Originally uploaded by Glass&Light

Esther was a very wimpy woman. It took 12 months for all the virgins to come before the King because they had to go throught cosmetic treatments. She was chosen by the King after his wife said no to him and he got rid of her. So the corination began. Haman decided to ask the king if he could pass a law about persecution. So Esther asked the king if they could have a party and the only guest would be Haman. On the second day of the party, Esther told the king about the law and that she was a Jew. Esther saved the Jews from persecution and also the kind executed Haman.

Joash hid in the temple for 6 years with a priest named Jehoiada. When Joash was 7 years old, he became king! Joash was a good king. He tore down the alters to Baal and rebuilt the temple. After Jehoiada died he turned his back against God. He even ordered that Jehoiada's son, a prophet, to be killed in the same temple that Joash had rebuilt.
