Download or read book Queen Esther of The Median Empire written by Hamma Mirwaisi and published by Hamma Mirwaisi. This book was released on 2020-04-29 with total page 332 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Queen Esther of The Median Empire The Successful Conspiracies by the Lords of the Judaism Religion Since the creation of humanity by God HU the Lord of Dêw (Devas), which is known as Satan or Arabic Shaitan in our lifetime opposed God HU for the creation of humanity. Humanity increased by numbers and so is the followers of Lord Dêw (Devas) too. This book is covering one story about the revenge by followers of Lord Dêw (Devas) against the royal families of Median Empire as the members of the Aryan religion and worshipers of the God HU. Also, the conflict between worshipers of the God HU and Lords of Dêw (Devas) started thousands of years earlier. But in this book, it is safe to say the root of this kind of the Conspiracy goes back to Lord Krishna's Conspiracy of year 3100 BC or BCE. Lord Krishna as the Lord of Deva (Dêw) religion used two groups of cousins, the Kauravas, and Pandavas against one another, for the throne of Hastinapura kingdom, which is also called Kuru kingdom of the white Caucasian people of today India as members of the Mitra and Aryan religions rulers. The Pandavas brothers win the Kurukshetra War and found out about Lord Krishna Conspiracy to use them against one another. The Pandavas brothers declared war on Lord Krishna and his Deva religions followers. Lord Krishna is the forefather of Hebrew Jewish people. The Jewish people are celebrating Purim (Pûrîm) every year in memory of Queen Esther without understanding the derivation of the word ‘Purim’. Based on Hamma Mirwaisi knowledge of ancient Hebrew terms including the word ‘Purim’ this novel will tell the life story of Queen Esther as never before. Since the era of an imaginary character by name of Moses whose Birth and the leader of Exodus 2, in 1486 BC or BCE, Moses Flees into Midian, Exodus 2:11, the Jewish people's histories and the start of writing Hebrew Bible (Tanakh) are under question now. It is clear in our lifetime that the 'Hebrew Bible (Tanakh)' was written under the guidance of the rabbinic committees without the existence of Abraham and Moses as the real persons. The displacement of more than two million white people from Egypt indicating that the descendant of Lord Krishna as God of Deva religions was chased out from Egypt by the revolt of the Black African of Egypt against the white followers of Lord Krishna who invaded Egypt in year 3100 BC or BCE. After Lord Krishna was chased out with his followers from today India by the Members of the Mithraism and Aryan (Zoroastrianism) religions because of the outcome of the Kurukshetra War. Lord Krishna did build 'Temple of Jerusalem' as his headquarter to resist the forces loyal to the Pandava brother and their followers of the white Caucasian people as the members of the Mithraism and the Aryan (Zoroastrianism) religions (the winner of the Kurukshetra War). The rabbinic committees without the existence of Abraham and Moses made up stories of the Hebrew Bible (Tanakh) with the strategic plan to take over the world. This plan by the rabbinic committees to write the original 'Hebrew Bible (Tanakh)' is the first modern Conspiracy plan by the new religion will be known as the Judaism religion by the rabbinic committees to take over the world after their forefather Lord Krishna. The struggle of the so-called Hebrew Jewish people's Lords to take over the world started with the second conspiracies by the Lords of the so-called Judaism religion (Judaism is the first Abrahamic Religions) through Queen Esther (Hadassah) and her cousin 'Mordecai'. The first conspiracies were the made up stories to write the Hebrew Bible (Tanakh). Consequently, this novel of Queen Esther’s pivotal life story will present another perspective of the story of the Jewish people, and their internal struggles to find a way home past exile and genocide attempts by the white Caucasian and Black African people.
