| Resumo: | The Hebrew story of Esther seems to be a story without God. God does not intervene, is not present as a character in the book, is even never referred to (Fox: 235–47; Beat 1999: xix-xxii). Yet, the religious overtones are present throughout the book. The present article studies some of these religious hints, with special attention to the (reversal of the) power relationships. |
