In other words, Esther was asking that the hanging of Haman’s ten sons not remain an isolated episode in history, but should recur in the future, as well. Yet, if this is the case, surely King Ahasuerus was in no position to accede to such a request. Only God could make and keep such a promise. An examination of the sources solves this problem, too. According to the Sages, every time King Ahasuerus is mentioned by name in the Book of Esther, the reference is to him; when the word the King, appears on its own, it refers to God.
Esther was therefore not addressing her request to Ahasuerus, but to God – who granted her request:
“And the King commanded it be done.” (Esther 9:14. What did Esther ask – to do tomorrow – let Haman’s sons be hanged.
Nachmanides asserted that any change, from the normal, in a word or letter of the Tanakh, indicates some hidden meaning. If you examine the list of Haman’s ten sons in the Megillat Esther, you will notice that three letters are written smaller:
1. the letter ת “Tav” in Parshanda”t”ah (is small),
2. the letter ש “Shin” in Parma”sh”tah (is small),
3. the letter ז “Zayin” in Vay”z”tah (is small), and
4. the letter ו “Vav” in “V”ayzatah (is large).
The Tav ת, the shin ש, and the zayin ז are written smaller. The vav is larger than the others. The three letters together form ז” שת, the number 707. The vav ו is a 6, as in the sixth century or 5707, which is 1946 CE.
The three letters together form taf-shin-zayin, the Jewish year 5707 (1946 C.E.),
So taking the letters and their numeric dates – you come up with 5707 on Hebrew calendar which is which is 1946 – after World War 2.
On January 30, 1944, Hitler addressed the German people on the occasion of the 11th anniversary of the Nazi party coming to power. In this anti-Semitic diatribe, he blamed all the ills of Europe and Germany on “international Jewry” (his words). He went on to predict that if the Russians defeated Germany then “Jewry could then celebrate the destruction of Europe by a second triumphant Purim festival.” (New York Times, Jan. 31, 1944,)
1946 was the year that the ten (10) Nazis were hung after the Nurenburg trials found them guilty of crimes against humanity relating to the genocide of the Jews. Of the 23 Nazi war criminals on trial in Nuremberg, only 10 “descendents of Amalek” were hung, thus fulfilling the request of Esther: “let Haman’s ten sons be hanged.” Normally a military tribunal required sentences to be carried out by firing squad. 11 were sentenced to death but Goering took cyanide before the sentence could be carried out.
Newsweek magazine (October 28, 1946, Foreign Affairs Section, page 46), ran a story on the hanging. The last paragraph describes the death of Julius Streicher: “Only Julius Streicher went without dignity. He had to be pushed across the floor, wild-eyed and screaming: ‘Heil Hitler!’ Mounting the steps he cried out: ‘And now I go to god.’ He stared at the witnesses facing the gallows and shouted: ‘Purim Fest 1946’.” Streicher obviously grasped some of the significance of this event as the triumph of Purim.
Many of us celebrating Purim today equate Hitler with Amalek or Haman.
On the 7th day of Sukkot, in the year 5707, corresponding to October 16th, 1946, the 10 aids to Hitler were hanged after being found guilty of crimes against humanity at the Nuremberg trials. If you understand the significance of that day in holy day Calendar – Oct 16th fell on the 7th day of the Feast of Tabernacles in 1946.
Zohar Vayikra – 31b “…On the 7th day of the Succoth (Tabernacles) festival, the judgment of the nations of the world is finalized. Sentences are issued from the residence of the King. Judgments are aroused and executed on that day.”
Remember – Tishri is the 7th month. – Trumpets – then Yom Kippur then Tabernacles. Tabernacles are about the 1000 year reign of Christ – and the 7th day of the Feast Tabernacles points to a Judgment day at the end of the millennial reign of Christ.
Trumpets warn – Atonement Seals when the books are shut and on the last Day the Judgment. The day called Hoshana Raba. Hoshana Raba is one of the most interesting and lofty days of the year. On one hand it is a regular weekday, part of the intermediate days of Tabernacles. On the other hand it’s a Holiday unto itself. A close relative of Rosh Hashana and Yom Kippur, it has its source in the traditions of the prophets. The day is considered to be the day of the final sealing of each person’s yearly verdict.
Re 20:6 Blessed and holy is he who has part in the first resurrection. The second death has no authority over these, but they will be priests of God and of Christ, and will reign with Him a thousand years. 7 And when the thousand years are expired, Satan shall be loosed out of his prison, Re 20: 11 And I saw a great white throne, and Him sitting on it, from whose face the earth and the heaven fled away. And a place was not found for them. 12 And I saw the dead, small and great, stand before God; and the books were opened: and another book was opened, which is the book of life: and the dead were judged out of those things which were written in the books, according to their works.
And like the 10 generals in 1946 – the last day (7th day) of the Feast of Tabernacles represents another judgment time for all of us. We are going to look at the other types and other men who will rise against God.
There are three ways Gods people, God’s first born, the pupil of His eye, His beloved….will be attacked in the future. Haman was but one type.
The English word Antichrist is taken from the “antíkhristos” which literally means “instead of Christ”.
There is a dragon = Satan. An Antichrist represents a beast power (political). False Prophet represents a false church. The attack on the Jews will be three fold.
The Jewish people cannot live among us as Jews. Antiochus – A False Church with Replacement theology. Want Judaism destroyed as a religion
The Jewish people cannot live among us. Antichrist Society. Anti Zionism
Want the Jews destroyed as a nation
The Jewish people cannot live! Haman Satan. Anti-Semitism
Want the Jews destroyed as a people
There were 7 princes of Persia the world empire which sat upon all the peoples of the known world and then later the 10 sons of Haman who came against the Jewish people.
These are echoes of a future time.
Esther 1 v 14 – And the next unto him [was] Carshena, Shethar, Admatha, Tarshish, Meres, Marsena, [and] Memucan, the seven princes of Persia and Media, which saw the king’s face, which sat the first in the kingdom. These princess were joined by Haman’s Ten sons….
We see another kingdom who will one day arise with seven heads and ten horns. Revelation 13:1 And the dragon stood on the shore of the sea. And I saw a beast coming out of the sea. He had ten horns and seven heads, with ten crowns on his horns, and on each head a blasphemous name. Revelation 17:12 “The ten horns you saw are ten kings who have not yet received a kingdom, but who for one hour will receive authority as kings along with the beast.
Like the sons of Haman – not royal born who joined in this plot for a short time at their end.
We must not forget that the edict to wipe out the Jews in Persia would have extended to the elect the remnant of 49,700 who left with Ezra and was obediently temple building with Haggai. They were God’s elect moved by Gods Spirit to go home.
The Beast in the future who seeks an Anti-Semitic war like Haman, will also turn his anger on the elect of God who are called out of Babylon to be faithfully temple building .
Revelation 13 v 7 He was given power to make war against the saints and to conquer them. And he was given authority over every tribe, people, language and nation.
It seems the obedient people of God are condemned by the same plot that was designed to kill all the secular Jews who stayed in Persia. Just as that edict would have killed Ezra and Nehemiah who obediently temple built in Jerusalem. They are a type of the Elect called out of Babylon awaiting the Messiah. We must realize the Bride of Christ will suffer the same fate of that other people of God. The Virgin bride of Revelation will suffer the same fate as the woman who brought forth the man child. There will only be two camps – Gods Camp and Satan’s. There are no bystanders.
Gods promise to Israel – I will never again hide My Face from them [who have returned to the Land of Israel]; for, I will pour out My Spirit upon the House of Israel — the Word of the Lord God.” (Ezek. 39:28-29).
