The Persians freed the Jews from their Babylonian captivity. Haman was the King's closest advisor and minister. He hated the Jews and cast lots for their destruction. The King's wife Esther who was a Jew persuaded the King not to listen to Haman who ended up being hanged. The Persian Empire (part of greater Iran) was very large, the Persians almost defeated the Greeks. Their empire extended from Afghanistan, Pakistan, includindg Syria, Lebanon, Jordan, Egypt, Saudi Arabia and Turkey. The Persians were defeated by Alexander the Great.<BR/>It is interesting to follow how these countries fell from one conquerer to another. What is not so interesting is the bloodshed and human suffering that followed these battles of conquest.<BR/><BR/>Irv Noble<BR/>CanadaIrv Noblenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19490962.post-79890785607588568652009-04-05T02:58:00.000+01:002009-04-05T02:58:00.000+01:00Thank you.
