Esther 8:1-2

Context
The King Acts to Protect the Jews

8:1 On that same day King Ahasuerus gave the estate 1  of Haman, that adversary of the Jews, to Queen Esther. Now Mordecai had come before the king, for Esther had revealed how he was related to her. 8:2 The king then removed his signet ring (the very one he had taken back from Haman) and gave it to Mordecai. And Esther designated Mordecai to be in charge of Haman’s estate.
