B. Swete, The Old Testament in Greek, 19.10.1-10 GREEK: Καὶ εἶπεν Μαρδοχαῖος· Παρὰ τοῦ θεοῦ ἐγένετο ταῦτα. ENGLISH (draft-awaiting-approval): And Mordecai said: These things have come from God. PARALLELS: - [Verbatim] Tosefet le-Esther, פתרון החלום (Tosefet le-Esther (he.wikisource editorial page: Additions to Esther in Hebrew)) — conduit: medieval retranslation. 'ויאמר מרדכי על יד האל נעשו אלה הדברים' directly renders Addition F's opening line; the whole dream-interpretation scene is absent from MT. - [Flagged] Sifrei Aggadah on Esther, Midrash Panim Acherim, Version I 1:6 (Sifrei Aggadah on Esther: Midrash Panim Acherim, Version I) — conduit: lost intermediary. 'After these things' is read as 'after God created the remedy for Israel's wound... he never strikes without first creating the cure' -- the same providential-arrangement verdict as the plus's 'these things have come from God.' - [Flagged] Sifrei Aggadah on Esther, Midrash Panim Acherim, Version II 6:13 (Sifrei Aggadah on Esther: Midrash Panim Acherim, Version II) — conduit: lost intermediary. God 'sees the wound and readies the dressing first' -- Noah before the flood, Moses before the bondage, and here 'before Haman arose, God set up their redeemer' -- the identical theological verdict of providential arrangement as the plus's 'these things have come from God.' - [Motif] Rashi on Megillah 13b:12:3 (Rashi on Bavli Megillah 9a-17a) — conduit: oral. 'God created the remedy before the blow that was to come' is the same providence-precedes-crisis claim Addition F makes: 'these things have come from God ... not one word of it failed.' - [Motif] Rashi on Megillah 15b:20:1 (Rashi on Bavli Megillah 9a-17a) — conduit: oral. 'The sleep of the King of the world' reads the king's sleeplessness as God's own action -- Addition F's claim that 'these things have come from God.' - [Motif] Megillah 15b:20 (Bavli Megillah 9a-17a) — conduit: oral. Rereading 'the king's sleep was disturbed' as God's own agency is a striking theological reversal matching Mordecai's climactic declaration, 'these things have come from God.' - [Motif] Targum Sheni on Esther 9:14:1 (Targum Sheni on Esther) — conduit: Aramaic. Mordecai's gallows speech -- 'you planned evil against Israel, and the Knower of hidden things brought your design up on your own head' -- credits divine causation for the reversal, matching Addition F's 'these things have come from God.' - [Motif] Targum Sheni on Esther 7:10:1 (Targum Sheni on Esther) — conduit: Aramaic. 'They hanged him on the gallows prepared for Mordecai, and the wrath of the King of kings subsided' explicitly credits divine action for the outcome, matching Addition F's 'these things have come from God.'
