Can a Bible book that does not mention the name of God be serviceable in the Christian church?
It might seem that the only way in which it could is by something being made of the book that is not in it. But this study of the Book of Esther shows that the more one knows about the text in its context, the more one has to say that the church in all ages needs to hear — today in particular.
