MORDECHAI



http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mordecai
Mordecai or Mordechai (Hebrew: מָרְדֳּכַי, Standard Mordoḫay Tiberian Mordŏḵay) -
the son of Jair, of the tribe of Benjamin, is one of the main personalities
in the Book of Esther in the Hebrew Bible.

Well, now the mystery of the gate of the guard continues, with Mordecai.
This is the passage I opened to read in the Bible: June 1st, 2007. . .
Esther 9: 1 -17


Being that Temple Mount is Benjamin Tribe geography. See how the
Mordecai and Esther, who are both Benjamin Tribe, continue revealing
how the Gate of Benjamin, is a major keycode:

Genesis 44:12
And he searched and began at the eldest and left at the youngest and
the cup(sceptre) was found in Benjamin's sack


Zechariah 14:10

10All the land will be changed into a plain from (Q)Geba to (R)
Rimmon south of Jerusalem; but Jerusalem will (S)rise and (T)remain
on its site from (U)Benjamin's Gate as far as the place of the First
Gate to the (V)Corner Gate, and from the (W)Tower of Hananel to the
king's wine presses.


The joyous dedication of the second Holy Temple (Beit HaMikdash), built by Ezra on the site of the 1st Temple in Jerusalem, was celebrated on the 3rd of Adar of 515 BCE, after four years of work.
Adar I and II occur during February–March on the Gregorian calendar. ( Days of Purim, could be 2008 )

Esther and Mordecai, by Aert de Gelder

His life and deeds

Mordecai resided in Susa, the metropolis of Persia. He adopted his cousin Hadassah(Esther), an orphan child, whom he tenderly brought up as his own daughter. When she was brought into the harem of king Ahasuerus and made queen in the place of the deposed queen Vashti, Mordecai was promoted to some office in the court, and was one of those who "sat in the king's gate". While holding this office, he discovered a plot of the eunuchs to put the king to death, which, by his vigilance, was defeated. His services to the king in this matter were duly recorded in the royal chronicles.

[ The Gate of the Guard: . . ."Mordecai" = sat in the king's gate ]

This gate (also called the King's Gate because it led to the palace) http://www.churchlink.com.au/churchlink/bible_studies/dotc/dotc6.html

Prophet status: Mordecai . . .

The Talmud lists him and his cousin Esther as prophets (See Megilla 15). The Talmud says Mordecai prophesied in the second year of Darius.

Additionally, Mordecai's genealogy in the second chapter of the Book of Esther is given as a descendant of Kish of the Tribe of Benjamin, who is the father of King Saul and the Talmud accords him the status of a descendant of the first King of Israel[1].

13 Adar - (522 BCE) - War against enemies of the Jews in Persia


On the 13th of Adar of the year 522 BCE, battles were fought throughout the Persian Empire between the Jews and those seeking to kill them in accordance with the decree issued by King Achashveirosh 11 months earlier. (Achashveirosh never rescinded that decree; but after the hanging of Haman on Nissan 16 of the previous year, and Queen Esther's pleading on behalf of her people, he agreed to issue a second decree authorizing the Jews to defend themselves against those seeking to kill them.) 75,000enemies were killed on that day, and 500 in the capital, Shushan, including Haman's ten sons (Parshandata, Dalfon, Aspata, Porata, Adalia, Aridata, Parmashta, Arisai, Aridai and Vaizata), whose bodies were subsequently hanged. The Jews did not take any of the possessions of the slain as booty, though authorized to do so by the king's decree. (The Book of Esther, chapter 9).

The joyous dedication of the second Holy Temple (Beit HaMikdash), built by Ezra on the site of the 1st Temple in Jerusalem, was celebrated on the 3rd of Adar of 515 BCE, after four years of work.
