BRAGADAYJAH 1223


BRAGADAYJAH 1223
Queen Esther learns of conspiracy.
When Mordecai realized all that was done, he rent his clothes, and put on sackcloth and ashes, and went out into the midst of the city and cried with a loud and bitter cry. And he went before the king’s gate, although it was so that none could enter into the king’s gate so dressed. And in every province where the king’s decree was received there was mourning, fasting, and weeping among the Jews. And Esther’s maids and her chamberlain went and told Esther what was going on; and the news made her heart exceedingly sad and heavy. And she sent clothes to Mordecai with orders to take away the sackcloth from him but he refused. Then Esther called Hatach, one of the king’s chamberlains who had been appointed to attend unto her, and gave him a message for Mordecai, to tell her what the trouble was. So Hatach went to Mordecai while he was yet before the king’s gate. And Mordecai told him of all that had happened to him and of the sum of the money that Haman had promised to pay to the king’s treasures in return for destroying the Jews. Also he gave him to take to Esther a copy of the writing of the decree that was given at Shushan to destroy the Jews, and told her that she should go in unto the king, and make supplication before him for the sake of her people. And so Hatach retuned and told Esther all that transpired with Mordecai.
