In the fourth year of the reign of Ptolemeus and Cleopatra,
Dositheus, who said he was a priest and Levite, and Ptolemeus
his son, brought this epistle of Phurim, which they said was the
same, and that Lysimachus the son of Ptolemeus, that was in
Jerusalem, had interpreted it.

AddEsth 11:2
In the second year of the reign of Artexerxes the great, in
the first day of the month Nisan, Mardocheus the son of Jairus,
the son of Semei, the son of Cisai, of the tribe of Benjamin,
had a dream;

AddEsth 11:3
Who was a Jew, and dwelt in the city of Susa, a great man,
being a servitor in the king's court.

AddEsth 11:4
He was also one of the captives, which Nabuchodonosor the

and uproar in the land:

AddEsth 11:6
And, behold, two great dragons came forth ready to fight, and
their cry was great.

And at their cry all nations were prepared to battle, that
they might fight against the righteous people.

And lo a day of darkness and obscurity, tribulation and
anguish, affliction and great uproar, upon earth.

own evils, and were ready to perish.

Then they cried unto God, and upon their cry, as it were from
a little fountain, was made a great flood, even much water.

The light and the sun rose up, and the lowly were exalted,
and devoured the glorious.

AddEsth 11:12
Now when Mardocheus, who had seen this dream, and what God
had determined to do, was awake, he bare this dream in mind, and
until night by all means was desirous to know it.
