Bible (Classic Reprint)Fb&c Limited, 2018 M01 23 - 82 pages Excerpt from Bible Esther the young queen, driven by compassion for her people who have treacherously been put in peril, goes in to plead with the suspicious oriental king to whom she has been married. She knows she may involve her self in the death of those she is about to plead for, but this is all that her quiet courage has to say: SO will I go in unto the king, which is not according to the law; and if I perish, I perish.1 In equally few words also we see the essential character of Nehemiah. He is the leader in the attempt to rebuild the walls of destroyed Jerusalem. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
