n last week’s shiur we began our journey into Megillat Esther. We were introduced to Achashverosh, his enormous empire, and his lavish parties. Tonight we will get a better understanding of his relationships, both with the women in his life and his advisors. Those dynamics will play a major role in the unfolding of our Megilla and in the connection to our hyperlink, Shaul. We will also be introduced to Esther and start to appreciate her personality in this complicated piece of history as well.
