Esther 2;17 And the king loved Esther above all the women, and she obtained grace and favor in his sight more than all virgins; so that he set the royal crown upon her head, and made her queen instead of Vashti.
Â
There was a man named King Ahasuerus. He was looking for a pretty woman to be queen. He was doing this because when he called for the queen Vashti, she would not go to him. It kind of made him upset so he decided to pick another queen. He had many women come and line up for him to see who was the prettiest. Among the many women was a beautiful woman named, Esther. The king liked her and picked her.
Esther did not have a mom and dad. She was taken in and raised by a man named Mordecai. Esther was the daughter of Mordecai’s uncle. A wicked plan to kill all the Jews began to surface. A wicked man named Hamen was very evil and mean. Mordecai would not bow to him when he seen him and is made Hamen very mad. Hamen wanted all the Jews dead. Hamen did not know that Esther was a jew and that is was her people. Hamen talked King Ahasuerus into agreeing on a letter to have all the jews killed.
Esther was able to fix all this by having the king put Hamen and his 10 sons to death. Esther’s beauty captured the king and did according to what Esther asked and even promoted Mordecai in the process. Throught prayer and fasting, Esther and her people were spared.Â
