Esther: A Breslov Commentary on the Megillah

This commentary on the book of Esther brings insights from the writings of Rebbe Nachman and his followers to unmask the drama of Shushan that is taking place inside each one of us at this very moment. Meet Achashverosh and his team of advisers! How does Haman’s plot translate into modern terms? How does Esther, the radiant Jewish soul, rise to the challenge? And where do we find Mordechai, true leadership, today?
Includes a history of Amalek’s attacks throughout the ages and insights into the meaning of Purim and its mitzvot: gifts to the poor and to friends, the festive meal and joyous insobriety.
