Esther 6:10-11

10 Alors le roi dit à Haman: Hâte-toi, prends le vêtement et le cheval, comme tu l'as dit, et fais ainsi à Mardochée, le Juif, qui est assis à la porte du roi; n'omets rien de tout ce que tu as dit.

11 Haman prit donc le vêtement et le cheval; il revêtit Mardochée, et le fit aller à cheval par les rues de la ville, et il criait devant lui: C'est ainsi qu'on fait à l'homme que le roi veut honorer!

Esther 6:10-11 Meaning and Commentary

INTRODUCTION TO ESTHER 6

Ahasuerus, not being able to sleep in the night, ordered the book of records to be brought and read to him, where a fact of Mordecai's was registered, and, upon inquiry, it appeared that nothing had been done to him for it, Es 6:1-3 and Haman being in the outward court, was ordered in, with whom the king consulted what should be done to the man the king delighted to honour; to which Haman gave answer, and was bid to do as he said, Es 6:4-10, which he did, but went home after it confounded and sorrowful, and told his mournful case to his wife and friends, who plainly foresaw his downfall, Es 6:11-14.
