THE JEWISH TRIFECTA

[Scheduled Reading: Nehemiah 8-13, Esther, Job 1-8]

When we hear of the Holocaust, we think of six million Jews killed by Hitler in the 1940’s. We forget sometimes that Jewish genocide has been ongoing for the past 3,500 years.

Pharoah set out to kill baby boys because the Jewish race was growing too quickly. (Remember Moses in the basket?)

King Herod set out to destroy baby boys as well (Mary and Joseph escaped to Egypt with baby Jesus).

The story of Esther is yet another example of an attempt to exterminate the Jews.

The reversal of fate on Haman is one of the most entertaining plot twists in all of scriptures. Read this book leisurely - and enjoy its drama.

Once again, God delivers the Jews from extinction.

Ezra-Nehamiah-Esther can be considered the Jewish-trifecta in keeping The Seed alive with a remaining remnant of Israel.
