Scripture Snapshots: A Brief Journey Through the Bible

DAY 17 OF 66

Esther (Book 17/66) – A Book of Israel’s History

Esther tells the story of a Jewish woman who becomes queen of Persia and saves her people from annihilation at the hands of a man named Haman. It highlights God's providence and ability to use ordinary people for extraordinary purposes. Esther's courage and intercession for her people point to Jesus, who intercedes for us and secures our salvation.

These summaries are meant to help you understand the book, but so many historical and factual details were passed over in favor of brevity. This devotional plan is intended to give you a snapshot of the book and help you understand God’s redemptive plan throughout the Bible.

Key Sections: Esther 2:17, Esther 4:13-14, Esther 7:3-8, Esther 8:3-6, Esther 9:13-17.
