    Esther 8

    We left the plotter hanging, and are now to see what becomes of his plot. I. His plot was to raise an estate for himself; and all his estate, being confiscated for treason, is given to Esther and Mordecai, Esther 8:1, 8:2. II. His plot was to ruin the Jews; and as to that, 1. Esther earnestly intercedes for the reversing of the edict against them, Esther 8:3-8:6. 2. It is in effect done by another edict, here published, empowering the Jews to stand up in their own defence against their enemies, Esther 8:7-8:14. III. This occasions great joy to the Jews and all their friends, Esther 8:15-8:17.MHBCC 435.1
