Esther's Mysteries Behind the Mask Hollisa Alewine

Understanding that patterns in the Bible exist is the first step to understanding that Biblical prophecy repeats itself. Instead of asking, "When will this prophecy be fulfilled?" ask, "How many times will it be fulfilled?"The Book of Esther is replete with hidden messages. While the Name of God is never used, He works behind the scenes devising plans of salvation, atonement, and most importantly, stretching the message of salvation and atonement to cover the first fruits from among the nations. The prophetic nature of many Torah portions will dramatically unfold in the establishment of Esther's feast, Purim. The full narrative of Joseph's life in Genesis is even repeated in the Book of Esther, along with the Yom Kippur service and the instructions concerning the annulment of vows. This study removes many of the masks of Purim, but more importantly, it will reveal the bigger plan of prophecy that unlocks understanding of the future.
