Introduction to Esther

In today’s episode, we are continuing our new series: “After the Exile”, a study of the books of Ezra, Nehemiah and Esther. We are moving to Volume III of the series with the study: Esther – Rebuilding the Covenant Community. Watch the Video Lesson on YouTube. Introduction God had made it clear in the Torah, that spiritual adultery would lead to Israel’s judgment via exile. Through the prophet Jeremiah, God had promised that the exile would last 70 years so the land would enjoy a Sabbath rest. Despite His people’s unfaithfulness, God remains faithful. Now living under the Persian empire, the people of God are given permission to return to the land, to rebuild the Temple, and eventually the city of Jerusalem. Still, questions remain. Are we still the chosen people of God? Are the promises to Abraham and David still in effect? Is there truly hope for us? Is Yahweh still for us? The answer is yes. Because God had plans for a future and a hope for His people (Jer. 29:11) and because He loves them with an everlasting love (Jer. 31:3-4), He is not done with them. In this series, we are learning how God used people like Zerubbabel, Joshua, Haggai, Zechariah, Ezra, Nehemiah, Esther and Mordecai. They took action to help the people of God rebuild their lives and return to Him. Let’s get started with an introduction to Volume III: Esther – Rebuilding the Covenant Community.
