Duration: 68 min 21 s
Description: In the paired pleas for life in Esther 7, Esther's costly self-identification with her doomed people models the courage believers need to identify with Christ no matter the risk, while Haman's swift, ironic fall shows that God, not karma, executes real and certain justice on the wicked; yet in Christ, believers have an interceding Savior who delivers them from every enemy.
