Ester 8:3 Meaning and Commentary

Esther 8:3

And Esther spake yet again before the king
Went into his presence, without being called for as before, with a new petition:

and fell down at his feet, and besought him with tears;
the more to work upon his affections, and move him to grant her request; which she might be the more encouraged to hope for, through the success she already had:

to put away the mischief of Haman the Agagite, and his device that he
had devised against the Jews;
to revoke, abolish, and make void a mischievous scheme Haman had devised against the Jews, to root out the whole nation of them in the Persian empire.

Ester 8:3 In-Context

1 Ese mismo d铆a el rey Asuero le dio a la reina Ester las propiedades de Am谩n, el enemigo de los jud铆os. Mardoqueo se present贸 ante el rey, porque Ester le hab铆a dicho cu谩l era su parentesco con ella.
2 El rey se quit贸 el anillo con su sello, el cual hab铆a recuperado de Am谩n, y se lo obsequi贸 a Mardoqueo. Ester, por su parte, lo design贸 administrador de las propiedades de Am谩n.
3 Luego Ester volvi贸 a interceder ante el rey. Se ech贸 a sus pies y, con l谩grimas en los ojos, le suplic贸 que pusiera fin al malvado plan que Am谩n el agagueo hab铆a maquinado contra los jud铆os.
4 El rey le extendi贸 a Ester el cetro de oro. Entonces ella se levant贸 y, permaneciendo de pie ante 茅l,
5 dijo:鈥擲i me he ganado el favor de Su Majestad, y si piensa que es correcto hacerlo y est谩 contento conmigo, d铆gnese dar una contraorden que invalide los decretos para aniquilar a los jud铆os que est谩n en todas las provincias del reino, los cuales fragu贸 y escribi贸 Am谩n hijo de Hamedata, el agagueo.
