The king was sending his orders to each nation in their language. This means that at least one person was Jewish who knew to write in Hebrew.
Only one person did not bow to Haman and that person, Mordecai, claim that this is because he was Jewish. It is clear that there was no other known Jewish that did bow.
So Mordecai was the Jewish representative in the King's court that represent his Jewish nation and translated the King's orders to the Jews.

If you look at the bible, it tells you that Esther means star and it was an assumed name so she wouldn't be persecuted for her Jewish background. It tells us that her real name was Hadassah.Est 2:7 And Mordecai had brought up Hadassah, that is, Esther, his uncle's daughter, for she had neither father nor mother. The young woman was lovely and beautiful. When her father and mother died, Mordecai took her as his own daughter.Est 2:15 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.
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.

There were two men named Mordecai in the Bible. The first one assisted Zerubbabel is discussed in Nehemiah 7:5-7. The second is more well-known as he was discussed extensively in the Bible book of Esther. This Mordecai was a servant of King Ahaseurus of Persia and the cousin of Queen Esther. Mordecai was persecuted by the prime minister Haman the Agagite to the extent that Haman plotted to rid the land of Mordecai and all the Hebrews. Because of her great courage, Queen Esther was instrumental in exposing this plot and saved both Mordecai and her people.
Mordecai's arch enemy was Haman, a high-ranking official in the Persian Empire. Haman plotted to annihilate the Jewish people, primarily targeting Mordecai for refusing to bow to him. This conflict is central to the Book of Esther in the Hebrew Bible, where Mordecai ultimately thwarts Haman's plans, leading to Haman's downfall.
