Abstract:
Pp. 76-78, "The Antisemitism of Haman and Ahasuerus", discuss the irrational hatred of the Jews which exploded because of a personal-political confrontation (of Haman with Mordechai) and developed into a program of genocide. Concludes that Mordechai and Esther were assimilationists who eventually realized that their strength comes from attachment to their people, and that the Megillah points to the vulnerability of Jewish life in exile where the destiny of the Jews is conditioned by fickle foreign rulers.
