Australian Presbyterian on Esther

No. 547 (April 2003) of the Australian Presbyterian (nearly always worth a look) was devoted to Esther (issue available as a pdf here).

Most significant, in my opinion, is an interview with Karen Jobes (who wrote the volume on Esther in Zondervan’s NIV Application Commentary series) which covers the history of the interpretation of Esther, the literary qualities of the book, its historicity, its main theological contributions, and more besides.
