Esther 1:2-5
2In those days King Ahasuerus reigned from his royal throne in the fortress at Susa.
3He held a feast in the third year of his reign for all his officials and staff, the army of Persia and Media, the nobles, and the officials from the provinces.
4He displayed the glorious wealth of his kingdom and the magnificent splendor of his greatness for a total of 180 days.
5At the end of this time, the king held a week-long banquet in the garden courtyard of the royal palace for all the people, from the greatest to the least, who were present in the fortress of Susa.
