! Haman's Decree (357 BCE)
In the 12th year of his reign (357
BCE), King Achashverosh of
Persia endorsed Haman's plan "to destroy, kill and
annihilate all Jews, from young to old, infants and
women, on a single day, on the 13th day of the
12th month, the month of Adar."
On Nissan 13 (11 months before the date chosen for the
massacre) proclamations of the decree were drafted and
dispatched to all 127 countries of the Persian Empire. Mordechai told Esther to go before the king and plead for her
people. Esther asked that a three-day fast be proclaimed
(Nissan 14, 15 and 16--including the first two days of
Passover) in which all Jews would repent and pray for
the success of her mission.

Parameters for a Joint Comprehensive Plan
of Action Regarding the
Islamic Republic of Iran's Nuclear Program
“Below are the key parameters of a Joint
Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA) regarding the Islamic
Republic of Iran’s nuclear program that were decided in
Lausanne, Switzerland. These elements form the foundation
upon which the final text of the JCPOA will be written
between now and June 30, and reflect the significant
progress that has been made in discussions between the
P5+1, the European Union, and Iran. Important
implementation details are still subject to negotiation,
and nothing is agreed until everything is agreed. We will
work to conclude the JCPOA based on these parameters over
the coming months….”

Draft accords of sanctions relief at Iran
nuke talks in hand
VIENNA (AP) — World powers and Iran have
drawn up a draft document on the pace and timing of
sanctions relief for the Islamic republic in exchange
for curbs on Iran's nuclear program, advancing on one of
the most contentious issues at their negotiations,
diplomats told The Associated Press on Saturday.
Written by technical experts, the document
still must be approved by senior officials of the seven nations at the table, including U.S. Secretary of State John
Kerry, Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif and
the foreign ministers of the five other countries expected
to join Kerry and Zarif in Vienna this weekend for a push
to meet a July 7 deadline.
The development indicated the sides were
moving closer to a comprehensive accord that would set a
decade of restrictions on Tehran's nuclear program in
exchange for tens of billions of dollars in economic
benefits for the Iranians. ….

The World Heritage Committee this morning approved the inscription of six cultural
sites on World Heritage List: Tusi Sites (China), Susa, Cultural Landscape of Maymand (both in
the Islamic Republic of Iran), Singapore Botanic
Gardens (Singapore), Baekje Historic Areas (Republic of
Korea), Great Burkhan Khaldun Mountain and its surrounding
sacred landscape (Mongolia).
Susa (Islamic Republic of Iran) — Located in the south-west of Iran, in the
lower Zagros Mountains, the property encompasses a group
of archaeological mounds rising on the eastern side of the
Shavur River, as well as Ardeshir’s palace, on the
opposite bank of the river. The excavated architectural
monuments include administrative, residential and palatial
structures. Susa contains several layers of superimposed
urban settlements in a continuous succession from the late
5th millennium BCE until the 13th
century CE. The site bears exceptional testimony to the
Elamite, Persian and Parthian cultural traditions, which
have largely disappeared.
Susa, … inscribed to UNESCO’s World Heritage

And I saw in a vision; and it came to
pass, when I saw, that I was at Shushan
in the palace, which is in the
province of Elam; and I saw in a vision, and I was
by the river of Ulai. |
Daniel 8, 1 In the third year of the reign of
king Belshazzar a vision appeared unto me, even unto me
Daniel, after that which appeared unto me at the first.
2 And I saw in a vision; and it came to pass, when I
saw, that I was at Shushan in the palace, which is in
the province of Elam; and I saw in a vision, and I was
by the river of Ulai. 3 Then I lifted up mine eyes, and
saw, and, behold, there stood before the river a ram
which had two horns: and the two horns were high; but
one was higher than the other, and the higher came up
last. 4 I saw the ram pushing westward, and northward,
and southward; so that no beasts might stand before him,
neither was there any that could deliver out of his
hand; but he did according to his will, and became
great.
5 And as I was considering, behold, an he
goat came from the west on the face of the whole earth,
and touched not the ground: and the goat had a notable
horn between his eyes. 6 And he came to the ram that had
two horns, which I had seen standing before the river,
and ran unto him in the fury of his power. 7 And I saw
him come close unto the ram, and he was moved with
choler against him, and smote the ram, and brake his two
horns: and there was no power in the ram to stand before
him, but he cast him down to the ground, and stamped
upon him: and there was none that could deliver the ram
out of his hand. 8 Therefore the he goat waxed very
great: and when he was strong, the great horn was
broken; and for it came up four notable ones toward the
four winds of heaven. … http://biblehub.com/kjv/m/daniel/8.htm
