Esther

I start leading the team in studies in Esther this coming Friday. I am really looking forward to that. It does however mean that I have to touch on the subject of women in society of that day. Queen vashti was after all deposed for not obeying her husband the king.

However we see in this book Gods providence even though God is not specifically mentioned. I also find that I am taking more and more of an interest in the Jewish feasts and very soon because of reading this book I will be looking at the feast of purim. I expect not only to teach the team but to derive great benefit from it myself.
