Among the books of the Old Testament, the book of Esther presents
significant interpretive problems. The book has been preserved in
Greek and Hebrew texts that diverge greatly from each other. As a
result, Jews and Protestants usually read a version of the book of
Esther that is several chapters shorter than the one in most
Catholic and Orthodox Bibles. Jon D. Levenson capably guides the
reader through both the longer Greek version and the shorter Hebrew
one, demonstrating their coherence and their differences.This
commentary listens to the voices of modern scholarship as well as
rabbinic interpretation, providing a wealth of interpretive
results.
