According to the Book of Esther, Haman, royal vizier to King Ahasuerus planned to kill all the Jews in the empire, but his plans were foiled by Mordecai and his adopted daughter Esther who had risen to become Queen of Persia. The day of deliverance became a day of feasting and rejoicing. The holiday is celebrated in synagogues around the world by dressing in costume and performing a funny play, Shpiel, that tells the story of Purim.
