Esther 10
Title
1King Ahasuerus imposed forced labor on the land and islands of the sea. 2All the work of his authority and his ⌞powerful deeds⌟, ▼▼Literally “power”
and the full accounting of the greatness of Mordecai, to which the king advanced him, are they not written on the scroll of the ⌞chronicles⌟ ▼▼Literally “the events of the days”
of the kings of Media and Persia? 3For Mordecai the Jew was second-in-command to King Ahasuerus. He was great for the Jews and popular with many of his brothers, for he sought good for his people, ⌞interceding for the welfare of all his descendants⌟. ▼▼Literally “spoke peace for all his offspring”
