Esther is a book written by Nathaniel Norsen Weinreb that tells the story of Esther, a Jewish woman who becomes queen of Persia and saves her people from a plot to destroy them. The book is a retelling of the biblical story of Esther, but with added details and insights into the characters and events. The story begins with King Ahasuerus throwing a lavish party and then summoning his queen, Vashti, to appear before him. When she refuses, he banishes her and begins a search for a new queen. Esther, a young Jewish woman living in Persia, is chosen as the new queen, but she keeps her Jewish identity a secret. Meanwhile, the king's advisor, Haman, hatches a plot to exterminate all the Jews in Persia. Esther's cousin, Mordechai, urges her to reveal her Jewish identity to the king and plead for her people's lives. Esther bravely approaches the king and reveals her true identity, and with the help of Mordechai, she is able to thwart Haman's plot and save her people. The book is a gripping tale of courage, faith, and the power of one person to make a difference.A Novel Based On The Life Of The Biblical Heroine.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
