1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:04,140
An orphan girl became queen of
the greatest empire of her day,

2
00:00:04,150 --> 00:00:07,080
and kept one secret.

3
00:00:07,090 --> 00:00:10,040
Then a single ring
changed hands,

4
00:00:10,050 --> 00:00:14,310
and her whole
people were sold.

5
00:00:14,320 --> 00:00:21,610
Esther

6
00:00:21,620 --> 00:00:22,330
Now in the days

7
00:00:22,370 --> 00:00:25,810
of Ahasuerus (this is
Ahasuerus who reigned

8
00:00:25,850 --> 00:00:28,030
from India even
to Ethiopia,

9
00:00:28,070 --> 00:00:30,630
over one hundred
twenty-seven provinces),

10
00:00:30,670 --> 00:00:33,830
in those days, when
the King Ahasuerus sat

11
00:00:33,870 --> 00:00:35,110
on the throne
of his kingdom,

12
00:00:35,150 --> 00:00:37,460
which was
in Susa the palace,

13
00:00:38,230 --> 00:00:40,590
in the third year
of his reign,

14
00:00:40,790 --> 00:00:42,610
he made a feast
for all his princes

15
00:00:42,650 --> 00:00:44,770
and his servants;
the army

16
00:00:44,810 --> 00:00:48,030
of Persia and Media,
the nobles and princes

17
00:00:48,070 --> 00:00:50,070
of the provinces being
before him.

18
00:00:50,110 --> 00:00:53,470
He displayed the riches
of his glorious kingdom

19
00:00:53,510 --> 00:00:54,570
and the honor

20
00:00:54,610 --> 00:00:57,730
of his excellent
majesty many days,

21
00:00:57,770 --> 00:01:00,270
even one
hundred eighty days.

22
00:01:01,030 --> 00:01:03,860
When these days were
fulfilled, the king made

23
00:01:03,900 --> 00:01:06,360
a seven day feast
for all the people

24
00:01:06,400 --> 00:01:08,900
who were present
in Susa the palace,

25
00:01:08,940 --> 00:01:11,020
both great and small,
in the court

26
00:01:11,060 --> 00:01:12,700
of the garden
of the king’s palace.

27
00:01:12,740 --> 00:01:14,120
There were hangings
of white

28
00:01:14,160 --> 00:01:16,860
and blue material,

29
00:01:16,900 --> 00:01:19,660
fastened with cords
of fine linen

30
00:01:19,700 --> 00:01:24,530
and purple to silver
rings and marble pillars.

31
00:01:24,570 --> 00:01:27,310
The couches were
of gold and silver,

32
00:01:27,350 --> 00:01:29,410
on a pavement
of red,

33
00:01:29,450 --> 00:01:32,270
white, yellow,
and black marble.

34
00:01:32,580 --> 00:01:34,730
They gave them drinks
in golden vessels

35
00:01:34,770 --> 00:01:36,530
of various kinds,

36
00:01:36,570 --> 00:01:38,790
including royal wine
in abundance,

37
00:01:38,830 --> 00:01:41,370
according to the bounty
of the king.

38
00:01:41,410 --> 00:01:43,550
In accordance
with the law,

39
00:01:43,710 --> 00:01:45,830
the drinking
was not compulsory;

40
00:01:45,930 --> 00:01:47,830
for so the king
had instructed all

41
00:01:47,870 --> 00:01:48,750
the officials
of his house,

42
00:01:48,790 --> 00:01:50,730
that they
should do according

43
00:01:50,770 --> 00:01:52,730
to every man’s pleasure.

44
00:01:53,450 --> 00:01:55,740
Also Vashti the queen
made a feast

45
00:01:55,780 --> 00:01:57,480
for the women
in the royal house

46
00:01:57,520 --> 00:02:00,680
which belonged
to King Ahasuerus.

47
00:02:00,800 --> 00:02:03,000
On the seventh day,
when the heart

48
00:02:03,040 --> 00:02:04,380
of the king
was merry with wine,

49
00:02:05,000 --> 00:02:09,120
he commanded Mehuman,
Biztha, Harbona,

50
00:02:09,160 --> 00:02:11,600
Bigtha, and Abagtha,
Zethar, and Carcass,

51
00:02:11,640 --> 00:02:18,440
the seven eunuchs who
of Ahasuerus the king,
served in the presence
to bring Vashti

52
00:02:18,480 --> 00:02:20,260
the queen before
the king wearing

53
00:02:20,300 --> 00:02:22,780
the royal crown,
to show the people

54
00:02:22,820 --> 00:02:25,350
and the princes
her beauty;

55
00:02:25,390 --> 00:02:27,230
for she was beautiful.

56
00:02:30,030 --> 00:02:32,990
But the queen
Vashti refused to come

57
00:02:33,030 --> 00:02:33,810
at the king’s commandment
by the eunuchs.

58
00:02:33,850 --> 00:02:36,780
Therefore the king
was very angry,

59
00:02:36,810 --> 00:02:39,440
and his anger burned
in him.

60
00:02:40,550 --> 00:02:42,920
Then the king said
to the wise men,

61
00:02:42,960 --> 00:02:44,540
who knew the times

62
00:02:44,660 --> 00:02:46,020
(for it was
the king’s custom

63
00:02:46,060 --> 00:02:49,240
to consult those who
knew law and judgment;

64
00:02:49,280 --> 00:02:51,780
and next
to him were Carshena,

65
00:02:51,820 --> 00:02:55,230
Shethar, Admatha,
Tarshish, Meres,

66
00:02:55,270 --> 00:02:57,960
Marsena, and Memucan,

67
00:02:58,000 --> 00:03:00,500
the seven princes
of Persia and Media,

68
00:03:00,540 --> 00:03:01,920
who saw
the king’s face,

69
00:03:01,960 --> 00:03:04,480
and sat first
in the kingdom),

70
00:03:04,730 --> 00:03:06,470
“What shall we do
to Queen Vashti according

71
00:03:06,510 --> 00:03:07,390
to law,

72
00:03:07,430 --> 00:03:08,830
because she has not
done the bidding

73
00:03:08,870 --> 00:03:11,470
of the King Ahasuerus
by the eunuchs?”

74
00:03:12,160 --> 00:03:13,530
Memucan answered

75
00:03:13,570 --> 00:03:15,690
before the king
and the princes,

76
00:03:16,110 --> 00:03:17,880
“Vashti the queen
has not done wrong

77
00:03:17,920 --> 00:03:19,060
to just the king,

78
00:03:19,100 --> 00:03:20,380
but also
to all the princes,

79
00:03:20,420 --> 00:03:21,840
and to all
the people who are

80
00:03:21,880 --> 00:03:24,180
in all the provinces
of the King Ahasuerus.

81
00:03:24,220 --> 00:03:25,880
For this deed
of the queen

82
00:03:25,910 --> 00:03:27,690
will become known
to all women,

83
00:03:27,730 --> 00:03:28,630
causing them
to show contempt

84
00:03:28,670 --> 00:03:30,840
for their husbands
when it is reported,

85
00:03:30,910 --> 00:03:32,840
‘King Ahasuerus commanded
Vashti the queen

86
00:03:32,880 --> 00:03:34,310
to be brought
in before him,

87
00:03:34,350 --> 00:03:35,570
but she didn’t come.’

88
00:03:35,610 --> 00:03:38,190
Today, the princesses
of Persia and Media

89
00:03:38,230 --> 00:03:39,670
who have heard
of the queen’s deed

90
00:03:39,710 --> 00:03:41,780
will tell all
the king’s princes.

91
00:03:41,820 --> 00:03:44,970
This will cause
much contempt and wrath.

92
00:03:45,490 --> 00:03:46,500
“If it pleases
the king,

93
00:03:46,540 --> 00:03:48,380
let a royal
commandment go from him,

94
00:03:48,420 --> 00:03:50,100
and let it be
written among the laws

95
00:03:50,140 --> 00:03:51,420
of the Persians
and the Medes,

96
00:03:51,460 --> 00:03:52,880
so that it
cannot be altered,

97
00:03:52,920 --> 00:03:54,620
that Vashti may
never again come

98
00:03:54,660 --> 00:03:56,520
before King Ahasuerus;

99
00:03:56,560 --> 00:03:58,060
and let the king
give her royal estate

100
00:03:58,100 --> 00:03:59,860
to another who
is better than she.

101
00:03:59,900 --> 00:04:01,720
When the king’s decree
which he

102
00:04:01,760 --> 00:04:04,080
shall make is published
throughout all his kingdom

103
00:04:04,120 --> 00:04:05,740
(for it is great),
all the wives

104
00:04:05,780 --> 00:04:07,260
will give
their husbands honor,

105
00:04:07,300 --> 00:04:08,950
both great and small.”

106
00:04:09,470 --> 00:04:11,620
This advice pleased
the king

107
00:04:11,660 --> 00:04:13,020
and the princes,

108
00:04:13,300 --> 00:04:15,550
and the king did
according to the word

109
00:04:15,590 --> 00:04:18,160
of Memucan:
for he sent letters

110
00:04:18,200 --> 00:04:20,520
into all
the king’s provinces,

111
00:04:20,560 --> 00:04:23,180
into every province according
to its writing,

112
00:04:23,300 --> 00:04:25,540
and to every people
in their language,

113
00:04:25,580 --> 00:04:28,600
that every man should
rule his own house,

114
00:04:28,640 --> 00:04:31,260
speaking in the language
of his own people.

115
00:04:32,490 --> 00:04:34,610
After these things,
when the wrath

116
00:04:34,650 --> 00:04:37,530
of King
Ahasuerus was pacified,

117
00:04:37,630 --> 00:04:39,910
he remembered Vashti,
and what she

118
00:04:39,950 --> 00:04:43,120
had done, and what
was decreed against her.

119
00:04:43,170 --> 00:04:46,190
Then the king’s servants
who served him said,

120
00:04:46,310 --> 00:04:48,260
“Let beautiful young
virgins be sought

121
00:04:48,300 --> 00:04:49,580
for the king.

122
00:04:49,620 --> 00:04:52,790
Let the king
appoint officers in all

123
00:04:52,830 --> 00:04:54,150
the provinces
of his kingdom,

124
00:04:54,190 --> 00:04:56,290
that they may
gather together all

125
00:04:56,330 --> 00:04:57,830
the beautiful young virgins

126
00:04:57,870 --> 00:05:01,410
to the citadel
of Susa,

127
00:05:01,450 --> 00:05:03,530
to the women’s house,
of Hegai
to the custody
the king’s eunuch,

128
00:05:03,570 --> 00:05:04,660
keeper of the women.

129
00:05:04,700 --> 00:05:06,600
Let cosmetics
be given them;

130
00:05:06,640 --> 00:05:08,080
and let
the maiden who pleases

131
00:05:08,120 --> 00:05:11,660
the king be
queen instead of Vashti.”

132
00:05:11,900 --> 00:05:13,760
The thing pleased
the king,

133
00:05:13,800 --> 00:05:15,240
and he did so.

134
00:05:15,890 --> 00:05:17,850
There was a certain
Jew in the citadel

135
00:05:17,890 --> 00:05:20,670
of Susa
whose name was Mordecai,

136
00:05:20,710 --> 00:05:23,180
the son of Jair,
the son of Shimei,

137
00:05:23,220 --> 00:05:25,320
the son of Kish,
a Benjamite,

138
00:05:25,360 --> 00:05:27,360
who had been
carried away from Jerusalem

139
00:05:27,400 --> 00:05:29,700
with the captives who
had been carried away

140
00:05:29,740 --> 00:05:31,580
with Jeconiah king
of Judah,

141
00:05:31,620 --> 00:05:32,960
whom Nebuchadnezzar

142
00:05:33,000 --> 00:05:35,200
the king of Babylon
had carried away.

143
00:05:35,470 --> 00:05:36,430
He brought up Hadassah,

144
00:05:36,470 --> 00:05:39,050
that is, Esther,
his uncle’s daughter;

145
00:05:40,330 --> 00:05:42,530
for she had neither
father nor mother.

146
00:05:42,570 --> 00:05:45,300
The maiden was fair
and beautiful;

147
00:05:45,340 --> 00:05:48,030
and when her father
and mother were dead,

148
00:05:48,070 --> 00:05:50,790
Mordecai took her
for his own daughter.

149
00:05:51,560 --> 00:05:54,120
So, when
the king’s commandment

150
00:05:54,160 --> 00:05:56,380
and his decree
was heard,

151
00:05:56,500 --> 00:05:58,060
and when many maidens
were gathered together

152
00:05:58,100 --> 00:06:00,720
to the citadel
of Susa,

153
00:06:00,760 --> 00:06:02,680
to the custody
of Hegai,

154
00:06:03,040 --> 00:06:05,470
Esther was taken
into the king’s house,

155
00:06:05,510 --> 00:06:07,650
to the custody
of Hegai,

156
00:06:07,690 --> 00:06:09,290
keeper of the women.

157
00:06:09,650 --> 00:06:11,250
The maiden pleased him,

158
00:06:11,290 --> 00:06:13,710
and she obtained kindness
from him.

159
00:06:13,750 --> 00:06:15,670
He quickly
gave her cosmetics

160
00:06:15,710 --> 00:06:17,810
and her portions
of food,

161
00:06:17,850 --> 00:06:20,710
and the seven
choice maidens who were

162
00:06:20,750 --> 00:06:22,210
to be
given her out

163
00:06:22,250 --> 00:06:23,230
of the king’s house.

164
00:06:23,270 --> 00:06:25,930
He moved
her and her maidens

165
00:06:25,970 --> 00:06:28,730
to the best place
in the women’s house.

166
00:06:29,450 --> 00:06:31,200
Esther had not
made known her people

167
00:06:31,240 --> 00:06:34,700
nor her relatives, because
Mordecai had instructed

168
00:06:34,740 --> 00:06:37,530
her that she should
not make it known.

169
00:06:37,910 --> 00:06:40,270
Mordecai walked every day
in front

170
00:06:40,310 --> 00:06:41,890
of the court
of the women’s house,

171
00:06:41,930 --> 00:06:44,370
to find out
how Esther was doing,

172
00:06:44,410 --> 00:06:46,970
and what
would become of her.

173
00:06:47,600 --> 00:06:49,990
Each young woman’s
turn came to go

174
00:06:50,030 --> 00:06:53,390
in to King Ahasuerus
after her purification

175
00:06:53,430 --> 00:06:55,850
for twelve months
(for so were

176
00:06:55,890 --> 00:06:58,070
the days of their
purification accomplished,

177
00:06:58,110 --> 00:07:00,470
six months
with oil of myrrh,

178
00:07:00,510 --> 00:07:03,250
and six months
with sweet fragrances

179
00:07:03,290 --> 00:07:06,220
and with preparations
for beautifying women).

180
00:07:06,260 --> 00:07:08,200
The young woman
then came

181
00:07:08,240 --> 00:07:09,780
to the king
like this:

182
00:07:09,820 --> 00:07:13,120
whatever she desired was
given her to go

183
00:07:13,160 --> 00:07:15,000
with her out
of the women’s house

184
00:07:15,040 --> 00:07:16,530
to the king’s house.

185
00:07:16,570 --> 00:07:18,510
In the evening
she went,

186
00:07:18,650 --> 00:07:20,630
and on the next
day she returned

187
00:07:20,670 --> 00:07:22,700
into the second
women’s house,

188
00:07:22,740 --> 00:07:25,430
to the custody
of Shaashgaz,

189
00:07:25,470 --> 00:07:28,710
the king’s eunuch,
who kept the concubines.

190
00:07:28,750 --> 00:07:30,950
She came in to
the king no more,

191
00:07:30,990 --> 00:07:33,090
unless the king delighted
in her,

192
00:07:33,130 --> 00:07:35,350
and she was called
by name.

193
00:07:36,010 --> 00:07:37,790
Now when
the turn of Esther,

194
00:07:37,830 --> 00:07:40,050
the daughter of Abihail
the uncle of Mordecai,

195
00:07:40,090 --> 00:07:41,970
who had taken
her for his daughter,

196
00:07:42,010 --> 00:07:43,910
came to go
in to the king,

197
00:07:43,950 --> 00:07:46,650
she required nothing
but what Hegai

198
00:07:46,690 --> 00:07:47,810
the king’s eunuch,

199
00:07:47,850 --> 00:07:50,050
the keeper
of the women, advised.

200
00:07:50,100 --> 00:07:53,420
Esther obtained favor
in the sight

201
00:07:53,460 --> 00:07:55,630
of all those who
looked at her.

202
00:07:55,750 --> 00:07:59,030
So Esther was taken
to King Ahasuerus

203
00:07:59,070 --> 00:08:02,170
into his royal house
in the tenth month,

204
00:08:02,290 --> 00:08:03,630
which is
the month Tebeth,

205
00:08:03,670 --> 00:08:05,940
in the seventh year
of his reign.

206
00:08:05,980 --> 00:08:08,280
The king
loved Esther more

207
00:08:08,320 --> 00:08:11,060
than all the women,
and she obtained favor

208
00:08:11,100 --> 00:08:13,360
and kindness
in his sight more

209
00:08:13,400 --> 00:08:15,740
than all the virgins;
so that he set

210
00:08:15,780 --> 00:08:17,280
the royal crown
on her head,

211
00:08:17,320 --> 00:08:20,320
and made her queen
instead of Vashti.

212
00:08:21,750 --> 00:08:23,070
Then the king made
a great feast

213
00:08:23,110 --> 00:08:25,810
for all his princes
and his servants,

214
00:08:25,850 --> 00:08:28,010
even Esther’s feast;
and he proclaimed

215
00:08:28,050 --> 00:08:29,670
a holiday
in the provinces,

216
00:08:29,710 --> 00:08:33,270
and gave gifts according
to the king’s bounty.

217
00:08:34,560 --> 00:08:36,510
When the virgins
were gathered together

218
00:08:36,550 --> 00:08:37,550
the second time,

219
00:08:37,590 --> 00:08:40,280
Mordecai was sitting
in the king’s gate.

220
00:08:40,320 --> 00:08:41,560
Esther had not

221
00:08:41,600 --> 00:08:44,000
yet made known her
relatives nor her people,

222
00:08:44,040 --> 00:08:46,520
as Mordecai
had commanded her;

223
00:08:46,560 --> 00:08:49,360
for Esther obeyed Mordecai,
like she did

224
00:08:49,400 --> 00:08:51,580
when she was
brought up by him.

225
00:08:52,270 --> 00:08:54,740
In those days,
while Mordecai was sitting

226
00:08:54,780 --> 00:08:56,320
in the king’s gate,

227
00:08:56,460 --> 00:08:59,540
two of the king’s
eunuchs, Bigthan and Teresh,

228
00:08:59,580 --> 00:09:02,140
who were doorkeepers,
were angry, and sought

229
00:09:02,180 --> 00:09:04,860
to lay hands
on the King Ahasuerus.

230
00:09:04,900 --> 00:09:08,060
This thing became known
to Mordecai,

231
00:09:08,100 --> 00:09:09,520
who informed Esther
the queen;

232
00:09:09,560 --> 00:09:11,360
and Esther informed
the king

233
00:09:11,400 --> 00:09:13,060
in Mordecai’s name.

234
00:09:13,370 --> 00:09:15,360
When this matter
was investigated,

235
00:09:15,400 --> 00:09:17,960
and it was found
to be so,

236
00:09:18,000 --> 00:09:20,260
they were both hanged
on a gallows;

237
00:09:20,300 --> 00:09:21,440
and it was written
in the book

238
00:09:21,480 --> 00:09:23,940
of the chronicles
in the king’s presence.

239
00:09:25,780 --> 00:09:27,250
After these things

240
00:09:27,290 --> 00:09:30,290
King Ahasuerus promoted
Haman the son

241
00:09:30,330 --> 00:09:33,810
of Hammedatha the Agagite,
and advanced him,

242
00:09:33,850 --> 00:09:35,770
and set his seat
above all the princes

243
00:09:35,810 --> 00:09:37,060
who were with him.

244
00:09:37,100 --> 00:09:39,600
All the king’s servants
who were

245
00:09:39,640 --> 00:09:41,820
in the king’s
gate bowed down

246
00:09:41,860 --> 00:09:43,020
and paid homage

247
00:09:43,060 --> 00:09:44,860
to Haman,
for the king

248
00:09:44,900 --> 00:09:47,310
had so commanded
concerning him.

249
00:09:47,350 --> 00:09:49,160
But Mordecai
didn’t bow down

250
00:09:49,200 --> 00:09:50,860
or pay him homage.

251
00:09:51,680 --> 00:09:53,550
Then the king’s servants
who were

252
00:09:53,590 --> 00:09:56,370
in the king’s gate
said to Mordecai,

253
00:09:56,550 --> 00:09:59,160
“Why do you disobey
the king’s commandment?”

254
00:09:59,750 --> 00:10:00,820
Now it came
to pass,

255
00:10:00,860 --> 00:10:02,520
when they spoke daily
to him,

256
00:10:02,560 --> 00:10:04,140
and he didn’t listen
to them,

257
00:10:04,180 --> 00:10:05,620
that they told Haman,

258
00:10:05,660 --> 00:10:09,000
to see whether
Mordecai’s reason would stand;

259
00:10:09,040 --> 00:10:10,380
for he
had told them

260
00:10:10,420 --> 00:10:12,060
that he was
a Jew.

261
00:10:12,850 --> 00:10:16,050
When Haman saw that
Mordecai didn’t bow down

262
00:10:16,090 --> 00:10:17,970
nor pay him homage,

263
00:10:18,350 --> 00:10:19,670
Haman was full
of wrath.

264
00:10:19,710 --> 00:10:22,050
But he scorned
the thought

265
00:10:22,090 --> 00:10:24,590
of laying hands
on Mordecai alone,

266
00:10:24,630 --> 00:10:25,670
for they
had made known

267
00:10:25,710 --> 00:10:27,620
to him Mordecai’s people.

268
00:10:27,660 --> 00:10:30,580
Therefore Haman sought
to destroy all

269
00:10:30,620 --> 00:10:32,280
the Jews
who were throughout

270
00:10:32,320 --> 00:10:34,500
the whole kingdom
of Ahasuerus,

271
00:10:34,540 --> 00:10:36,820
even Mordecai’s people.

272
00:10:38,060 --> 00:10:39,270
In the first month,

273
00:10:39,310 --> 00:10:41,050
which is
the month Nisan,

274
00:10:41,090 --> 00:10:43,670
in the twelfth year
of King Ahasuerus,

275
00:10:43,710 --> 00:10:46,690
they cast Pur,
that is,

276
00:10:46,730 --> 00:10:49,410
the lot, before Haman
from day to day,

277
00:10:49,450 --> 00:10:50,790
and from month
to month,

278
00:10:50,830 --> 00:10:53,170
and chose
the twelfth month,

279
00:10:53,210 --> 00:10:55,090
which is
the month Adar.

280
00:10:55,760 --> 00:10:58,560
Haman said
to King Ahasuerus,

281
00:10:58,600 --> 00:11:00,910
“There is a certain
people scattered abroad

282
00:11:00,950 --> 00:11:02,950
and dispersed among
the peoples in all

283
00:11:02,990 --> 00:11:04,510
the provinces
of your kingdom,

284
00:11:04,550 --> 00:11:07,150
and their laws are
different from other people’s.

285
00:11:07,190 --> 00:11:09,360
They don’t keep
the king’s laws.

286
00:11:09,400 --> 00:11:11,820
Therefore it is not
for the king’s profit

287
00:11:11,860 --> 00:11:13,120
to allow them
to remain.

288
00:11:13,160 --> 00:11:15,410
If it pleases
the king,

289
00:11:15,450 --> 00:11:17,650
let it be written
that they be destroyed;

290
00:11:17,690 --> 00:11:19,630
and I will pay
ten thousand talents

291
00:11:19,670 --> 00:11:20,830
of silver
into the hands

292
00:11:20,870 --> 00:11:22,250
of those who are
in charge

293
00:11:22,290 --> 00:11:23,690
of the king’s business,

294
00:11:23,730 --> 00:11:25,930
to bring it
into the king’s treasuries.”

295
00:11:26,640 --> 00:11:28,990
The king took his
ring from his hand,

296
00:11:29,020 --> 00:11:31,350
and gave it
to Haman the son

297
00:11:31,380 --> 00:11:35,630
of Hammedatha the Agagite,
the Jews’ enemy.

298
00:11:35,670 --> 00:11:38,050
The king said
to Haman,

299
00:11:38,130 --> 00:11:39,920
“The silver is given
to you,

300
00:11:39,960 --> 00:11:42,080
the people also,
to do with them

301
00:11:42,120 --> 00:11:43,900
as it seems good
to you.”

302
00:11:45,990 --> 00:11:47,700
And inside the palace,

303
00:11:47,740 --> 00:11:50,040
the queen
still knew nothing.
