MEMUCAN
One of the seven princes of Persia and Media under King Ahasuerus (Est 1:14-21). He brought charges against Vashti, the Persian queen, who had refused to make a royal appearance that the king had commanded (v 16). Memucan proposed that she be divested of her position and the queenship given to another; the king took his counsel and issued a decree to that effect (v 21). Hence Esther was chosen as queen over Media and Persia.
