| Zusammenfassung: | God’s absence from the the scroll of Esther has perturbed many through the ages. However, some scribes and scholars have sought to insert, and thus reveal, God through various exegetical conceits. These have included references such as ha-melekh (“the king”), ha-Maqom (“the place”), divine acronyms, the helping hand of God and even the pedigree of the hero Mordechai. This article explores how commentators, together with scribal employment of visual midraš, have helped uncover the hidden architect behind the turnaround chronicled in the scroll of Esther. |
