Ester 9:23 Meaning and Commentary

Esther 9:23

And the Jews undertook to do as they had begun, and as
Mordecai had written unto them.
] They engaged to keep these two days as festivals annually, as they had at this time done; not in a religious but in a civil way, not as parts of religious worship, and as additions to and innovations of the law, but by way of commemoration of a civil benefit which they had received; and yet we find in later times that this was scrupled by some as an innovation; for we are told F18 that there were eighty five elders, and more than thirty of them prophets, who were distressed about this matter, fearing it was an innovation.

Ester 9:23 In-Context

21 Constituyéndoles que celebraran el día décimocuarto del mes de Adar, y el decimoquinto del mismo, cada año
22 por aquellos días en que los judíos tuvieron reposo de sus enemigos, y el mes que se les fue tornado de tristeza en alegría, y de luto en día bueno; que los hicieran días de banquete y de gozo, y de enviar porciones cada uno a su vecino, y dádivas a los pobres
23 Y los judíos aceptaron y comenzaron a hacer, lo que les escribió Mardoqueo
24 Porque Amán hijo de Hamedata, agagueo, enemigo de los judíos, había ideado contra los judíos para destruirlos, y echó Pur, que quiere decir suerte, para consumirlos y echarlos a perder
25 Mas cuando ella vino a la presencia del rey, él ordenó por escrito: El perverso designio que aquel trazó contra los judíos, recaiga sobre su cabeza; y cuélguenlo a él y a sus hijos en la horca
