17 On the thirteenth day of the month Adar, and on the fourteenth day of the same, rested they▪ and made it a day of feasting and gladness.
This belongs not to the Feast, but to the work done before it. The meaning is, This they did, i. e. they slew their Foes, as was now said, [illegible: 1+ letters]. 16. upon the 13th day.
Marginal references: Heb. [illegible: 1 word] [illegible: 1 word].
