| Resumo: | One way of reading the book of Esther is that parts of the work consciously serve as a subversive sequel to 1 Samuel 25. The plot in Esther “mines and undermines” the episode which features Abigail of Maon meeting with a hot-headed bent-on-revenge pre-monarchic David. Through her actions Abigail successfully neutralizes David, just as Esther neutralizes the hot-headed bent-on-revenge Haman. |
