If you keep silent at this time, relief and deliverance will come to the Jewish people from another place, but you and your father’s family will be destroyed. Who knows, perhaps yo u have come to your royal position for such a time as this. —Esther 4:14 In the face of certain destruction, an orphaned Jewish girl in a new position of power risked everything to save her people.
