Ester 8:15 Mordecai left the king's presence wearing royal garments of blue and white, a large crown of gold and a purple robe of fine linen. And the city of Susa held a joyous celebration.
Blue and white - signify Faith and consecration (Sacred). These are the same colors as on the Israeli flag and on the Jewish prayer Shawl.
Numbers15:37-38 Again the L-RD spoke to Moses, saying, "Speak to the children of Israel: Tell them to make tassels on the corners of their garments throughout their generations, and to put a blue thread in the tassels of the corners.
Crown of Gold - symbolizes authority.
Purple is the color of royalty.
This all symbolizes Yeshua Ha Mashiach and his future reign on the throne of David and as the Son of David.
Revelation 14:14 And I looked, and behold a white cloud, and upon the cloud one sat like the Son of man, having on His head a golden crown, and in His hand a sharp sickle.
Ester 8:16 For the Jews it was a time of happiness and joy, gladness and honor.
The Jewish people celebrate this victory to this day on Purim.
Ester 8:17 In every province and in every city, wherever the edict of the king went, there was joy and gladness among the Jews, with feasting and celebrating. And many people of other nationalities became Jews because fear of the Jews had seized them.
Many people of other nationalities - They symbolize those who are not of Jewish ancestry who have accepted Yeshua.
Revelation 5:9-10 And they sang a new song, saying: "You are worthy to take the scroll, And to open its seals; For You were slain, And have redeemed us to G-d by Your blood Out of every tribe and tongue and people and nation, and have made us kings and priests to our G-d; And we will reign on the earth."
Became Jews - They joined the true faith. They became true believers.
So the question is: Are you Jewish? Have you joined the true faith?
Romans 2:28-29 For he is not a Jew who is one outwardly, nor is circumcision that which is outward in the flesh; but he is a Jew who is one inwardly; and circumcision is that of the heart, in the Spirit, not in the letter; whose praise is not from men but from G-d.
Notice these passage are saying that being born Jewish (nationality) does not make you Jewish spiritually.
Has your heart (Leb) been circumcised?
Romans 11:17-26 And if some of the branches were broken off, and you, being a wild olive tree, were grafted in among them, and with them became a partaker of the root and fatness of the olive tree, do not boast against the branches. But if you do boast, remember that you do not support the root, but the root supports you. You will say then, "Branches were broken off that I might be grafted in." Well said. Because of unbelief they were broken off, and you stand by faith. Do not be haughty, but fear. For if G-d did not spare the natural branches, He may not spare you either. Therefore consider the goodness and severity of G-d: on those who fell, severity; but toward you, goodness, if you continue in His goodness. Otherwise you also will be cut off. And they also, if they do not continue in unbelief, will be grafted in, for G-d is able to graft them in again. For if you were cut out of the olive tree which is wild by nature, and were grafted contrary to nature into a cultivated olive tree, how much more will these, who are natural branches, be grafted into their own olive tree? For I do not desire, brethren, that you should be ignorant of this mystery, lest you should be wise in your own opinion, that blindness in part has happened to Israel until the fullness of the Gentiles has come in.
Gentiles believers are called wild branches.
The branches that were broken off are unbelieving Jewish people. These are Jewish people who have not accepted Yeshua as their Messiah.
The wild olive tree that was grafted in are gentiles who have accepted Yeshua as their Messiah. They are told that they should not boast because they have been grafted in. After all G-d did not spare the natural branches (Jewish people) who did not accept Yeshua as their Messiah. He cut them off. He will not spare the Gentile either. Notice it is said that he can graft them (the Jewish person) back in again. �How much more will these, which be the natural branches, be grafted into their own olive tree?�
How can one be grafted in?
Feel free to ask privately.
In Yeshua Ha Mashiach,
