Many have noticed the fact than "God" is not once referred to in the Book of Esther. There may have been local and temporary reasons for this. However, the name of Jehovah does occur in Esther, hidden away in acrostics.

Comments on "Jehovah's name in the book of Esther",
By John Gilliam (Grovetown, Georgia United States) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: The Name of Jehovah in the Book of Esther (Paperback)
This is really a booklet or pamphlet rather than a book. For any Bible student who has wondered why the name of God is not mentioned in the Old Testament book of Esther, Bullinger has some answers. A person needs to be familiar with the Hebrew alphabet to appreciate the acrostic design that clearly displays the name of Jehovah. Recent interest in equidistant letter sequences has shown that much information is encoded in the Bible. It is quite interesting that Bullinger discovered the name of Jehovah as an acrostic in the book of Esther more than a 100 years ago. Good information and easy to understand explanation is made of this discovery. Well worth the price.
