Ester 7:10 Meaning and Commentary

Esther 7:10

So they hanged Haman on the gallows that he had prepared for
Mordecai
Not within his house, ( Esther 7:9 ) , but more probably in his courtyard, in the sight of his family and friends; or, it may be, the gallows was taken from thence, and set up without the city, where he was hanged: for so it is said in the additions of the book of Esther,

``For he that was the worker of these things, is hanged at the gates of Susa with all his family: God, who ruleth all things, speedily rendering vengeance to him according to his deserts.'' (Esther 16:18)

that he was hanged without the gates of Shushan; see ( Psalms 7:15 Psalms 7:16 ) ,

then was the king's wrath pacified;
having inflicted punishment on such a wicked counsellor of his, and the contriver of such mischief.

Ester 7:10 In-Context

8 Und da der König wieder aus dem Garten am Hause in den Saal, da man gegessen hatte, kam, lag Haman an der Bank, darauf Esther saß. Da sprach der König: Will er auch der Königin Gewalt tun bei mir im Hause? Da das Wort aus des Königs Munde ging, verhüllten sie Haman das Antlitz.
9 Und Harbona, der Kämmerer einer vor dem König, sprach: Siehe, es steht ein Baum im Hause Haman, fünfzig Ellen hoch, den er Mardochai gemacht hatte, der Gutes für den König geredet hat. Der König sprach: Laßt ihn daran hängen!
10 Also hängte man Haman an den Baum, den er Mardochai gemacht hatte. Da legte sich des Königs Zorn.
