Maybe this should tell you something. More is said about Mordichai
and his activities than is said about MOST of the 12 disciples. Maybe
Mordichai was MORE important.

No. Most were Galileans of completely unknown ethnicity, though

You sure you are reading the same Holy Bible as everyone else?

They had to use a whole book of the Bible to tell what several of the
prophets dealt with in a couple of sentences?

Tragedy?
