Category: THROUGH GOOD CHARACTER

“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. 

16 So Esther was taken to King  Ahasuerus, into his royal palace, in the tenth month, which is the month of Tebeth, in the seventh year of his reign. 

17 The king loved Esther more than all the other women, and she obtained grace and favor in his sight  more than all the virgins; so he set the royal crown upon her head and made her queen instead of Vashti. 

18 Then the king made a great feast, the Feast of Esther, for all his officials and servants; and he proclaimed a holiday in the provinces and gave gifts according to the generosity of a king.”
