I generally find it hard to get excited about non-fiction, but ever since I bought this book I've re-read it every year as the holiday of Purim approaches. It is a fascinating analysis of the book of Esther which makes the story come alive. Hazony's writing style is intellectual without being dry and his arguments are persuasive and passionate. Highly recommended for anyone with an interest in Bible, Jewish history, politics, or religion. ( ) geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
The Dawn removes the book of Esther from the realm of fairy tale, translating the biblical narrative's political thought into teachings of the utmost relevance today. It reveals Esther's ideas of the good state, how effective leadership makes decisions for the welfare of its people, and what modern-day Jews can learn about how to stand up to their enemies and maintain Jewish faith and nationhood even as God's face remains hidden from His people.
