| You have it as an alternate, but just to say so, NIV and TEV have King Xerxes as husband of Queen Esther, most often referred to as just "the king". Before I could think of it, I hoped for "king of Persia". In Nov 14 Sunday School, we strung ziti and pieces of drinking straws to make necklaces, and used noisemakers in the telling of why Queen Esther made herself pretty to approach the king. |
