The chapters IX through to XII detail Abram destroying his father's idols and Abram being cast into a furnace (and surviving just like Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego).

Chapter XIV mentions why the ancient kings of Egypt are called Pharaoh.

The explanation is contained in verses 31-33.

 Chapter 

 Verse 

Text

IX 31  And Rikayon Pharaoh cunningly usurped the government of Egypt, and he exacted a tax from all the inhabitants of Egypt.
  32  And all the inhabitants of Egypt greatly loved Rikayon Pharaoh, and they made a decree to call every king that should reign over them and their seed in Egypt, Pharaoh.
  33  Therefore all the kings that reigned in Egypt from that time forward were called Pharaoh unto this day.
