The book of Esther tells the story of God’s wonderful care over His people when an enemy tried to destroy them. The account of the events in the book of Esther happened at a time when the people of God were captive in a strange land. As we have noticed before, this captivity happened because of their disobedience to God’s will and commands to them.
The events recorded in the book of Esther show how God can care for His people in wonderful ways when He is hidden behind the scenes. Mordecai and Esther were Jews and Jehovah was their God, and they were wonderfully kept and protected by God when their wicked enemy would have destroyed them.
