Esther 3:12-14
v. 12-14: Haman quickly issued a decree ordering the destruction of all Jews—men, women, and children—on the thirteenth day of the twelfth month. The decree also allowed their property to be seized (Esther 3:12-14 a). This cruel and unjust order was sent to every province in the empire. The Jews were given no chance to defend themselves or escape, and no reason was given for their punishment. This reflects the extreme hatred and injustice often faced by God’s people throughout history. – –
