rest, relief — possibly holiday or tax remission
A noun denoting rest or relief, with uncertain specific application in its sole biblical occurrence.

1. sense 1 — Translation evidence shows interpretive diversity: English 'relief,' Spanish 'descanso' (rest), with ancient versions suggesting 'release' (Septuagint) or 'rest' (Vulgate). The Septuagint's 'aphesis' could mean release from taxes or debts. Esther 2:18 describes this as part of the king's celebration when he married Esther, extending some form of favor to all the provinces. 1×
