Esther 8:12-14

Living Bible

¹² The day chosen for this throughout all the provinces of King Ahasuerus was the 28th day of February!^{[a] 13} It further stated that a copy of this decree, which must be recognized everywhere as law, must be broadcast to all the people so that the Jews would be ready and prepared to overcome their enemies. ¹⁴ So the mail went out swiftly, carried by the king’s couriers and speeded by the king’s commandment. The same decree was also issued at Shushan Palace.
