What are the character traits of Queen Esther in the old testaments?
A:The Book of Esther tells us that King Ahasuerus (Xerxes) banished his first wife, Vashti, in the third year of his reign. All the virgins among the Medes and Persians were brought to Ahasuerus to see who pleased him, and Esther was chosen from them as his new queen. She found much favour with the king and was able to forestall a plot against all the Jews in Babylon, then asked Ahasuerus that the Jews be allowed to slaughter all those who had plotted against the Jews. However, biblical scholars say the Book of Esther was a second-century-BCE Jewish novel, and Esther was simply a character in that novel. Queen Amestris is accepted by historians as King Xerxes' only known wife, certainly for the first several years of his reign. They say that there never was a Queen Esther, or any Jewish queen of Persia. So, from a historical point of view there are no facts on Esther.
