LTUTP-0106 … Esther 4:9-17; 5:1-3 ... "If I perish, I perish!"
Esther became the Queen of Persia after King Ahasuerus had removed Vashti from the position. A man named Haman rose to become the second most powerful man next to the King. He became outraged at a Jewish man named Mordecai who refused to bow to him. When Haman plotted successfully to have the King issue a decree to destroy the Jewish people, Mordecai told his niece - Queen Esther - that she needed to intercede on behalf of her people to the King. Her request was for the Jews throughout Shushan to fast on her behalf for three days and nights.
