Esther in the Shadow of Iran: Then and Now - Pod For Israel

Esther in the Shadow of Iran: Then and Now – Pod For Israel

Ashley Martin maart 3, 2026 1 minuut lezen

As tensions with Iran dominate global headlines and hostility toward Israel intensifies, the Book of Esther feels less like ancient history and more like current events. Set in ancient Persia—modern-day Iran—Esther tells the story of a regime that sought the annihilation of the Jewish people. Yet even in a book where God’s name is never mentioned, His sovereignty governs kings, empires, and even the casting of lots. This episode explores how Haman’s plot was not merely political but an assault on God’s redemptive plan, how the ancient conflict with Amalek echoes through history, and why the preservation of Israel remains central to biblical prophecy. Esther reminds us that war against the Jewish people is ultimately resistance against God’s covenant purposes—and that His promises are irrevocable.

Amen! 🙌 Thanks much for this very rich Jewish perspective exposition of book of Esther. I've been praying for Israel daily throughout the day. 🙏 I'm a gentile believer who loves Israel. So sorry to see Israel suffer because the world hate God thereby hate God's chosen people. Maranatha Sar Shalom!

No matter how..is Israel today..
I keep stand for Israel..keep in my pray..in what I believe …decendant of Jacob re still there,..as the story of prophet Elijah, king ahab and izabel…still 7000,were faithfull to God..God is faithfull..to his people.I bit disappointed bcause churches likely dont care much..about Israel today..even my husbnd mocked me praying for Israel.
