Haman's Downfall and Ruin - Est 7:1-10 At this second banquet the king again inquired of the queen what was her petition, when she entreated that her life and that of her people might be spared, for that she and her people were sold to destruction (Est 7:1-4). The king, evidently shocked at such a petition, asked who was the originator of so evil a deed, and Esther named the wicked Haman as the enemy (Est 7:5, Est 7:6). Full of indignation at such a crime, the king rose from the banquet and went into the garden; Haman then fell down before the queen to entreat for his life. When the king returned to the house, he saw Haman lying on the couch on which Esther was sitting, and thinking that he was offering violence to the queen, he passed sentence of death upon him, and caused him to be hanged on the tree he had erected for Mordochai (Est 7:7-10).
افتح المصدر ↗We are now to attend the second banquet to which the king and Haman were invited: and there, I. Esther presents her petition to the king for her life and the life of her people (Est 7:1-4). II. She plainly tells the king that Haman is the man who designed her ruin and the ruin of all her friends (Est 7:5, Est 7:6). III. The king thereupon gave orders for the hanging of Haman upon the gallows that he had prepared for Mordecai, which was done accordingly (Est 7:7-10). And thus, by the destruction of the plotter, a good step was taken towards the defeating of the plot.
افتح المصدر ↗7:8 he fell on the couch where Queen Esther was reclining: A major mistake, for no one should touch the queen, much less be on the same couch with her. • Will he even assault the queen . . . before my very eyes? This exaggerated rhetorical question implicates Haman with the worst possible motives.

وَرَجَعَ مُرْدَخَايُ إِلَى بَابِ الْمَلِكِ. وَأَمَّا هَامَانُ فَأَسْرَعَ إِلَى بَيْتِهِ نَائِحًا وَمُغَطَّى الرَّأْسِ.
هُوَذَا الرَّبُّ يَطْرَحُكَ طَرْحًا يَا رَجُلُ، وَيُغَطِّيكَ تَغْطِيَةً.
