Greek Esther 9:17-19
Common English Bible
17 They rested on the fourteenth day of the same month. They spent it as a day of rest, with joy and celebration. 18 The Jews in Susa joined together for self-defense on the fourteenth day and did not rest. But they rested on the fifteenth day with joy and celebration. 19 This is why Jews out in the country celebrate the fourteenth of Adar as a holiday, sending gifts of food to their neighbors, but those who live in the big cities celebrate the fifteenth of Adar as a holiday, sending gifts of food to their neighbors.
