Esther 6:14

Preacher's Complete Homiletical Commentary - Esther 6:12-14

And while they were yet talking with him ] But could not yield him one word of comfort. He hoped haply that they would have found out for him some good occasion, some means of supplanting Mordecai, now his co-rival and counterfactionist, and of incensing the king against him, that he might build upon his ruins.
