A beautiful Jewish orphan named Esther marries a powerful king of Persia.

Reviews
Queen Esther
It was very well done. I have had a VHS copy of it for years and it has told the complete story from the Bible of Esther...with a little humor also. Has been enjoyed by all ages from children to senior citizens. Am now looking for a DVD.
