Esther 8:14

They also brought barley and straw for the horses and swift steeds to the place where it should be, each according to the legal judgment for him.

And the couriers went throughout all Israel and Judah with the letters from the hand of the king and his princes, even according to the commandment of the king, saying, “O sons of Israel, return to Yahweh, the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Israel, that He may return to those of you who escaped and remain from the hand of the kings of Assyria.

And letters were sent by the hand of couriers to all the king’s provinces to destroy, to kill, and to cause all the Jews to perish, both young and old, little ones and women, in one day, the thirteenth day of the twelfth month, which is the month Adar, and to plunder their spoil.

A copy of that which was written down to be given as law in every province was revealed to all the peoples so that they should be ready for this day.
