God’s wonderful and amazing “from behind-the-scenes” deliverance of the Jewish people from the evil schemes of Haman is celebrated every year (late winter) during the festival of Purim. Like Hanukkah, Purim is of course not found in the Torah of Moses, yet we know that this important biblical story of Esther was told and retold throughout the Second Temple Era. Whether you're familiar with the Book of Esther or just a first-time reader, the events it describes are suspenseful and engaging. It is a tradition to read the “Scroll of Esther” once a year for Purim, and this TorahResource “Micro-Course” is designed to help you “zero-in” on important aspects of this precious book of the Bible during this season.

Step 1. Download and complete the “Purim Quiz.” You can print out as many copies as you need, or simply write your answers on a separate piece of paper.

Step 2. With your answers in hand, start the video as Rob goes through each of the 20 questions.

Step 3. Pause or review portions of the video as necessary, taking notes and writing down follow-up questions.

We hope this “Micro-Course” is a blessing and helpful in your studies!
