And he brought up Hadassah, that is, Esther, his uncle’s daughter: for she had neither father nor mother, and the maid was fair and beautiful; whom Mordecai, when her father and mother were dead, took for his own daughter.
Él crió a Hadasa (también llamada Ester), que era hija de su tío. Ella no tenía padre ni madre, y era hermosa y atractiva. Cuando sus padres murieron, Mardoqueo la adoptó como su propia hija.
Mardoqueo adoptó y crió a su prima huérfana Ester como su propia hija.
📚 Contexto Histórico
This takes place during the Jewish exile in Persia (around 5th century BC), when many Jews lived far from their homeland under foreign rule. Jewish families often took care of orphaned relatives, as Mordecai did with Esther, maintaining strong family bonds even in difficult circumstances. The fact that Esther had both a Hebrew name (Hadassah) and a Persian name (Esther) reflects how Jews adapted to living in foreign cultures while preserving their identity.
