EXILED HEBREWS AND THE WEEPING WILLOW TREE
I enjoy your commentaries Tractorman. It seems Esther has historic relevance more than spiritual relevance. Just my opinion.
The weeping willow tree has a Jewish legend to it. The tree’s Latin name is called “Salix babylonica”.
There is a Jewish legend that its boughs first drooped under the weight of the harps, as the exiled Hebrews sang: “By the waters of Babylon we sat down and wept when we remembered thee, O Sion! As for our harps, we hanged them up upon the willow-trees that are therein.”
BABYLONIAN TALMUD
The Babylonian captivity shaped the Jews into what they are today. Today the Jews use the Babylonian Talmud as their scriptural authority.
