Esther 6:10 — Meaning and Application

Let the royal apparel be brought which the king {useth} to wear, and the horse that the king rideth upon, and the crown royal which is set upon his head: {Let...: Heb. Let them bring the royal apparel} {which the king...: Heb. wherewith the king clotheth himself}

And let this apparel and horse be delivered to the hand of one of the king's most noble princes, that they may array the man {withal} whom the king delighteth to honour, and bring him on horseback through the street of the city, and proclaim before him, Thus shall it be done to the man whom the king delighteth to honour. {bring...: Heb. cause him to ride}

Then the king said to Haman, Make haste, {and} take the apparel and the horse, as thou hast said, and do even so to Mordecai the Jew, that sitteth at the king's gate: let nothing fail of all that thou hast spoken. {let...: Heb. suffer not a whit to fall}

Then took Haman the apparel and the horse, and arrayed Mordecai, and brought him on horseback through the street of the city, and proclaimed before him, Thus shall it be done unto the man whom the king delighteth to honour.

And Mordecai came again to the king's gate. But Haman hasted to his house mourning, and having his head covered.
