The King’s Edict on Behalf of the Jews
The King gives Haman’s estate to Esther and she appoints Mordecai to administer it. She also pleads with the King to modify Haman’s edict that the Jews be killed. The King issues a new edict that allows the Jews to assemble together to protect themselves on the day they were to have been killed.
The Triumph of the Jews
Once the new edict was distributed, the Jews celebrated.
