Dan pakaian dan kuda itu diberikan kepada tangan barang seorang dari pada segala penghulu dan orang besar-besar duli tuanku, supaya dikenakannya kepada orang itu dan dinaikkannya di atas kuda itu dan diaraknya keliling segala lorong negeri sambil berseru-seru di hadapannya: Demikianlah dibuat akan orang yang hendak tersangat dipermuliakan oleh baginda!

Contextual Overview

4 And the king saide: Who is in the court? (for Haman was come into the court without before the kinges house, that he might speake vnto the king to hang Mardocheus on the tree that he had prepared for him.) 5 And the kinges seruauntes saide vnto him: Beholde, Haman standeth in the court. And the king saide: let him come in. 6 And when Haman came in, the king saide vnto him: what shalbe done vnto the man whom the king would faine bring vnto worship? (Haman thought in his heart: Whom desireth the king to bring vnto worship more then me?) 7 And Haman aunswered the king: Let the man whom the king pleaseth to bring vnto worship, be brought hither, 8 That he may be arayed with the royall garmentes which the king vseth to weare, and the horse that the king rydeth vpon, and that the crowne royall may be set vpon his head: 9 And let this rayment and horse be deliuered vnder the hande of one of the kinges most noble princes, that they may aray the man withal whom the king is disposed to bring to honour, and cary him vpon the horse through the streete of the citie, and proclayme before him, Thus shall it be done to the man whom the king pleaseth to bring to honour. 10 And the king saide to Haman: Make haste, and take as thou hast saide the rayment and the horse, and do euen so vnto Mardocheus the Iewe that sitteth before the kinges gate, and let nothing faile of all that thou hast spoken. 11 Then toke Haman the rayment and the horse, and arayed Mardocheus, and brought him on horsebacke through the streete of the citie, and proclaymed before him, Euen this shall it be done vnto the man whom the king is disposed to honour.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And let this apparel and horse be delivered to the hand of one of the king's most noble princes,.... The one,

that they may array the man withal whom the king delighteth to honour; and the other to be led in state before him:

and bring him on horseback through the street of the city; on another horse, that all might see what honour was done him:

and proclaim before him; as before Joseph, when advanced next to Pharaoh, Genesis 41:43 this was not to be done by an herald, but by a nobleman, to whom the apparel and horse were to be delivered, and was done by Haman, Esther 6:11,

thus shall it be done to the man whom the king delighteth to honour; these were the words said in the proclamation, signifying this was the man the king delighted to honour, and this the manner in which he would have it done.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Esther 6:9. One of the king's most noble princes — Alas, Poor Haman! Never was the fable of the dog and shadow more literally fulfilled. Thou didst gape at the shadow, and didst lose the substance.
