What was the name of the queen who saved her people?
A:In the Book of Esther, Queen Esther saves her people from an evil plot to assassinate them all. Although described in the Book of Esther as King Xerxes' second wife and therefore queen, Esther was never really his queen. King Xerxes was married to Queen Amestris at the very time that the book says he divorced Vashti and married Esther, and remained married to Amestris for at least the next several years. Scholars say that the Book of Esther was a second-century-BCE Jewish novel.Answer:Hadassah or Esther, who was a young Jewish girl of the Israelite tribe of Benjamin, an orphan raised by her older cousin Mordecai in Persia. When the Persian emperor Ahasuerus (Xerxes) sought a new queen, Esther was among those selected to be presented before him. After many months of preparation, he chose her as one of his wives and as the new queen:Esther 2:15-18New King James Version (NKJV) 15 Now when the turn came for Esther the daughter of Abihail the uncle of Mordecai, who had taken her as his daughter, to go in to the king, she requested nothing but what Hegai the king's eunuch, the custodian of the women, advised. And Esther obtained favor in the sight of all who saw her. 16 So Esther was taken to King Ahasuerus, into his royal palace, in the tenth month, which is the month of Tebeth, in the seventh year of his reign. 17 The king loved Esther more than all the other women, and she obtained grace and favor in his sight more than all the virgins; so he set the royal crown upon her head and made her queen instead of Vashti. 18 Then the king made a great feast, the Feast of Esther, for all his officials and servants; and he proclaimed a holiday in the provinces and gave gifts according to the generosity of a king.

What happened in the first chapter of the Book of Esther?
Chapter 1 of the Book of Esther begins by telling us that in the third year of the reign of King Ahasuerus of Persia, he held a feast in his palace. His wife, Queen Vashti made a feast for the women in the royal house. On the seventh day of the feast, the king commanded that Vashti be brought before him to show to the people, but she refused to come. Troubled, Ahasuerus asked his wise men what he should do. They said that unless he divorced Vashti, all the women in the empire would begin to disobey their husbands. The name Ahasuerus is universally believed to be the Hebrew name for King Xerxes, who ruled Persia from 486 to 465 BCE. However, Xerxes' wife at the time was not Vashti, but Amestris. Amestris remained queen well beyond the third year of Xerxes' reign, so there can have been no Queen Vashti nor, it seems, a Queen Esther.
