What Is the Jewish Celebration of Purim? A Festival of Hidden Miracles
The Purim feast comes from the Book of Esther, where the Jewish people faced total annihilation at the hands of Haman, a wicked advisor to King Ahasuerus (Xerxes). But through a miraculous series of events, Esther—a Jewish woman who had become queen—risked her life to save her people.
Despite the fact that God’s name is never mentioned in the entire Book of Esther, His presence is unmistakable. Every detail, every twist, every moment reveals God’s hidden hand working behind the scenes.
This teaches us something profound—even when God seems silent, He is still in control!
📖 Isaiah 45:15 – “Truly, You are a God who hides Himself, O God of Israel, the Savior!”
But why does this matter today? Could Purim actually be revealing something greater than the events in Esther’s time?
Esther and Yeshua: The Hidden Deliverers
The story of Esther is filled with hidden truths—and one of the most striking is how Esther’s story mirrors the mission of Yeshua (Jesus)!
➡ Esther concealed her identity as a Jew until the appointed time of deliverance.
➡ Yeshua often concealed His identity as the Messiah, revealing it only to those who had ears to hear.
📖 Matthew 13:10-11 – “The disciples came to Him and asked, ‘Why do You speak to the people in parables?’ He replied, ‘Because the knowledge of the secrets of the kingdom of heaven has been given to you, but not to them.’”
At the right moment, Esther revealed who she truly was to save her people. Likewise, at the right time, Yeshua revealed His mission—to bring salvation not just to Israel, but to the whole world!
📖 John 10:17-18 – “The reason My Father loves Me is that I lay down My life—only to take it up again. No one takes it from Me, but I lay it down of My own accord.”
Esther saved her people by risking her life.
Yeshua saved the world by giving His life.
The Jewish celebration of Purim is a powerful reminder that God raises up deliverers in unexpected ways—and Yeshua is the greatest deliverer of all!
The Purim Feast and the Messianic Banquet: A Prophetic Picture
One of the central commandments of Purim is the Seudat Purim—the festive meal where families gather to celebrate their deliverance with joy and thanksgiving.
But did you know that the Purim feast is a prophetic shadow of a far greater feast that is yet to come?
📖 Isaiah 25:6 – “On this mountain, the LORD Almighty will prepare a feast of rich food for all peoples, a banquet of aged wine—the best of meats and the finest of wines.”
This future banquet will take place in the Messianic Kingdom, where Yeshua will reign as King! He even spoke of this coming feast:
📖 Matthew 8:11 – “I say to you that many will come from the east and the west, and will take their places at the feast with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob in the kingdom of heaven.”
Just as Purim celebrates victory over the enemy and the survival of God’s people, the Messianic banquet will be the final celebration of God’s ultimate victory over sin, death, and evil!
The Great Reversal: Purim’s Hidden Prophecy of Redemption
Purim is a story of divine reversal—Haman sought to destroy the Jewish people, but in the end, he was destroyed on the very gallows he prepared for Mordecai.
This pattern of unexpected victory is found throughout the Bible. Yeshua also spoke of the greatest reversal in history:
📖 Matthew 19:30 – “But many who are first will be last, and many who are last will be first.”
And just as Haman was executed on the very device he built to kill Mordecai, the forces of evil were defeated in an unexpected way—through the cross!
Satan thought he had won when Yeshua was crucified. But instead, that very act of death became the key to salvation for all mankind!
📖 Psalm 30:11 – “You turned my mourning into dancing; You removed my sackcloth and clothed me with joy.”
The Jewish celebration of Purim reminds us that no matter how dark things seem, God always has the final victory!
Purim’s Call to Action: Will You Stand Like Esther?
Purim is not just a historical event—it is a call to action! Just as Esther was placed in the palace “for such a time as this” (Esther 4:14), each of us has been placed in this world for a purpose.
📖 Matthew 10:32 – “Whoever acknowledges Me before others, I will also acknowledge before My Father in heaven.”
Are you willing to be bold like Esther and stand for truth?
The Purim feast is more than a holiday—it is a prophetic rehearsal of God’s final redemption!
The Future Purim Feast: A Celebration That Will Never End
While Purim celebrates a past deliverance, it also points forward to a greater, final deliverance when Yeshua returns as King!
📖 Zechariah 14:9 – “And the LORD will be King over all the earth; on that day the LORD will be one and His name one.”
On that day, the greatest Purim feast will take place—not just for the Jewish people, but for all who belong to the Messiah!
📖 Matthew 24:30 – “Then will appear the sign of the Son of Man in heaven... and all peoples of the earth will mourn when they see the Son of Man coming on the clouds of heaven, with power and great glory.”
Just as Purim celebrates the overthrow of Haman, the final Purim feast will celebrate the defeat of all evil when Yeshua reigns forever!
