Esther 9:26-27
26 Wherefore they called these days (yamim) PURIM [פורים] after the shem (name) of the PUR [פור]. Therefore for all the words of this iggeret (letter), and of that which they had seen concerning this matter, and which had happened unto them,
27 The Yehudi (the Jews) established, and took upon them, and upon their zero (seed), and upon all such as JOINED THEMSELVES UNTO THEM [ועל כל-הנלוים עליהם], so as it should not fail, that they would keep these two days according to their writing, and according to their appointed time shank v’shanah (every year);
What does the word "JOINED THEMSELVES UNTO THEM [ועל כל-הנלוים עליהם]" mean?
Rashi says:
"These were the proselytes who were destined to convert."
