| Summary: | Scholars have noted many echoes between the stories of the Exodus of the Jews from Egypt and the salvation of the Persian Jews in the Hebrew version of the Esther tale. This discussion notes precise links in the dating, timing and nature of key events in both reports of the deliverance of the Jews. These account for the fact that Haman's edict against the Jews was issued on the 13th of Nisan and emphasise the underlying theme of the Esther tale. Les chercheurs ont repéré de nombreuses correspondances entre les récits de l'Exode des Hébreux d'Egypte et le salut des Juifs Perses dans la version hébraïque d'Esther. On note les liens précis dans la datation, le moment et la nature d'événements-clefs dans les deux récits de délivrance. Ceci justifie que l'édit d'Hamân contre les Juifs ait été promulgué le 13 Nisan, tout en soulignant le thème sous-jacent au conte d'Esther. |
