2
one man ruled the known world his name was xerxes in hebrew ahasuerus from india to ethiopia 127
3
provinces bowed to his throne his capital was susa a city of marble gold and towering columns And to display his glory,
4
he did what powerful kings always do.
5
He threw a feast that lasted half a year.
6
For 180 days, the nobles drank from goblets, no two alike.
7
Wine flowed without limit, by royal decree.
8
Each man should drink as he pleases.
9
Then, for seven more days, he opened his gardens to every person in Susa, great and small.
10
It was power.
11
On display, the king's command was sent to the women's quarters.
12
But an answer no one expected was waiting.
13
Bring Queen Vashti.
14
Let the princes see her beauty.
15
Let all the people gaze upon their queen in her royal crown.
16
The king's command was sent to the women's quarters, but an answer no one expected was waiting.
17
Queen Vashti refused to become a spectacle.
18
She refused the king's summons.
19
My lord the king, the queen, Queen Vashti refuses to come.
20
And in that moment, the laughter ceased.
21
A silence fell upon the hall, heavy with the weight of divine judgment.
22
...of every prince, every general, every ruler of Persia.
23
The queen had defied the king.
24
Xerxes turned to his closest counselors, men who knew law and justice.
25
O king, live forever.
26
Queen Vashti has wronged not only the king, but all the princes and all the peoples in your provinces.
27
If the queen can defy you, what will every wife in Persia do tomorrow?
28
Let a royal decree go forth.
29
Vashti shall come no more before King Xerxes, and let her royal estate be given to another who is more worthy
30
and let every man be master in his own house and just like that vashti was gone her crown was empty
31
but god who is never loud but never absent was already moving a different piece into place
32
a peace no one was watching in the quiet shadows of the city destiny was already waiting
33
in susa lived a jew named mordecai he had been carried into exile as a child from jerusalem
34
he had raised his cousin after her parents died her hebrew name was hadassah which means myrtle But in Persian,
35
her name was Esther.
36
It means star.
37
Esther, listen to me.
38
The king has sent out a decree.
39
Beautiful young virgins will be gathered from every province to the palace.
40
You will go, but tell no one that you are a Jew.
41
Not yet.
42
God knows why he has hidden you.
43
But I am afraid, Mordecai.
44
I am not a queen.
45
I am just me, an orphan girl.
46
And that may be exactly what God needs.
47
Remember, Toph, the Lord placed Joseph in Egypt and Moses in Pharaoh's palace.
48
Perhaps you were born for this.
49
Across the empire, maidens were gathered,
50
hundreds of them, for twelve full months they were prepared.
51
Six months with oil of myrrh and six months with sweet perfumes and cosmetics.
52
Esther was entrusted to Hegai, keeper of the women.
53
And Hegai saw something different in her.
54
You ask for nothing?
55
The other maidens ask for jewels, for silk, for gold.
56
Give me only what you think is fitting, my lord.
57
I desire no excess.
58
That humility made her shine.
59
While others demanded, Esther trusted, and favor followed her.
60
Day after day, Mordecai walked before the court of the garden to learn how Esther fared.
61
Then, her turn came.
62
To enter before the king, she stepped out not with royal ambition,
63
but with an unseen hand guiding every breath,
64
alone, before the ruler of the ancient world.
65
King Xerxes had seen a thousand faces, but he had never seen anyone like this.
66
What is your name?
67
Esther, my king.
68
Esther, you shall be queen in Vashti's place.
69
She was now queen of Persia, the most powerful woman in the known world,
70
but no one, not But even the king who crowned her knew she was a Jew.
71
Remember no one knows who she really is.
72
That secret will soon be the only thing keeping her people alive.
73
but in the dark corners of the gate treason was already taking root
74
mordecai sat daily at the king's gate where the business of the empire was done
75
and there one afternoon he heard something he was never meant to hear
76
Two of the king's trusted doorkeepers were whispering treason in the dark.
77
This week, while he sleeps, Xerxes will breathe his last.
78
The king must die.
79
And then we shall be free of him.
80
It is time.
81
Mordecai did not hesitate.
82
He acted at once.
83
He told Esther, and Esther went straight to the throne.
84
My king, Mordecai, my cousin who raised me, Fu, has heard a plot against your life.
85
Two of your chamberlains, Bigthan and Ter 'ish who guard the door, conspire to kill you.
86
The king ordered an immediate investigation.
87
Every chamber was searched, every word interrogated.
88
The plot was investigated.
89
It was found to be entirely true both men were hanged upon the gallows for their treason,
90
and the deed was written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings, the official record.
91
Every detail of Mordecai's faithfulness was preserved in ink.
92
It is recorded, my lord.
93
but that was all no gold no honor no parade just ink on a scroll the palace went on as
94
if nothing had happened heaven had recorded it even if the palace forgot But,
95
keep your eyes on that forgotten scroll.
96
That dusty book, unread on a shelf.
97
In one single night, it will save an entire nation from slaughter.
98
But first, a new enemy will rise.
99
A man whose pride demanded total submission, and whose wrath would show no mercy.
100
Haman the Agagite was about to take the stage,
101
and the clash between faith and absolute tyranny was about to begin.
102
Then, after these things, King Xerxes promoted a man named Haman, Haman the Agagite.
103
He lifted him high, above all the princes, and the king commanded.
104
All who sat at the king's gate must bow and kneel before Haman.
105
Everyone bowed.
106
Bow before Haman!
107
Kneel!
108
Accept Mordecai standing straight You,
109
Jew, why do you transgress the king's command?
110
Why do you refuse to bow to me?
111
I bow only to the God of my fathers.
112
Why do you refuse to bow to me?
113
Day after day they asked him.
114
Day after day he refused.
115
And when Haman learned that Mordecai was a Jew, he did not just want Mordecai dead.
116
He wanted them all dead.
117
Haman approached the king with calculated poison on his tongue.
118
ten thousand talents of silver into the king's treasuries the silver is yours
119
the people also do with them as it seems good to you
120
do with them as it seems good to you with those words the king handed over the power of life and death.
121
Haman called the scribes.
122
He cast lots to choose the date for the slaughter.
123
The lot fell on the thirteenth day of the twelfth month, the month of Adar.
124
Scribes worked day and night, translating the death warrant into to every tongue of the empire.
125
On the 13th day of Adar, all Jews, they've young and old, women and little children old, shall be destroyed, slain, and annihilated.
126
And their possessions taken as plunder.
127
The couriers rode fast to all 127 provinces.
128
From the peaks of India to the borders of Ethiopia,
129
the decree flew like an arrow and the king and Haman sat down to drink,
130
but the city of Susa was perplexed.
131
Everywhere the decree was nailed to the wall, doom followed.
132
Fathers looked at their children, knowing their days were counted.
133
In every province great mourning arose among the Jews.
134
When Mordecai learned all that had happened, he tore his clothes He put on sackcloth and ashes,
135
and went out into the midst of the city O God of Abraham!
136
O God of Isaac and Jacob!
137
Have you forgotten us?
138
Have you abandoned your people?
139
He came even before the king's gate, for none might enter clothed with sackcloth.
140
Weeping and wailing, fasting, and many lay in sackcloth and ashes.
141
All hope seemed lost.
142
The law of Persia could not be revoked, not even by the king himself.
143
Unless one person risked everything.
144
Word reached Queen Esther that Mordecai sat in sackcloth at the gate.
145
Her heart seized with terror.
146
The hour had come.
147
The destiny of a nation now hung by a single thread.
148
When Esther's maidens told her of Mordecai's mourning, she was deeply distressed.
149
She sent hathak to learn what this was and why why does mordecai mourn so gotho bring me word quickly
150
take this copy of the written decree to esther show it
151
to her tell her she must go in before the king
152
and plead for her people my lady mordecai says you must go before the king and plead for your people.
153
But Hathak, tell Mordecai, see.
154
All the king's servants know.
155
Any man or woman who approaches the inner court without being called a union, the law is death.
156
Only the one to whom the king extends the golden scepter may live.
157
And I, I have not been called to come to the king these 30 days.
158
Do not think to yourself that in the king's palace you will escape any more than all the other Jews.
159
If you remain silent, relief will arise from another place, but you will perish.
160
Who knows if you have come to the kingdom for this?
161
Ayn, for such a time as this?
162
Go.
163
Gather all the Jews who are present in Susa.
164
Fast for me.
165
And then I will go to the king, though it is against the law. And?
166
If I perish, I perish.
167
For three days, night and day.
168
Eat not and drink not.
169
I and my maidens will also fast likewise.
170
For three days, no food, no water, only prayer.
171
An entire people on their knees for one girl's courage now on the third day.
172
the time of waiting was over she stepped forward on the
173
third day esther stood in the inner court opposite the throne
174
she could be killed with one word the king looked upon her
175
and favor filled his eyes what is it queen esther what
176
is your request it shall be given to you calling even up to half of the kingdom
177
if it please the king let the king
178
and haman come this day to a banquet
179
that i have prepared for the king she did not reveal her true request not yet Wisdom waited.
180
What is your petition?
181
Let the king and Haman come again tomorrow to the banquet that I shall prepare.
182
I was the only one whom Queen Esther invited with the king.
183
No one else.
184
Yet all this honor is worth nothing so long as I see that Jew Mordecai sitting at the king's gate.
185
Let gallows be made, head.
186
Fifty cubits who?
187
In the morning, ask the king to hang Mordecai upon it.
188
Fifty cubits, seventy -five feet tall, a monument to hatred.
189
They built it that very night, that night.
190
The king could not sleep, and that sleeplessness was not an accident.
191
And it is written that Mordecai had reported the plot of Bigthan
192
and Teresh And saved the king's life What honor was done for Mordecai?
193
Nothing, my king Haman, what shall be done for the man the king delights to honor?
194
Let royal robes be brought And the horse the king has ridden Let him be paraded through the streets
195
make haste do so for mordecai the jew the trap haman set for another was beginning to close
196
that afternoon came the second banquet
197
queen esther what is your petition it shall be granted you and what is your request even
198
if i have found favor in in your sight o king let my life be given me at my petition
199
for we have been sold i and my people to be destroyed to be slain and to perish but now
200
where is he who dares to presume in his heart to do such a thing
201
The adversary and the enemy is this wicked Haman.
202
Haman froze.
203
The trap he laid for an entire nation had caught his own foot.
204
The king, in his fury, rose and went into the palace garden. Do not touch me!
205
Your dynamic pleas will not save you.
206
Queen Esther, mercy!
207
Have mercy on my life!
208
Will he even assault the queen while I am in the house?
209
As the words left the king's mouth, they covered Haman's face.
210
Behold also the gallows, 50 cubits high patent, which Haman made for Mordecai, who spoke good for the king.
211
Hang him thereion.
212
So they hanged Haman on the gallows that he had prepared for Mordecai.
213
The king took his signet ring and gave it to Mordecai,
214
and Esther set Mordecai over the house of Haman. But one problem remained.
215
The law of the Medes and Persians cannot be revoked.
216
How can I endure to see the destruction of my kindred?
217
Write you also for the Jews, as it pleases you, in the king's name, a new decree may counter it.
218
The Jews in every city are granted to gather together and stand for their lives.
219
Whosoever assaults them, they may destroy.
220
Couriers on swift horses rode to every province.
221
The new decree was published, and hope returned.
222
On the thirteenth day of Adar, the Jews gathered, and no man could withstand them.
223
It was justice, not greed.
224
Sorrow was turned into gladness.
225
They called it Purim, from Pur, the lot cast for their destruction, now the name of their deliverance.
226
The book of Esther never mentions the name of God yet

Informazioni su questa lezione
Cos'è la tecnica dello Shadowing?
Shadowing è una tecnica di apprendimento delle lingue supportata da studi scientifici, originariamente sviluppata per la formazione dei traduttori professionisti e resa popolare dal poliglotta Dr. Alexander Arguelles. Il metodo è semplice ma potente: ascolti un audio in inglese di madrelingua e lo ripeti immediatamente ad alta voce — come un'ombra che segue il parlante con un ritardo di solo 1–2 secondi. A differenza dell'ascolto passivo o degli esercizi di grammatica, lo shadowing costringe il tuo cervello e i muscoli della bocca a elaborare e riprodurre simultaneamente i modelli di discorso reale. La ricerca dimostra che migliora significativamente la precisione della pronuncia, l'intonazione, il ritmo, il discorso connesso, la comprensione dell'ascolto e la fluidità del parlato — rendendolo uno dei metodi più efficaci per la preparazione alla prova di speaking dell'IELTS e per la comunicazione reale in inglese.
