Editorial Reviews
Review
“The work is neatly arranged into categories and sections covering similar themes, and gives the reader a very good impression of many aspects of research into the book of Esther.…for anyone interested on the study of the book of Esther, this is an excellent collection.” –RRT (Reviews in Religion and Theology), 12.1, 2/05
“The entire collection attests to the richness of the story of Esther and to its timeliness in today’s world, as many people wrestle with questions of identity and faithfulness in the midst of alienation and assimilation.” –The Catholic Biblical Quarterly, 67, 2005 (Catholic Biblical Quarterly )
