1 janv. 475 av. J.-C. - Esther
Description:
Writer(s): MordecaiPlace Written: Shushan, Elam
Writing Completed: c. 475 B.C.E.
Time Covered: 493-a. 475 B.C.E.
A book of the Hebrew Scriptures, the title of which is taken from the name of its principal character, although some copies of the Latin Vulgate call it "Ahasuerus" after the Persian king who figures prominently in the account. The Jews call it Meghil·lath' 'Es·ter' or simply the Meghil·lah', meaning "roll; scroll," because for them it constitutes in itself a very highly regarded roll.
In the book of Esther the regnal years of this king apparently are counted from the coregency with his father Darius the Great. Because the first events related in the book of Esther occurred in the third year of his reign and the rest of the account covers the remainder of his reign, the book evidently covers the period from 493 B.C.E. to about 475 B.C.E. - See PERSIA, PERSIANS (The Reigns of Xerxes and of Artaxerxes).
