Esther10

King Ahasuerus imposed a tribute throughout his vast empire, including the islands of the sea. The chapter notes that the details of his power and Mordecai's elevated status are recorded in the chronicles of Media and Persia. Mordecai, being second only to the king, was highly esteemed among the Jews, diligently working for their welfare and promoting peace for his people.

The King’s Authority Confirmed

1
And the king Ahasuerus setteth a tribute on the land and the isles of the sea;
2
and all the work of his strength, and his might, and the explanation of the greatness of Mordecai with which the king made him great, are they not written on the book of the Chronicles of Media and Persia?
3
For Mordecai the Jew is second to king Ahasuerus, and a great man of the Jews, and accepted of the multitude of his brethren, seeking good for his people, and speaking peace to all his seed.
