Esther 6:14 Meaning and Commentary

Esther 6:14

And while they were yet talking with him
About these things, and giving their opinion of the issue of them, upon the present appearance of them:

came the king's chamberlains, and hasted to bring Haman unto the
banquet that Esther had prepared;
the time appointed for it being very near, or quite up, and Haman being backward and dilatory, having no stomach to go to it, and perhaps fearing worse things were coming upon him he should hear of there.

Esther 6:14 In-Context

12 Then Mordekhai returned to the King's Gate; but Haman rushed home with his head covered in mourning.
13 After Haman had told Zeresh his wife and all his friends everything that had happened to him, his advisers and his wife Zeresh said to him, "If Mordekhai, before whom you have begun to fall, is a Jew, you will not get the better of him; on the contrary, your downfall before him is certain."
14 While they were still talking with him, the king's officials came, hurrying to bring Haman to the banquet Ester had prepared.
