On the third day - Most probably the third day of the fast which she has prescribed to Mordecai and the Jews.
Відкрити джерело ↗ESTHER INVITES THE KING AND HAMAN TO A BANQUET. (Est 5:1-14) Esther put on her royal apparel--It was not only natural, but, on such occasions, highly proper and expedient, that the queen should decorate herself in a style becoming her exalted station. On ordinary occasions she might reasonably set off her charms to as much advantage as possible; but, on the present occasion, as she was desirous to secure the favor of one who sustained the twofold character of her husband and her sovereign, public as well as private considerations--a regard to her personal safety, no less than the preservation of her doomed countrymen--urged upon her the propriety of using every legitimate means of recommending herself to the favorable notice of Ahasuerus. the king sat upon his royal throne in the royal house, over against the gate of the house--The palace of this Persian king seems to have been built, like many more of the same quality and description, with an advanced cloister, over against the gate, made in the fashion of a large penthouse, supported only by one or two contiguous pillars in the front, or else in the center. In such open structures as these, in the midst of their guards and counsellors, are the bashaws, kadis, and other great officers, accustomed to distribute justice, and transact the public affairs of the provinces [SHAW, Travels]. In such a situation the Persian king was seated. The seat he occupied was not a throne, according to our ideas of one, but simply a chair, and so high that it required a footstool. It was made of gold, or, at least, inlaid with that metal, and covered with splendid tapestry, and no one save the king might sit down on it under pain of death. It is often found pictured on the Persepolitan monuments, and always of the same fashion.

Of the fast; though the former Targum paraphrases it the third day of the passover, the sixteenth of Nisan; see Gill on Est 4:17, though it is probable this was nearer the time fixed for the destruction of the Jews, see Est 8:9, yet the Jews have fixed the fast of Esther on that very day, the thirteenth of Adar (f): that Esther put on her royal apparel; in order to go in to the king, and appear before him; which to do in a mournful habit, such as she had on when fasting, was not proper; for then she put off her royal crown, as is intimated in the additions to the book of Esther,And upon the third day, when she had ended her prayers, she laid away her mourning garments, and put on her glorious apparel. (Esther 15:1)and as was usual for princes to do in times of mourning (g); but now she put it on, as both Ben Gorion (h) and the latter Targum affirm: and stood in the inner court of the king's house, over against the king's house; into which none might go but such as were called; yet Esther being queen, the keepers of the door could not forbid her, as Aben Ezra observes: and the king sat upon his royal throne, in the royal house, over against the gate of the house; so that he could see whoever came in at it, into the inner court. (f) Vid Reland. Antiqu. Heb. par. 4. c. 13. sect. 5. (g) Vid. Paschalium de Coronis, l. 10. c. 11. p. 699. (h) Hist. Heb. Jud. l. 2. c. 4.

The third day must be counted from the day of the transaction between the queen and Mordochai (Est 4:14); the first day being that on which it took place. The fasting, then, would not begin till midday; and on the third day Esther went to the king to invite him on that day to a banquet, which would surely take place in the forenoon. Thus the three days' fast would last from the afternoon of the first to the forenoon of the third day, i.e., from 40 to 45 hours. מלכוּת תּלבּשׁ, she put on royalty, royal dignity, i.e., arrayed herself in royal apparel. Bertheau thinks that the word לבוּשׁ has been inadvertently omitted before מלכוּת; but such a conjecture is without sufficient support, the passages Est 6:8 and Est 8:15 being of another kind. The expression is elliptical, and מלכוּת is easily completed by the notion לבוּשׁ furnished by the verb. Est 5:2 When the king saw Queen Esther standing in the court, she obtained favour in his eyes (see rem. on Est 2:9), and he held out to her the golden sceptre that was in his hand; and Esther drew near and touched the top of the sceptre, probably kissed it, as the Vulgate renders the word. Est 5:3-4 The king, concluding from the circumstance of her appearing there unsummoned, that she had some urgent matter to bring before him, said to her: "What wilt thou, Queen Esther? and what is thy request? To the half of the kingdom it shall be granted thee." A short expression for: if thy request relates even to the half of the kingdom, it shall be granted. Est 5:4. Esther, however, for the present requested nothing further, than that on that day (to-…
Відкрити джерело ↗Here is, I. Esther's bold approach to the king, Est 5:1. When the time appointed for their fast was finished she lost no time, but on the third day, when the impression of her devotions were fresh upon her spirit, she addressed the king. When the heart is enlarged in communion with God it will be emboldened in doing and suffering for him. Some think that the three days' fast was only one whole day and two whole nights, in all which time they did not take any food at all, and that this is called three days, as Christ's lying in the grave so long is. This exposition is favoured by the consideration that on the third day the queen made her appearance at court. Resolutions which have difficulties and dangers to break though should be pursued without delay, lest they cool and slacken. What thou doest, which must be done boldly, do it quickly. Now she put on her royal apparel, that she might the better recommend herself to the king, and laid aside her fast-day clothes. She put on her fine clothes, not to please herself, but her husband; in her prayer, as we find in the Apocrypha (Esther 14:16), she thus appeals to God: Thou knowest, Lord, I abhor the sign of my high estate which is upon my head, in the days wherein I show myself, etc. Let hose whose rank obliges them to wear rich clothes learn hence to be dead to them, and not make them their adorning. She stood in the inner court over against the king, expecting her doom, between hope and fear. II. The favourable reception which the king gave her. When he saw her she obtained favour in his sight. The apocryphal author and Josephus say that she took two maids with her, on one of whom she leaned, while the other bore up her train, - that her countenance was cheerful and very amiable, but her heart was in anguish, - that the ki…

І спита́в цар: „Хто́ на подві́р'ї?“ А Га́ман прийшов на зо́внішнє подві́р'я царсько́го дому, щоб сказати цареві пові́сити Мордехая на тій ши́бениці, яку пригото́вив для нього.
„Іди, збери всіх юдеїв, що знахо́дяться в Су́зах, і по́стіть за мене, і не їжте й не пийте три дні, ніч та день. Також я та дівча́та мої бу́демо по́стити так, і так прийду́ до царя, хоч це не буде за зако́ном. А якщо я загину, то загину“.
Переможцеві сісти Я дам на Моєму престолі зо Мною, як і Я переміг був, і з Отцем Своїм сів на престолі Його.
щоб ви в Царстві Моїм споживали й пили за столом Моїм, і щоб ви на престолах засіли судити дванадцять племе́н Ізраїлевих“.
А Мордехай вийшов з-перед царе́вого обличчя в царські́й одежі, блакитній та білій, а на ньому велика золота корона та віссо́нний і пурпу́ровий заві́й. І місто Су́зи раділо та тішилося!
Звели ж гріб стерегти аж до третього дня, щоб учні Його не прийшли, та й не вкрали Його, і не сказали наро́дові: Він із мертвих воскрес! І буде остання обмана гірша за першу“.
Оце посилаю Я вас, як овець між вовки́. Будьте ж мудрі, як змі́ї, і невинні, як голу́бки.
приве́сти царицю Вашті перед цареве обличчя в короні царські́й, щоб показати наро́дам та зверхникам її красу́, бо була вона вродли́вого ви́гляду.
„Усі царські́ раби та народ царськи́х окру́г знають, що кожен чоловік та жінка, що при́йде до царя до вну́трішнього подві́р'я непокликаний, один йому зако́н, — убити його, окрім того, кому цар простягне́ золоте бе́рло, — і буде він жити. А мене не кличуть вхо́дити до царя от уже тридцять день“.
Та на що́ ви дивитись ходили? Може на чоловіка, у м'які шати одя́гненого? Аджеж ті, хто носить м'яке́, — по палатах царськи́х.
