Fristående översättning av de första meningarna:
Detta är en åminnelse av historien i Esteirs bok (den heter egentligen Hadasah; Helleniserat till 'Esther').
Parashah'n är Sh'mot - 2 Mosebok 17:8-16 (och, på kvällen, reciteringen av Esteir's bok).
This is the commemoration of the story in the book of Esteir (actually Hadasah; corrupted to 'Esther').
Today, Jews (only) offer a symbolic annual half-Shëqël before Minkhâh and the reading of the Mәgilâh at Purim. Outside of Israel, the local half-coin is offered (half-dollar, etc.) with the proceeds going to the poor.
During the recitation of Esteir, unlike other communities of Orthodox Jews, the Tei•mân•im′ don't make noise after the name Hâ•mân′ (not "HEY-men"). Also, the congregation repeats aloud, after the reader, the following pәsuqim after the reader: 2.5; 7.10; 8.15-16 & 10.3. (Reading a translation does not satisfy themi•tzәw•âh′ .)
The custom of מִשְׁלוֹחַ מָנוֹת has continued among Yәhud•im′ since Ës•teir′ 9.19,22. The Nәtzâr•im′ , and increasingly Orthodox rabbis, recommend providingמשלוח מנות to poor, hospitalized, shut-in and elderly Jews rather than swapping sweets with one's usual Jewish friends and neighbors. Check with local senior homes, hospitals and the Jewish Community Center (JCC) for rarely-visited or unemployed Jewish residents and bring them a kâ•sheir′ (or none at all!) משלוח מנות. Work with the JCC.
All of the children, and many adults, come in costumes. In our Beit ha-Kәnës′ ët, there's a party for the children immediately after the recitation ofËsteir and another party, later in the evening, for the adults. (See Yâeil's Pur•im′ 2000 costume, click to enlarge.)
Hâ•mân′ was an Iranian (Persian) Prime Minister! Why not refer to today's Iranian president as "Hâ•mân′ -dinejad" [Citat
