📚 Contexto Histórico
In the Book of Esther, which takes place during the Persian Empire's rule over the exiled Jews following the Babylonian conquest, Mordecai is introduced as a Jewish man living in the city of Susa who takes responsibility for his orphaned cousin. He adopts Hadassah, also known as Esther, after her parents' death, reflecting the ancient Near Eastern cultural norm of family members caring for vulnerable relatives like orphans. This sets the stage for the larger narrative where Esther's beauty and Mordecai's guidance play key roles in the survival of the Jewish people.
