Description

How Charvonah knits together the two narratives of the Megillah - Mordechai saving Achashverosh and Esther outing Haman at the party - to save the Jews. But how does Charvonah know what he knows, how does he dare to barge in with the information, and why then? Two approaches in Chazal (and Shoshanat Yaakov), which point to to ways to interpret miracles at a moment when miracles are disappearing.
