just look into the basic story line!

in the story(from what i gather from the trailer- don’t worry i didn’t watch it!) this lester kid convinces vashti to go the party so she doesn’t get killed so there’s no esther as a queen to save the jews when haman comes to power.

?i?d?i?o?t?s?!?

not very smart people!

if vashti doesnt die then esther doesnt become queen right?

well, as its famously explained, when esther became queen, achashvarosh wanted to show her how special she was to him, so he wanted to honor her people but she wouldnt tell him which nation or province she was from. soooooo, he did the next best thing (in his eyes) and raised up the person who caused her to become queen, hoping she would appreciate the gesture. who was this person???? HAMAN! since haman convinced achashvarosh to kill vashti, it paved the way for esther to come into his life!

this is why it says ” ??? ????? ???? ??? ???? ???????? ?? ??? ” in perek ?- “after these” particular events of the last two perakim- the death of vashti and the subsequent instillation of esther as queen- these things are what caused achashvarosh to give haman his position.

so basically, if vashti goes to party… she doesnt die

if she doesnt die… esther doesnt become queen

if esther doesnt become queen… haman isnt raised to a more powerful position

if haman isnt rasied to a more powerful positon….HE DOSNT MAKE THE DECREE!!!!

how can they have haman making the decree if his vehicle for power got stalled back in chapter 1 ????????? how does he get to such a high position? he was the lowest of the ministers in the beginning!!!!

maybe someone can explain this -and please dont say “its a made up story” because if you are trying so warp the magillah story… at least let it make sense!!!!
