Congregation Meeting
Making Our Way Through the Bible at Calvin
5 King Xerxes asked Queen Esther, “Who is he? Where is he—the man who has dared to
do such a thing?” 6 Esther said, “An adversary and enemy! This vile Haman!” Then Ham-
an was terrified before the king and queen. 7 The king got up in a rage, left his wine and
went out into the palace garden. But Haman, realizing that the king had already decided
his fate, stayed behind to beg Queen Esther for his life. 8 Just as the king returned from
the palace garden to the banquet hall, Haman was falling on the couch where Esther was
reclining. The king exclaimed, “Will he even molest the queen while she is with me in the
house?” As soon as the word left the king’s mouth, they covered Haman’s face.9 Then
Harbona, one of the eunuchs attending the king, said, “A pole reaching to a height of fifty
cubits stands by Haman’s house. He had it set up for Mordecai, who spoke up to help the
king.” The king said, “Impale him on it!” 10 So they impaled Haman on the polehe had set
up for Mordecai. Then the king’s fury subsided. Esther 7: 5-10
