Secretary of State Mike Pompeo said during an interview that President Trump may have been sent by God to help save Jewish people from Iran.

Pompeo told the Christian Broadcasting Network on Thursday that it’s “possible” President Trump was raised to defend the Jewish people, just like Queen Esther from the Bible.

“Could it be that President Trump right now has been sort of raised for such a time as this, just like Queens Esther, to help save the Jewish people from the Iranian menace?” CBN asked the US secretary of state.

Pompeo, who was visiting Israel, replied: “As a Christian, I certainly believe that’s possible.”

The interview fell on Purim, a Jewish holiday that honors the saving of Jewish people from Haman.

The story of Queen Esther, who became Queen of Persia in 478 B.C., is recounted in the Old Testament.
