Topic: Persons Of The Bible -- Vashti The name "Vashti" possibly means "thread" in Hebrew, but it is most likely of Persian origin. The name also can be considered to mean "beautiful." Vashti was the queen of Ahasuerus, who was deposed from her royal dignity because she refused to obey the king when he desired her to appear (Esther 1:10-12). The "queen" of Ahasuerus, who, for refusing to show herself to the king's guests at the royal banquet in the banqueting hall of Shushan's palace, was repudiated and deposed. (Esther 1:1).. (B.C. 483.) Many attempts have been made to identify her with historical personages; but it is far more probable that she was only one of the inferior wives, dignified with the title of "queen", whose name has utterly disappeared from history.
