Book Description
Esther often seems like an anomaly-a book of the Bible that never mentions God or his direct intervention. Yet the book feels closest to many Christians' own experience; few of us have experienced divine intervention, and our world seems just as secular as Esther's. We are tempted to ask, of her world and ours-where is God in all this? If he is real, why doesn't he show himself? Bryan Gregory shows us how Esther's literary techniques depict God's "absent presence" and "hidden involvement," encouraging us that while God appears uninvolved, he is at work under the surface to accomplish his purposes and deliver his people-ultimately revealing his hidden presence in Christ. - Amazon.com

Exalting Jesus in Esther
Author: Landon Dowden
Publisher: B&H Publishing Group
ISBN: 1433648407
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 195
Book Description
Exalting Jesus in Esther is part of the Christ-Centered Exposition Commentary series. Edited by David Platt, Daniel L. Akin, and Tony Merida, this new commentary series, projected to be 48 volumes, takes a Christ-centered approach to expositing each book of the Bible. Rather than a verse-by-verse approach, the authors have crafted chapters that explain and apply key passages in their assigned Bible books. Readers will learn to see Christ in all aspects of Scripture, and they will be encouraged by the devotional nature of each exposition presented as sermons and divided into chapters that conclude with a “Reflect & Discuss” section, making this series ideal for small group study, personal devotion, and even sermon preparation. It’s not academic but rather presents an easy reading, practical and friendly commentary. The author of Exalting Jesus in Esther is Landon Dowden.
