What is the plot in the Book of Esther?
The Book of Esther tells the story of the salvation of Jewish community in Persia, and begins with Esther, the cousin and adopted daughter of Mordecai the Jew, becoming the king's new wife. Mordecai seems to have been a member of the king's court, where he soon uncovered a plot to kill the king. Esther told her husband of the plot, but did not say who gave the information. The king was tricked into ordering the killing of the Jews, but when the plot was uncovered, he ordered the Jews to defend themseleves and made Mordecai his prime minister. When the time came, the Jews fought back, killing more than 500 people in one day. Esther asked the king to allow the Jews to kill for a second day, and by the time the fighting had ended, the Jews had slain more than 75,000 people. Mordecai ordered the Jews to celebrate a festival of Purim. The festival, which is held on the fourteenth and fifteenth days of Adar, is regarded as a period of deliverance, or second Exodus, and is still observed around the world. Critics have lambasted its debauchery, the cruelty of its characters and the fact that the central characters show no kindness or forgiveness. The Book of Esther seems believable, but fundamental problems in the story call into question its reliability. For example, Mordecai is identified as having been sent into exile by Nebuchadnezzar, who ruled Babylon more than a century before Xerxes assumed power and therefore before Esther became queen.
