Get StartedUnderstanding Why Purim Is Called Purim (Part 4 of 4)
Why is It Called Purim & What Does It Refer To?
Rabbi Fohrman takes a closer look at the words in the Book of Numbers and shows how a change in the vowelization of the passage becomes almost a prophetic message to Esther, hundreds of years later. If she chooses not to remain silent, her actions have the opportunity to save the Jewish nation from mass-genocide.
Rabbi Fohrman also further demonstrates that the holiday of Purim is named for Esther's actions and not for Haman's. Want to understand how? Watch the video to find out!
