The World English Bible (WEB): Esther
From www.ebible.org with slight reformatting by Martin Ward
"The World English Bible (WEB): Esther" by Anonymous is a biblical text from the Old Testament, likely written in the early centuries BC during the Persian Empire's dominance. This book is often classified within religious scripture and recounts the story of a Jewish woman, Esther, who becomes queen and her pivotal role in saving her people from annihilation. The narrative centers around Esther, a Jewish orphan raised by her cousin Mordecai, who is selected to become queen after Queen Vashti is deposed for disobeying King Ahasuerus. The story intensifies as Haman, a royal official, plots to destroy the Jewish people after Mordecai refuses to bow to him. Esther bravely intervenes on behalf of her people by revealing her identity to the king and exposing Haman's treachery. The climax reveals a dramatic turn of events leading to Haman's downfall and the Jews' victory over their enemies, establishing the festival of Purim to commemorate their deliverance. The book emphasizes themes of courage, faith, and divine providence. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
Reading ease score: 78.1 (7th grade). Fairly easy to read.
