Esther is one of the most important women from the Bible. Of all the women in the Bible, Esther is mentioned the most ("The Book of Esther"). The name Esther means hidden. The meaning of her name connects to her story because she kept her Jewish status a secret for many years. Her Jewish name is Hadassah, which is translated to myrtle ("ESTHER in the BIBLE. Heroine Who Saved the Jewish People"). Esther was raised by her cousin, Mordecai ("Sharing StoriesInspiring Change"). Esther’s first appearance in the Bible is when King Xerxes chose Esther to be his new wife, which resulted in her becoming the new Queen of Persia. Esther did not tell Xerxes that she identified as a Jew. ("Bible Gateway Passage: Esther 2 - New International Version").

When I was a little girl I played with dolls all the time, I would bath them, comb their hair, and dress them as if they were my very own babies.

The Bible demonstrates how Esther evolves from an ordinary submissive young girl to an influential queen who changed the destiny of the Jewish people. After Esther becomes queen, the king makes a law that everyone must bow down to Haman, but Mordecai did not bow down to him. When Mordecai disobeys the law, Haman plots to kill all the Jews, including Esther, due to his vendetta against Mordecai. Instead of turning to God, Mordecai turns to Esther to approach the King and beg him for mercy for the Jews. When Esther realizes she has
