They called that party Purim. Haman the Aga-gite, hated the Jews so much he wanted to kill them all on one day. But he wanted to know when it would be the right time to do that. He dropped the Pur stones onto the ground and those stones told him the best time. He used Pur stones and that is why the new party was called Purim. When Queen Esther told King Zerk-sees what Haman wanted to do to her people, Zerk-sees made a new law. That new law said that what Haman wanted to do to all the Jewish people, had to happen to him. And that is why Haman and his sons were put up on poles. When the Jewish people got More-dek-eye's letter they made up their minds to remember what had happened to their people. From that time they promised to have that party called Purim for 2 days every year. They promised to teach their children and all their families that came later on. And they promised to teach all the other people that became Jews too. More-dek-eye wrote in his letter how they should have that party and he said what days they should have it. The Jewish people promised to do what More-dek-eye said in his letter.
