Exploring the Later Greek Additions to the Book of Esther

This chapter explores the later Greek version of the book of Esther and its relationship to the original version, considering the decline of the Persian Empire, the rise of Alexander the Great, and the impact on the Jewish people. The additions to Esther are discussed as an attempt to make the story more relevant in a post-Alexander the Great world, with a promise of further exploration and interpretation in the next episode.
