Esther 10- Last Chapter


Hey Guys! Today is Esther 10!


Esther 10:1-4
"King Xerxes imposed a tribute throughout his empire, even to the distant coastlands. His great achievements and the full account of the greatness of Mordecai, whom the king had promoted, are recorded in The Book of the History of the Kings of Media and Persia. Mordecai the Jew became the prime minister, with authority next to that of King Xerxes himself. He was very great among the Jews, who held him in high esteem, because he continued to work for the good of his people and to speak up for the welfare of all their descendants." (NLT)

In the end, Mordecai was prominent among the Jews, and was highly esteemed by them because he worked for the good of his people and spoke up for their welfare. In this book called, “Esther”, Mordecai was as big a hero as Esther was a heroine. Maybe the title should be “Esther and Mordecai”. It is the story of how God chose two nobodies to rescue his people and to be a blessing to a great king and his empire.
