The Triumph of Mordecai by Pieter Lastman, 1624. Mordecai (/ ˈ m ɔːr d ɪ k aɪ, m ɔːr d ɪ ˈ k eɪ aɪ /; [1] also Mordechai; Hebrew: מָרְדֳּכַי, Modern: Mŏrdoḵay, Tiberian: Mārdoḵay, [a] IPA: [moʁdeˈχaj]) is one of the main personalities in the Book of Esther in the Hebrew Bible.
I've moved Mordechai to Mordecai. Mordecai is the standard Bible English rendition of the name, Mordechai is merely one of many phonetic spellings of the Hebrew pronunciation.

As a consequence, its pronunciation was strongly influenced by the vernacular of individual Jewish communities. With the revival of Hebrew as a native language, and especially with the establishment of Israel, the pronunciation of the modern language rapidly coalesced. The two main accents of modern Hebrew are Oriental and Non-Oriental. [2]
