The central plot revolves around Esther’s bravery and intelligence. Esther, an orphan raised by her cousin Mordecai, is chosen as the new queen through a beauty contest. The story takes a dramatic turn when Haman, the king’s chief advisor, plots to annihilate the Jewish people. Mordecai urges Esther to use her position to intercede on behalf of her people.

Esther, risking her life, approaches the king without an invitation, a move punishable by death. However, the king favors her and grants her request. The tables turn, and the Jewish people are saved from the plot.
