What’s said in this shiur

The opening of this shiur, in Rabbi Yitzchak Breitowitz’s own words — taken from the captions, so names and Hebrew terms may be approximate.

tightness esther is not mentioned in the gemara at all it is not listed as a day that you have to fast obviously in the megillah itself the jewish people fasted for three days and those three days were actually the 13th the 14th and the 15th and that is when esther went into akhishverosh and haman was killed the next day haman was hung on the second day of pesach and that first year that year of fasting they did not eat matzah on the 15th of they did not eat matzah on the 15th of nisa they were mavato and mitsu de ariza because they were yoshi batainas and that was considered to be pikach and that's why they didn't do this mitzvah people don't realize that a lot of the purim story happened on pesach itself haman was killed was hung on the 16th of nisan and that right that was the day after esther went to achashferas there was a party that day and then there was a party the next day harmon was revealed party the next day harmon was revealed and that's when he was hung and that is why some have a minor that they say shoshana's yakov at lunch of the second day of pesach and some have a kosher peso khamentashan such a such a minuk uh so there certainly is a three-day fast in the book of esther but in terms of making it a permanent fast it's not in the gemara baklal the first mention of a tinus esther is in from the gaainam so chinese esther
