During the rule of King Ahasuerus, 478 bc, Esther was able to gain the trust of the King, become Queen, stop the genocide of the Jewish community and become apart of history.

Hypocrisy In the book of Esther, many of the characters shows how to be courageous, ironic, and how to be a hypocrite. Approaching kings and going to forbidden places shows courage. Being killed before wanting to be killed and there being no honor where honor was thought to be shows ironcy.

The purpose of the book of Esther is to see the providence of God even when His name is not mentioned. In this essay I will prove that Gods sovereignty over His people is clearly established in the book of Esther. I also intend to provide my explanation of how even though Gods name is not mentioned in the book, His work is clearly evident in the life of each character represented in the book of Esther.
