The Story of Esther the Queen is a popular exposition written by Alexander Macleod Symington in 1878. The book tells the story of Esther, a Jewish queen who became the wife of King Ahasuerus of Persia. The story begins with the king's banquet and his request for Queen Vashti to appear before him. When she refuses, she is banished and a search is made for a new queen. Esther, a beautiful Jewish girl, is chosen and becomes the new queen. The plot thickens when Haman, the king's advisor, plots to kill all the Jews in the kingdom. Esther, with the help of her cousin Mordecai, devises a plan to save her people. She risks her own life by revealing her Jewish heritage to the king and pleading for the lives of her people. The king is moved by her bravery and grants her request, allowing the Jews to defend themselves against their attackers. The Story of Esther the Queen is a religious text that explores themes of faith, courage, and loyalty. Symington's exposition offers a detailed analysis of the story, providing historical context and theological insights. The book is written in a clear and accessible style, making it suitable for readers of all ages and backgrounds. It is a classic work that continues to be studied and appreciated by scholars and laypeople alike.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
