Esther 9:28 - Additional Comments

Here is instantiated the Feast of Purim. Purim is a late winter feast (late February or early March), the last feast of the biblical year.
Being instituted after the Mosaic Law, Purim is considered a minor holiday, and no restrictions are placed upon working. In Esther, no religious ceremonies were observed other than a time of "feasting and joy, of sending presents to one another and gifts to the poor" With no other details given for its observance, many warm Purim traditions have developed over the past 2,500 years. Primary is the reading of the book of Esther. It is also a time for remembrances, for a fast, and then a time for gifts, food, and gladness.
