Esther 5:10 Meaning and Commentary

Esther 5:10

Nevertheless Haman refrained himself
From showing any outward resentment to Mordecai, from laying hands upon him or taking revenge on him, as being too much below him to avenge himself on a single person, when the whole body of the people Mordecai belonged to would shortly feel the power of his hand for such insolent treatment of him:

and when he came home, he sent and called for his friends, and Zeresh
his wife;
who, the Targum says, was the daughter of Tatnai, the governor on the other side the river, ( Ezra 5:3 ) .
