Theological / Devotional

With all authority. Literally, “with all strength.”

This second letter. The first letter was the one mentioned in vs. 20-26. A second letter is now issued, “confirming” the observance. It went forth not as an edict, or in the king’s name, but as a letter in the names of Esther and Mordecai.
