It recounts a series of events unfolding over several years: Esther, of Jewish origin, becomes the favorite of King Ahasuerus. However, during his reign, the grand vizier—Haman—intrigues and obtains the power to exterminate the entire Jewish population. Faced with this threat, Mordecai appeals to his niece Esther to persuade the king to rescind the decree condemning them. The king—informed by Esther—takes all necessary measures to protect the Jewish people and condemns the vizier, along with all his sons, to be hanged on the very stake originally intended for Mordecai. Finally, the Jews establish an annual festival, called Purim, to commemorate this miracle.
