Esther: A Turn of Events (Chapters 5-6)

Those in the Jewish faith say, “next to the Torah, Esther is the greatest story ever told.“ There is good reason because it tells the movement of God’s hand in the circumstances of one of the Jewish peoples’ darkest moments. Just as a deviant Persian King finds favor in a bold young Jewish woman named Hadassah (Esther), God sets the stage for one of the most magnificent rescues in history.

The tension continues to wind even tighter as Esther and Mordecai create a plan to save the Jewish people. Haman strives to claim recognition in the kingdom and the plot takes an ironic twist in favor of Mordecai.
