Purim : The Making of a King's Bride - He is there and He is not silent

[@bluesingmusic3443]

Michael's teaching are so powerful. His "in your face", no no nonsense, method, is actually very refreshing. This is the first time, I've heard these, each one is powerful, obviously well researched, & full of the truth. I can't get enough.

Welcome to the deep-end of the pool!

[@patlacey5574]

I agree!

[@patlacey5574]

Shabbat Shalom everyone and enjoy Purim! I had a vision after watching one of these videos of the silhouette of a man with a beard with both hands up praising.

[@thorsmit6011]

I'm so thankful to have been able to find Michael's teachings immediately after having my eyes opened to Torah. His way of telling the biblical narrative and relentless pursuit of truth in his research is so refreshing to me in this faith walk with Yeshua.

How proper a time to share this teaching again, how true today. Even if it was perfect for the time when this was first produced? Will @Aroodawakening share the play from way back?

Esther was as common a name for a girl in Persia then, as it is here today. Actually, in Hebrew it's Alef-Samech-Tav-Reish, and the root is 'Samech Tav Reish' (Sey Tair), which means "Hidden". The 'whole megilla' (scroll) from 'Megillot', which means "Revealings" - or "revelations", plural. Long understood by the Sages that it is up to the reader to find the many hidden messages within 'the whole Megilla of Esther'.

Why do you calling her Easter, instead of Esther?

[@alison2161]

Easter is pagan, along with the little bunnies. Esther is biblical.

[@oathofgod7051]

Esther was a gentile and was adopted by Mordecai.

[@amsterdamG2G]

She does not appear to be gentile, to me at least, but she ( Hadassa) got a (false) gentile name .... Esther 2:20 Esther still had not revealed her lineage or her people, just as Mordecai had instructed. She obeyed Mordecai’s command, as she had done under his care.

[@bluesingmusic3443]

Many Jews who were raised to positions if prominence, under pagan kings/pharaohs, were given pagan names. As Yosaf was, as Daniel was, as Hadassah was. (Daniel says he was called Belteshazzat). It was a common practice in ancient times. Even Shaul when adopted by Paulus, used that name (Paul) that's the name western/Gentile believers know.

[@jollyrodgers7272]

NO, Esther was the daughter of Mordecai's Uncle - so she was a first cousin, blood related - how can you say she was a gentile?

[@galeogle]

Esther was his uncle's daughter, see Esfher 2:7.

[@DigaPrints]

She was Hebrew for sure, but Jewish? If I’m not mistaken she was of the tribe of Benjamin, not Judah.

[@GizmoFromPizmo]

Yeah, Easter. As if this guy never watched Redd Foxx's classic sitcom, "Sanford and Son". Esther is her name, not Easter.

[@brucknerian9664]

The excessive screaming is ear-piercing; not necessary; detracts from the narrative. And worst, mispronouncing the name of the book, and calling Esther Jewish? Jacob's name was changed to Israel, and he had 12 sons, from which 12 different groups/nations of people arose, the tribe of Benjamin being the one Esther belonged to . The Israelites of the old testament are not simply Jews or Hebrews. Jacob did not have just one son. There is a brief outline of the characteristics of each of the different groups that would arise from Israel's 12 sons (the section where Jacob before his death gathered them together); so it's quite obvious they do not all make up the Jewish people exclusively. This common misconception is a serious misreading of the scriptures and betrays a reluctance to study the Bible with the depth and seriousness it truly deserves.
