The King of Persia gives a banquet for his people at which he requests the presence of his wife, Vashti. She refuses and the King disowns her. As he is searching for a replacement, he meets the young girl Esther. Unaware of her Jewish heritage, King Ahasuerus falls in love with Esther. Esther then reveals to Ahasuerus that she is Jewish and asks him to show her people mercy. Rescuing God's people from destruction, Esther is a symbol of hope, the virtue that gives men and women strength in the darkest moments, and which, for the Bible, is founded on God's promise.

I liked the series quite a bit on Hallmark (mostly because of Samson and Delilah), but I only saw this particular episode recently. I purposely wanted to see it because of Louise Lombard, the excellent Evie Eliott from the excellent BBC series The House of Eliott. It was one of the few big roles she did before joining the American CSI series, and I really liked her in it. She still possessed the glamor that she wrapped around every man in 1920s London, and I just can't accept that she turned into a regular skinny blonde shortly thereafter. :( The story of the pleasant, didactic, and unproblematic The Bible: Esther is told at a favorably soothing pace, and it is really only thanks to them that I don't find the basic Bible stories difficult. It's also a pleasing combination of the best of the participating co-producing countries. It is because of the influence of this series that I really miss those great narrative films set in the ancient Orient. I've had enough of the ancient world and Cleopatra.
