Mordecai
Esther 2:5
2:5 Mordecai. The name “Mordecai” seems to be derived from the name of Marduk, the chief god of Babylon. His name has been found on a cuneiform tablet, mentioned as a high official at the court of Xerxes. He was most likely the great grandson of a Benjamite named Kish who had been one of the captives taken from Jerusalem in the days of King Jeconiah.
