EDIT: sure there are greater interior the Apocrypha: Judith, Additions to Esther, and Susanna. on a similar time as the Apocypha isn't area of THE Bible fopr Protestants, it continues to be utilized by ability of the Roman Catholics and talked approximately by ability of pupils

Esther's mother was Abihail ....based on Esther 2:15.
Her father is not mentionned.
She was considered an orphan girl, so her mother must have 'placed' her.
The prince was Haman, I believe

She was a Jewess of the tribe of Benjamin, daughter of Abihail, and bore before her accession to the throne the name of Hádássah (Edissa, meaning myrtle).
Her family had been deported from Jerusalem to Babylon in the time of Jechonias (599 B.C.). On the death of her parents she was adopted by her father's brother, Mordecai or Mardochai, who then dwelt in Susan, the capital of Persia... he guided her and became a gatekeeper for the king to stay close to Esther.

I just read that chapter the other day and no they didnt name her parents. I dont recall anyone not liking her, but I could be mistaken. I do remember her playing a part in Haman getting hung

No, her parent's names are not mentioned. She was orphaned at a young age and adpoted by her cousin Mordecai. Her Hebrew name was Hadassah, her Persian name was Esther

She was raised by her uncle/coousin Mordecai. I don't think it mentions the name of her parents anywhere. I think the guy you are talking about is Haman, that didn't like Moredecai her uncle and try to get all the Jews killed.

There's no record of her parents' names - she was an orphan. Her uncle was called Mordechai. The person who didn't like her was haman. He wasn't a prince, he was a vizier.

They are not mentioned. Haman was his name.
