Esther 5:9 - Forerunner Commentary

Esther 5:9

7 Then Esther answered and said, “My petition and request is this:

8 If I have found favor in the sight of the king, and if it pleases the king to grant my petition and¹ fulfill my request, then let the king and Haman come to the ^abanquet which I will prepare for them, and tomorrow I will do as the king has said.”

Haman’s Plot Against Mordecai

9 So Haman went out that day ^ajoyful and with a glad heart; but when Haman saw Mordecai in the king’s gate, and ^bthat he did not stand or tremble before him, he was filled with indignation against Mordecai.

10 Nevertheless Haman ^arestrained himself and went home, and he sent and called for his friends and his wife Zeresh.

11 Then Haman told them of his great riches, ^athe multitude of his children, everything in which the king had promoted him, and how he had ^badvanced him above the officials and servants of the king.
