The layperson will find value in the study questions that follow each chapter. The series is ideal for Sunday School and small group studies.
The book of Esther is one of the most heavily criticized books in the Bible. Yet, the book stands as a marvelous testimony of divine providence. The sequence of supposed "coincidences" defies logic, demonstrating the presence of the Lord among his people, even though His name never appears in the book.
A word from the author:
"It is my sincerest desire that these commentaries will help the reader grow in his knowledge of God's word, in his relationship with God Himself, and in his relationships with others. 'The good hand of his God was upon him, for Ezra had set his heart to study the law of the Lord, and to practice it, and to teach His statutes and ordinances in Israel' (Ezra 7:9b-10)"
