Many books have been written about Queen Esther, extolling her excellent character, but who is King Ahasuerus, or Xerxes, as he is known in the Greek? Is he the larger-than-life tyrant as portrayed in the movie 300, or is he the compassionate, merciful king as depicted in the movie One Night with the King? Perhaps, King Ahasuerus is someone else altogether. By the Spirit of the Lord, this book will present an extraordinary, new perspective of King Ahasuerus.
