cubits until he leaves his four cubits. When the Av Beis Din passes by a person must stand as soon as he enters his sight but can sit once he has left his four cubits. When a Nasi passes, a person must rise as soon as he enters his sight and must remain standing until the Nasi sits down in his place.
