- In this special Purim program for My Jewish Learning, teacher and author Sandra E. Rapoport will present her original lecture and reading, “Whatever Happened to Vashti?: Unraveling Mysteries in the Book of Esther."
When Queen Vashti famously refused to dance at the king’s wine party, she precipitated a scandal in the royal court of Persia. Yet the text of the Megillah - the Book of Esther - does not tell us her fate. Was she executed for her audacity? Or did she escape? Millennia of opinions differ. Even the two Talmuds-the towering treatises on Jewish law and lore-discuss Vashti and her fate, and their conclusions differ diametrically.
22:25 Vashti was an orphan who became a queen who then became a widow or adult orphan again😮
Why is a female speaking about the Bible?
Because they have as much right/ authority to spread the Good News as anyone else. Have you not read Titus 2 where it says WOMEN are to be teachers of good things...what could be better than the Word of God? Priscilla and Aquila... Priscilla was a woman. Many of the first house Churches were hosted by women. Timothy was a significant believer because of his MOTHER AND GRANDMOTHER, BOTH WOMEN. Woman absolutely have a mandate from God to speak His Word, particularly when raising their children in His Ways, and ministering to other women.
Who said women couldn’t speak about the Bible?
Ask the Holy Spirit for the answer.
