Popular Bible Verses from Esther 8

Share

When the new law reached every region and every city, the Jews became very happy. The other people who lived there were now afraid of the Jews. Because of that, many people said that they themselves had become Jews.

The king's new law said that the Jewish people could join together to keep themselves safe. Jews who lived in every city could fight against anyone who attacked them. If an army of any kind attacked them, the Jews could kill and destroy them completely, as well as their women and children. They could take away their enemies' things for themselves.
