You have never failed me so I direct this question to you my friend.

Esther is credited with saving "her" people by seducing and thwarting Haman in his quest to kill the Persian Jews and she is revered for it.

Delilah did the same with Samson to protect "her" people, the Philistines, from his brutish behavior.

Why is Esther considered a heroine and Delilah a trollop and seductress?

Thanks,

Len
