Esther 2:7

He supported Hadassa, that is Esther his uncle’s daughter, because she had neither father nor mother. And the young woman was beautiful, shapely and pleasing to the eye. When her father and mother died, Mordecai had taken (adopted) her as his own daughter.
[Esther’s Jewish name was Hadassa which means “Myrtle”. It is a plant associated with weddings and is another of the book’s hidden prophetic messages - her very name suggests that she will be a bride. Her Persian name Esther, meaning ‘star’, comes from the same root as the Babylonian love goddess Ishtar’s name. Esther was a cousin of Mordecai.]
