My favorite part of this passage is Esther 8:8. Before we get to that, have you ever have one of those moments where you asked/pleaded with God regarding a struggle? And when God answers, you realize His answer is even more than you thought to ask. Here is Esther 8:8
But you may write as you please with regard to the Jews, in the name of the king, and seal it with the king's ring, for an edict written in the name of the king and sealed with the king's ring cannot be revoked.”
(Esther 8:8 ESV)
The King not only listened to her, but he gave her the full authority to write the edict in his name. This was all part of God's plan. So everything would be good after that for the Jews right? They would have seen God work and would now follow all his commands, correct?
The story continues.
