The book of Esther is counted as an historical book in our English Bibles, but in the Jewish scriptures it is among the writings.

The book was originally written in Hebrew, but the ancient Greek translation known as the Septuagint (abbreviated LXX) is also a very important witness to the text. The LXX, however, also incorporates several apocryphal additions to the book.
