The name of esther in hebrew means i hide myself. In this text, in deuteronomy, chapter 31, verse 18, god declares, i shall hide my face. E ere going to see the ways in which ester functions as a type of god and also as atype of christ. And they're tropes of veiledness and a sort of unveiling that go on throughout the entire text. So there's really a play between whether god is present or absent. There are times when he will be hidden from us, times where he will be revealed.
Can one person change the world? Dr. Ariel Silver explores the importance of the story of Esther, exile, and the Gathering of Israel, temporally and spiritually.
