Esther 9:30 Meaning and Commentary

Esther 9:30

And he sent letters unto all the Jews
That is, Mordecai did, signed in the queen's name, and his own:

to the hundred twenty and seven provinces of the kingdom of Ahasuerus;
among which was Judea, that was become a province, first of the Chaldean, now of the Persian empire, see ( Ezra 5:8 ) to whom also these letters were sent, directing and ordering the Jews there to observe these days, who were also concerned in the deliverance wrought:

with words of peace and truth
exhorting them to live in peace with one another, and their neighbours, and to constancy in the true religion; or wishing them all peace and prosperity in the most loving and sincere manner.

Esther 9:30 In-Context

28 Isti sunt dies, quos nulla umquam delebit oblivio: et per singulas generationes cunctae in toto orbe provinciae celebrabunt: nec ulla civitas, in qua dies phurim, id sortium, non observentur a Iudaeis, et ab eorum progenie, quae his ceremoniis obligata est.

29 Scripseruntque Esther regina filia Abihail, et Mardochaeus Iudaeus etiam secundam epistolam, ut omni studio dies ista sollemnis sanciretur in posterum.

30 et miserunt ad omnes Iudaeos, qui in centum viginti septem provinciis regis Assueri versabantur, ut haberent pacem, et susciperent veritatem,

31 observantes Dies sortium, et suo tempore cum gaudio celebrarent: sicut constituerant Mardochaeus et Esther, et illi observanda susceperunt a se, et a semine suo ieiunia, et clamores, et Sortium dies,

32 et omnia, quae libri huius, qui vocatur Esther, historia continentur.
