    THe Book of Esther is written in a storybook fashion where each chapter ends climatically. It brings us to the point "for such a time as this" we are where we are.

Each chapter ends in such a way to say, “Stay tuned” or “to be continued.” The story begins about 483 B.C.; about 55 years after Zerubbabel led the first group of ...read more
