Esther 6:9

9 And let this levush and sus be delivered to the hand of one of the most noble sarim (princes) of HaMelech, that they may array the ish therewith whom HaMelech delighteth to show yekar [see 1:4,20;6:3,6], and bring him on horseback through the rechov of the ir, and proclaim before him, Thus shall it be done to the ish whom HaMelech delighteth to show yekar.

Esther 6:9 Meaning and Commentary

Esther 6:9

And let this apparel and horse be delivered to the hand of one
of the king's most noble princes
The one,

that they may array the man withal whom the king delighteth to honour;
and the other to be led in state before him:

and bring him on horseback through the street of the city;
on another horse, that all might see what honour was done him:

and proclaim before him;
as before Joseph, when advanced next to Pharaoh, ( Genesis 41:43 ) this was not to be done by an herald, but by a nobleman, to whom the apparel and horse were to be delivered, and was done by Haman, ( Esther 6:11 ) ,

thus shall it be done to the man whom the king delighteth to honour;
these were the words said in the proclamation, signifying this was the man the king delighted to honour, and this the manner in which he would have it done.

Esther 6:9 In-Context

7 And Haman answered HaMelech, For the ish HaMelech delighteth to show yekar (honor)

8 Let the levush malkhut (royal robe, clothing) be brought which HaMelech has worn, and the sus (horse) that HaMelech rideth upon, and the keter malkhut (royal crown, crest) which is set upon its head,

9 And let this levush and sus be delivered to the hand of one of the most noble sarim (princes) of HaMelech, that they may array the ish therewith whom HaMelech delighteth to show yekar [see 1:4,20;6:3,6], and bring him on horseback through the rechov of the ir, and proclaim before him, Thus shall it be done to the ish whom HaMelech delighteth to show yekar.

10 Then HaMelech said to Haman, Make haste, and take the levush and the sus, as thou hast said, and do even so to Mordechai HaYehudi, that sitteth at the Sha’ar HaMelech; leave nothing undone of all that thou hast spoken.

11 Then took Haman the levush and the sus, and arrayed Mordechai, and brought him on horseback through the rechov of the ir, and proclaimed before him, Thus shall it be done unto the ish whom HaMelech delighteth to show yekar.
