Introducing Esther, Part One

God gives us every book of Scripture for our instruction. This includes Esther, a short narrative about a beautiful Jewish girl who became the queen of Persia. At the start of a new series, Alistair Begg considers best practices for studying Esther. Although the book doesn’t mention God, we should not read it only to encourage simple morals. Instead, Alistair urges us to look for God’s providential hand at work. The Author of reality, we discover, always guides every event—not only miracles but also daily life.
