亚哈随鲁和末底改的功绩
1 亚哈随鲁王使旱地和海岛的人民都进贡。
2 他以权柄能力所行的，并他抬举末底改使他高升的事，岂不都写在米底亚和波斯王的历史上吗？
3 犹大人末底改作亚哈随鲁王的宰相，在犹大人中为大，得他众弟兄的喜悦，为本族的人求好处，向他们说和平的话。

To read the Bible and not to meditate was seen as an unfruitful exercise: better to read one chapter and meditate afterward then to read several chapters and not to meditate. Likewise to meditate and not to pray was like preparing to run a race and never leaving the starting line. The three duties of reading Scripture, meditation, and prayer belonged together, and though each could be done occasionally on its own, as formal duties to God they were best done together (Peter Toon).
