BRAGADAYJAH 1230

BRAGADAYJAH 1230
The Treat to the Jews removed.
And Esther spoke yet again and said to the king falling at his feet; and with tears in her eyes, besought him to put away the mischief of Haman the Agagite, and the device he had devised against the Jews. Then the king held out the golden scepter toward Esther, and she rose and stood before the king. And she said. “If it pleases the king, and lf I have found favor in thy sight, and if it seems right unto you, and it is pleasing before your eyes, let it be written to reverse the letters devised by Haman which he wrote with the intention of destroying the Jews, which are throughout the king’s provinces.” For also pleaded, “How can I endure to see the evil that shall come unto my people, or how can I endure to see the destruction of my kindred?” Then the king Ahasuerus said unto Esther the Queen and to Mordecai the Jew. “Behold I have given Esther the house of Haman, and him they have hanged upon the gallows, because he laid his hands upon the Jews. Write thee, therefore for the Jews, as it pleases you, in the king’s name, and seal it with the king’s ring; for the writing which is written in the king’s name and sealed with the king’s ring may no more be reversed.” Then were the king’s scribes called at that time in the third month that is the month Sivan, on the three and twentieth day thereof and it was written according to all that Mordecai commanded unto the Jews. And to the Lieutenants, and the deputies, and rulers of the province, unto every province which are part of Ethiopia a hundred and twenty seven provinces, to all provinces according to the language thereof, and to the Jews according to their language.
