Esther, Old Testament: The Book of Esther

Esther is the last woman recorded in the Old Testament. We know nothing about her life. Her parents and relatives may have been taken to Babylon around 600 BC at the same time as the prophet Jeremiah. Her parents and relatives later settled in exile and never returned to Jerusalem. Esther is the daughter of Abihail, the city of Shushan, where the Persian palace is located. Her parents died when she was young, so she was brought up by Mordecai. Mordecai loved Esther very much and regarded her as his own. Esther was also very obedient, taking Mordecai as his father and obeying his words. The Book of Esther describes this very ordinary Jewish woman, but later she became the legendary story of the Persian queen. This book is also named after her. The Persian name Esther means "a star". To the Jews at that time, she was called the "Star of Hope"-"Star of Joy"-"Star of Excellence". In fact, everything she has done for her compatriots is just like these titles. Among the many women in ancient Hebrew, nothing is more prominent and brilliant than this name. As far as historical celebrities are concerned, Esther is really a great heroine. She saved her country in extreme danger. As far as ordinary women are concerned, she is beautiful, charming, firm, cautious and confident. Combining these advantages, wealth, status and power can't corrode her lofty character. Esther was chosen as the queen of Persia not by accident or luck, but because she was born beautiful and stood out among many women. During the whole year she prepared for the Persian palace, she gave special respect to the people in the palace. This noble and beautiful character is not fake, but a natural expression of her character. When the king first recruited her, he was deeply attracted by Esther. You should know that Ahasuerus is a king who has read countless women, and the beauty in his palace is of course like a cloud. If Esther was not particularly outstanding, how could he say, "The king loves Esther too much for his daughters, and she is more favored than all virgins in his eyes, so the king put the queen's crown on her head and made her queen instead of Vashti"? (S2: 17) Esther was praised not for her beauty and kindness; But she didn't forget her roots after her status rose, and she didn't feel ashamed when her family was in danger. She still obeyed Mordecai's orders. This is her commendable place. People can often show their true colors at the most critical moment. The greatest thing about Esther is that when her compatriots are in danger of life and death, she can stand up resolutely and risk her life to go to the king's palace. She said to Mordecai, "Go and gather all the Jews in Shushan, and fast for me for three days and three nights, without eating or drinking. My maid-in-waiting and I will fast in the same way, and then I will go in illegally to see the king. If I die, I will die! (Si 4: 16) It should be noted that Esther is the queen at this time. She is loved above the palace, but she is willing to sacrifice herself and suffer with her compatriots, and save them from the hot water at the cost of her life. As a result, due to this fearless spirit, firm confidence and wisdom, our compatriots turned the corner and were rescued from the abyss of death, while the enemy was defeated and suffered heavy losses. Esther became the "savior" to save her compatriots, just like her name. Author: He Weizhong quoted from: Astor Christian Network? Esther Blanchett = the "Star of Hope" in the drama Blood of the Holy Ghost. The first heroine who grew up in istvan Church, whose real identity is the princess of albion, was only 17 years old. She was sent abroad before her father was assassinated and met Abel when he went to istvan to deal with the "Star of Mourning" incident. Later, he liked Abel and captured the hearts of Pope Zheng Tai and Zheng Tai nobles.

Edit this passage by Esther O 'Fallin, a German Jewish female singer.

This lovely big-eyed sister Esther is the dream lover of every audio enthusiast. Why do you say that? Because her voice is so beautiful, beautiful and free from vulgarity, and full of sincere feelings, it is no wonder that since the 1970s, fans who play audio have received a LP or CD of hers for voice audition, applying the mantra of fans more than 65,438+00 years ago: "Without Esther, you'd better not tell others that you are an enthusiast!" This shows her musical influence. Even if she sings German, you won't feel any language barrier when you hear her simple and straightforward singing, because music has no borders.

The Biography of Esther O 'Fallin

Esther of Arim began to perform in Israel at the age of 6, and she is a born talented singer. She started recording at the age of 65,438+08, during which she collaborated on "Conquering Abi Ofarim", and Abi mainly accompanied Esther or guitar. Before entering the recording studio, Frank Sinatra had signed several performance contracts with her. 196 1 year, Esther took part in the Israeli singing competition and won the top two with two different songs. Saeini Imcha was the song that won the first place at that time. 1962' s album Hayu Laylot established Esther's position as the leading singer in Israel, during which there were too many classic songs. 1962 Esther took part in an international singing competition held in Poland, won the first prize with the song Autumn, and then lived with Abby in Switzerland. 1963, Esther represented Switzerland in the Eurovision singing competition, which is the highest level singing competition in Europe. Esther is singing "Please don't leave" in French. When the judges announced that Esther was the first, the audience cheered, but when the score was confirmed, Esther was pulled to the second place because of cheating in the Nordic countries (in the same year, the famous Greek female singer nana mouskouri won the eighth place on behalf of Luxemburg, but her score was less than one third of Esther's). This incident became the biggest scandal in the history of European TV networks, but Esther became popular all over Europe and published her records all over the world. During Esther's time, records released in Europe and America were very popular. 1965, Esther recorded a Broadway-style album "Is it really me?" The producer, arranger and conductor are all the authors of "Sweet Taste" Bobby Scott. As for Esther, Scott thinks that no matter how difficult the arrangement is, Esther can handle it with ease and is a natural genius. Esther suddenly switched from the highest note to the lowest note, so naturally and effortlessly. The treble soared into the sky and the bass was as gentle as water, so that some fans in barbra streisand had to admit Esther's talent and follow Esther instead. Morning in My Life is a song written by Bee Gees, and the version of the single record is accompanied by Bee Gees. Of course, the version in the album is accompanied by Abi and included in the "2 in 3" album. The last song of this album, "Cinderella Rockefeller", quickly became popular in the style of "nonsense" under the wrong broadcast of a British DJ, and the single record published afterwards ranked first in European countries. The following year, Esther and Abby made persistent efforts to adapt and re-record their famous song "Dance Again", which tells the story of a greedy woman who loves dancing. It is incomprehensible that when Esther was very popular in Europe, her songs were banned in Israel, and the release of records was banned until 1967.
