PURIM FESTIVAL
OBSERVANCE
Commentaries Queen ES-
thsr'S Intervention in
Plots Of Hamon

The Purim festival Of the Hebrew
church falls this year on Thursday,
March IL.
or half holidays in the Jewish re-
ligious calendar. and is celebrated on
the 14th day of the month Adar. The
feast of Purim is festival Of JOY and
gladness, based on the story told in
Scrolls" which are contained In the
third division of the Bible called "sa-
cred writings" It's celebration com
memorates the deliverance of the
Jews of Persia from total annihilia-
ton.
Haman, the prime minister Of King
Ahasuerus, taking offense at the lack
OF Difference, shown him by Mordecai,
the Jew, in revenge plots the destruc-
tion Of all the Jews. The king una
ware that Esther. the queen, was a
Jewess, granted Haman's request and
ordered that on a certain day chosen
by lot Tor Pur, which means casting
lots), all the Jews of the kingdoms of
Persia and Media should be destroy
ed, and their property taken as
spoils. At the Intervention of Esther.
the king withdrew the decree. order
ed Haman, the intriguer, to be exc
cuted and appointed Mordecai as
prime minister in his stead The
very days on which the general mas
sacre of the Jews was to have taken
place we're now changed into days
of Joy and feasting, and given the
name Of Purim.
Although the historical accuracy
of the book Of Esther has been called
in question and some scholars de-
scribe the origin of the feat to an
old folk-festival that was cele-
brated in Persia at the early spring
season, still whatever be it's origin,
Purim has been celebrated by the
Jews for over two thousand years as
festival Of Joy and thanksgiving
II served to recall the repeated de-
liverances that have come to Israel
in the midst Of the most dire perse-
cutions that threatened its destruc-
ton. Together with the general
spirit Of jollification. there also
grew up the beautiful custom OF
sending gifts to friends and especial
ly to the poor on this day. This
custom is called Sh'lach-Monos.
In the synagogue services this day
is distinguished by reading the book
of Esther and special prayers OF
thanksgiving for Gods protection
and never falling salvation.
