TSK · Esther 2:16

Esther Becomes Queen in Vashti’s Place When these things had been accomplished and the rage of King Ahasuerus had diminished, he remembered Vashti and what she had done and what had been decided against her.

The king’s scribes were quickly summoned– in the third month(that is, the month of Sivan), on the twenty-third day.
