Summary: "The Bible, King James version, Book 17: Esther" by Anonymous is a historical religious text that belongs to the ancient genre of scripture. It was likely written during the period of the Second Temple, which spans roughly from the late 6th century BC to the 4th century BC. This book narrates the story of Esther, a Jewish woman who becomes queen of Persia and bravely saves her people from genocide. The narrative follows Esther, her cousin Mordecai, and the antagonist Haman as they navigate the political landscape of Ahasuerus's court. The story begins with the king hosting a lavish feast and deciding to depose Queen Vashti for disobedience. Esther is subsequently chosen as the new queen, although she keeps her Jewish heritage a secret upon the advice of Mordecai. When Haman, a high official, plots to annihilate the Jews because Mordecai refuses to bow to him, Esther courageously reveals her identity to the king and pleads for her people's salvation. In a dramatic turn of events, Haman is executed and the Jews are granted the right to defend themselves, leading to their triumph over their enemies. The book culminates in the establishment of the festival of Purim, celebrated annually by the Jewish community in remembrance of their deliverance. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
