Ester 6:10-11

10 Então disse o rei a Hamã: Apressa-te, toma os trajes e o cavalo como disseste, e faze assim para com o judeu Mardoqueu, que está sentado � porta do rei; e não deixes falhar coisa alguma de tudo quanto disseste.
11 Hamã, pois, tomou os trajes e o cavalo e vestiu a Mardoqueu, e o fez andar montado pela praça da cidade, e proclamou diante dele: Assim se faz ao homem a quem o rei se agrada honrar!

Ester 6:10-11 Meaning and Commentary

INTRODUCTION TO ESTHER 6

Ahasuerus, not being able to sleep in the night, ordered the book of records to be brought and read to him, where a fact of Mordecai's was registered, and, upon inquiry, it appeared that nothing had been done to him for it, Es 6:1-3 and Haman being in the outward court, was ordered in, with whom the king consulted what should be done to the man the king delighted to honour; to which Haman gave answer, and was bid to do as he said, Es 6:4-10, which he did, but went home after it confounded and sorrowful, and told his mournful case to his wife and friends, who plainly foresaw his downfall, Es 6:11-14.
