Old Testament book that tells of a beautiful Jewish woman (6)

I believe the answer is:

esther

(Other definitions for esther that I've seen before include "Old Testament queen" , "Holy Book" , "Section of Bible" , "Oratorio by Handel; girl's name" , "Beautiful lady" .)

I've seen this clue in The Irish Times.
