At a dark and terrifying period in Israel's history, the story of Esther reminds us of the light that shines from God's providence, his love and continued faithfulness towards his people. Daylight at Midnight traces this dramatic story as we see a young Jewess become a Persian Queen and be used for the deliverance of her people. As the central characters are examined and the plot unfolds, we are challenged to reflect on personal applications, aided by end-of-chapter questions. Crucially, through seeing Esther's obedience, Mordecai's faith and Haman's opposition, we are reminded of the thrilling and undeniable fact that God is greater than Satan's schemes. --BOOK JACKET
