Haman’s Plot against Mordecai
That day Haman went out full of joy and glad of heart. At the king’s gate, however, [he] saw Mordecai, who did not rise or tremble in fear at his presence. And Haman was filled with rage toward Mordecai.
10Nevertheless, Haman restrained himself and went home. And calling for his friends and his wife Zeresh, 11 Haman recounted to them his glorious wealth, his many sons, and all the ways the king had honored and promoted him over the other officials and servants.
12“What is more,” Haman added,“Queen Esther invited no one but me to join the king at the banquet she prepared, and I am invited back tomorrow along with the king. 13 Yet none of this satisfies me as long as I see Mordecai the Jew sitting at the king’s gate.”
14His wife Zeresh and all his friends told him,“Have them build a gallows fifty cubits high,[fn] and ask the king in the morning to have Mordecai hanged on it. Then go to the banquet with the king and enjoy yourself.”
The advice pleased Haman, and he had the gallows constructed. 6
5:14 50 cubits is approximately 75 feet or 22.9 meters high.
