He was a hero in the book of Esther. But, like most of us, he had another side as well. Occasionally, my second son and I dabble in the hobby of polishing rocks. With lots of time and patience, rough-hewn stones placed into a rock tumbler come out colorful, smooth, and gleaming. It’s incredible to see how a stone that is ugly and jagged can be sanded down to look beautiful. Unfortunately, weGet More Articles—Subscribe Today!

I found this article to be very interesting and most thought provoking.
I am very keen to be learning about how as a Christian we can come along side Jewish people.And by receiving articles from FOI I am being blessed in my research.

This reinforces the issue of trying to make sense of situations in our lives using human logic (Isaiah 55:8, 1 Corinthians 2:14). We simply cannot. We must live by faith (Hebrews 11:6).
Excellent article. I love to read it. I am from India. But I love to read articles about Lord Jesus and Jews.
I’m reading Divine Providence originally in old English by Puritan Stephen Charnock but done in modern English. God has plans He does not need to tell us so that He will get all the glory. And He does in Esther.
I am a Jewish believer from an orthodox background. I know more about who I am than I ever learned in the shul.
Hello Debbie,
I was just wondering what you mean by “shul”. I’m a Gentile believer but I love Israel because they are God’s people. I too have learned more about Israel as a nation and people through FOI then anywhere else. Thanks
