பற்றி · About

Memucan was one of the seven princes of Persia and Media who served as advisors to King Ahasuerus (Est.1.14). When Queen Vashti refused to appear before the king and his guests during a royal feast, Memucan was the one who advised the king on how to handle the situation (Est.1.16). He suggested that Vashti's behavior could set a precedent for other women in the kingdom to disrespect their husbands. Memucan proposed that the king issue a decree deposing Vashti and selecting a new queen, to serve as an example to all women to honor their husbands (Est.1.16,21). The king followed Memucan's advice, and Vashti was removed from her position as queen (Est.1.21).
