A:No one knows who wrote the Book of Esther, but some who consider it to be an accurate account do say that the author could have been Mordecai, one of the characters in the book. However, there are enough historical errors in Esther to demonstrate that the book was written centuries after the events portrayed and therefore could not have been written by Mordecai.The consensus of biblical scholars is that the Book of Esther is a second-century-BCE novel. The discovery of the Dead Sea Scroll fragments now known as proto-Esther,with several parallels to the Book of Esther suggests, but does not prove, that the Book of Esther was inspired by proto-Esther. In other words, Mordecai played no part in writing this book, and he would seem to have been a literary creation.
