Esther

Esther

Jun 2021 - Jul 2021

The Book of Esther has all kinds of intrigue - political, social, personal, and ethnic. We begin this study on the heels of Ezra and Nehemiah because chronologically they are in the same general period of history. We are already introduced to some of the key characters from our studies in Ezra and Nehemiah, but Esther concerns people who chose to stay in the region of Babylon instead of returning to Jerusalem after the captivity ended. Please join us on this excursion.
