The Bible does not specify Mordecai's exact age when Esther became queen. However, it is generally believed that Mordecai was significantly older than Esther, as he is described as her cousin and guardian. Some interpretations suggest he could have been in his 40s or 50s, but this is not definitively stated in the text. Therefore, any specific age would be speculative.

What was Queen Esther's date of birth?

A:The Book of Esther does not tell us how old Esther was when she became queen to King Ahasuerus (Xerxes), so it is not possible to say just when she was born. Historians say there never was a Queen Esther (or a Queen Vashti) of Persia, and biblical scholars say that the Book of Esther was actually a novel, written in the second century BCE, so we will never have a date of birth for Esther.
