31 - Esther: queen for such a time as this (1) And I will certainly hide my face on that day because of all their wickedness in turning to other gods (Deut. 31:18) … let the girl who pleases the king be queen instead of Vashti … Now the king was attracted to Esther more than to any of the other women, and she won his favor … So he set a royal crown on her head and made her queen … (Esther 2:4,17) 31 - Esther: queen for such a time as this (1)

31 - Esther: queen for such a time as this (2) Mordechai … urge[d] her to go into the king’s presence to beg for mercy and plead with him for her people … he … answer[ed] ‘Do not think that because you are in the king’s house you alone of all the Jews will escape. For if you remain silent at this time, relief and deliverance for the Jews will arise from another place, but you and your father’s family will perish. And who knows but that you have come to royal position for such a time as this?’ (Esther 4:7,8,13,14) 31 - Esther: queen for such a time as this (2)

31 - Esther: queen for such a time as this (3) Then Esther sent this reply to Mordechai: ‘Go gather together all the Jews … and fast for me. Do not eat or drink for three days, night or day. I and my maids will fast as you do. When this is done, I will go to the king, even though it is against the law. And if I perish, I perish’ (Esther 4:15,16) 31 - Esther: queen for such a time as this (3)
