Ester 10:2

2 Quanto a todos os atos do seu poder e do seu valor, e a narrativa completa da grandeza de Mardoqueu, com que o rei o exaltou, porventura não estão eles escritos no livro dos anais dos reis da Média e da Pérsia?

Ester 10:2 Meaning and Commentary

Esther 10:2

And all the acts of his power, and of his might
As Xerxes was a very mighty and powerful prince:

and the declaration of the greatness of Mordecai, whereunto the king
advanced him;
the history of that, and which tended not a little to the greatness, dignity and prosperity of the king himself, and his whole kingdom:

are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of
Media and Persia?
to which the reader is referred by the writer of this book, the which were in being in his times, but now lost: had they been preserved, they might have been of great use to lead into the history of the Medes and Persians, which for want of them is very dark and intricate; the writer of this book having nothing further to do with it, than as it related to the affairs of the Jews.

Ester 10:2 In-Context

1 O rei Assuero impôs tributo � terra e �s ilhas do mar.

2 Quanto a todos os atos do seu poder e do seu valor, e a narrativa completa da grandeza de Mardoqueu, com que o rei o exaltou, porventura não estão eles escritos no livro dos anais dos reis da Média e da Pérsia?

3 Pois o judeu Mardoqueu foi o segundo depois do rei Assuero, e grande entre os judeus, e estimado pela multidão de seus irmãos, porque procurava o bem-estar do seu povo, e falava pela paz de toda sua nação.
