Esther 2:23 - Forerunner Commentary

Esther 2:23

21 In those days, while Mordecai sat within the king’s gate, two of the king’s eunuchs,¹ Bigthan and Teresh, doorkeepers, became furious and sought to lay hands on King Ahasuerus.

22 So the matter became known to Mordecai, ^awho told Queen Esther, and Esther informed the king in Mordecai’s name.

23 And when an inquiry was made into the matter, it was confirmed, and both were hanged on a gallows; and it was written in ^athe book of the chronicles in the presence of the king.
