Elevation of Mordochai and Disgrace of Haman - Est 6:1-14 The next night the king, being unable to sleep, caused the chronicles of the kingdom to be read to him. The account of the conspiracy discovered by Mordochai, which was written therein, was thus brought before him, and he inquired of his servants whether this man had been rewarded (Est 6:1-3). On receiving a negative answer, the king sent to inquire who was in the court; and Haman being found there thus early, he had him summoned, and asked him: what should be done to the man in whose honour the king delighteth. Haman, supposing that the king could intend to honour no one but himself, voted for the very highest public mark of respect (Est 6:3-9), and was then obliged at the king's command to pay the proposed honour to Mordochai (Est 6:10, Est 6:11). From this humiliation his wife and friends prognosticated his speedy downfall (Est 6:12-14).

Haman is so impatient to get Mordecai hanged that he comes early to court, to be ready at the king's levee, before any other business is brought before him, to get a warrant for his execution (Est 6:4), which he makes sure that he shall have at the first word. The king would gratify him in a greater thing than that; and he could tell the king that he was so confident of the justice of his request, and the king's favour to him in it, that he had got the gallows ready: one word from the king would complete his satisfaction. II. The king is so impatient to have Mordecai honoured that he sends to know who is in the court that is fit to be employed in it. Word is brought him that Haman is in the court, Est 6:5. Let him come in, says the king, the fittest man to be made use of both in directing and in dispensing the king's favour; and the king knew nothing of any quarrel he had with Mordecai. Haman is brought in immediately, proud of the honour done him in being admitted into the king's bed-chamber, as it should seem, before he was up; for let the king but give orders for the dignifying of Mordecai, and he will be easy in his mind and try to sleep. Now Haman thinks he has the fairest opportunity he can wish for to solicit against Mordecai; but the king's heart is as full as his, and it is fit he should speak first. III. The king asks Haman how he should express his favour to one whom he had marked for a favourite: What shall be done to the man whom the king delights to honour? Est 6:6. Note, It is a good property in kings, and other superiors, to delight in bestowing rewards and not to delight in punishing. Parents and masters should take a pleasure in commending and encouraging that which is good in those under their charge. IV…
افتح المصدر ↗6:4-6 Just as the king was pondering what to do to honor Mordecai, Haman arrived to seek Mordecai’s death. With great irony, the narrator recounts the king’s consulting with him about how to reward Mordecai.

فَقَالَتْ لَهُ زَرَشُ زَوْجَتُهُ وَكُلُّ أَحِبَّائِهِ: «فَلْيَعْمَلُوا خَشَبَةً ارْتِفَاعُهَا خَمْسُونَ ذِرَاعًا، وَفِي الصَّبَاحِ قُلْ لِلْمَلِكِ أَنْ يَصْلِبُوا مُرْدَخَايَ عَلَيْهَا، ثُمَّ ادْخُلْ مَعَ الْمَلِكِ إِلَى الْوَلِيمَةِ فَرِحًا». فَحَسُنَ الْكَلاَمُ عِنْدَ هَامَانَ وَعَمِلَ الْخَشَبَةَ.
«إِنَّ كُلَّ عَبِيدِ الْمَلِكِ وَشُعُوبِ بِلاَدِ الْمَلِكِ يَعْلَمُونَ أَنَّ كُلَّ رَجُل دَخَلَ أَوِ امْرَأَةٍ إِلَى الْمَلِكِ، إِلَى الدَّارِ الدَّاخِلِيَّةِ وَلَمْ يُدْعَ، فَشَرِيعَتُهُ وَاحِدَةٌ أَنْ يُقْتَلَ، إِلاَّ الَّذِي يَمُدُّ لَهُ الْمَلِكُ قَضِيبَ الذَّهَبِ فَإِنَّهُ يَحْيَا. وَأَنَا لَمْ أُدْعَ لأَدْخُلَ إِلَى الْمَلِكِ هذِهِ الثَّلاَثِينَ يَوْمًا».
وَفِي الْيَوْمِ الثَّالِثِ لَبِسَتْ أَسْتِيرُ ثِيَابًا مَلَكِيَّةً وَوَقَفَتْ فِي دَارِ بَيْتِ الْمَلِكِ الدَّاخِلِيَّةِ مُقَابَِلَ بَيْتِ الْمَلِكِ، وَالْمَلِكُ جَالِسٌ عَلَى كُرْسِيِّ مُلْكِهِ فِي بَيْتِ الْمُلْكِ مُقَابَِلَ مَدْخَلِ الْبَيْتِ.
اَلسَّاكِنُ فِي السَّمَاوَاتِ يَضْحَكُ. الرَّبُّ يَسْتَهْزِئُ بِهِمْ.
فَقَالَ حَرْبُونَا، وَاحِدٌ مِنَ الْخِصْيَانِ الَّذِينَ بَيْنَ يَدَيِ الْمَلِكِ: «هُوَذَا الْخَشَبَةُ أَيْضًا الَّتِي عَمِلَهَا هَامَانُ لِمُرْدَخَايَ الَّذِي تَكَلَّمَ بِالْخَيْرِ نَحْوَ الْمَلِكِ قَائِمَةٌ فِي بَيْتِ هَامَانَ، ارْتِفَاعُهَا خَمْسُونَ ذِرَاعًا». فَقَالَ الْمَلِكُ: «اصْلِبُوهُ عَلَيْهَا».
لِيُنَجِّيَ مِنَ الْمَوْتِ أَنْفُسَهُمْ، وَلِيَسْتَحْيِيَهُمْ فِي الْجُوعِ.
الآخِذِ الْحُكَمَاءَ بِحِيلَتِهِمْ، فَتَتَهَوَّرُ مَشُورَةُ الْمَاكِرِينَ.
كُلُّ مَا تَجِدُهُ يَدُكَ لِتَفْعَلَهُ فَافْعَلْهُ بِقُوَّتِكَ، لأَنَّهُ لَيْسَ مِنْ عَمَل وَلاَ اخْتِرَاعٍ وَلاَ مَعْرِفَةٍ وَلاَ حِكْمَةٍ فِي الْهَاوِيَةِ الَّتِي أَنْتَ ذَاهِبٌ إِلَيْهَا.
