Then the king held out the golden sceptre towards Esther
As a token that she had not incurred his displeasure by coming into his presence without leave, and that she was admitted to speak and make her request; see ( Esther 5:3 )
so Esther arose and stood before the king;
she rose from the ground on which she lay prostrate, and stood upon her feet, in an humble manner, to make her speech, and present her petition to the king.
