Esther

Esther, a Jewess who was married to Ahasuerns, King of Persia, and whose adventures and danger from Haman, and advocacy of her people, are recorded in the Book of Esther, which, however, is often regarded as altogether apocryphal. Those who believe in its historical accuracy are in doubt whether Darius or Xerxes is spoken oi under the name of Ahasuerus.
