Esther 6:11

Context

6:11 So Haman took the clothing and the horse, and he clothed Mordecai. He led him about on the horse throughout the plaza of the city, calling before him, “So shall it be done to the man whom the king wishes to honor!”

Esther 6:13

Context
6:13 Haman then related to his wife Zeresh and to all his friends everything that had happened to him. These wise men, 1  along with his wife Zeresh, said to him, “If indeed this Mordecai before whom you have begun to fall is Jewish, 2  you will not prevail against him. No, you will surely fall before him!”

Esther 10:2

Context
10:2 Now all the actions carried out under his authority and his great achievements, along with an exact statement concerning the greatness of Mordecai, whom the king promoted, are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Media and Persia?

1 tc Part of the Greek tradition and the Syriac Peshitta understand this word as “friends,” probably reading the Hebrew term רֲכָמָיו (rakhamayv, “his friends”) rather than the reading of the MT חֲכָמָיו (hakhamayv, “his wise men”). Cf. NLT “all his friends”; the two readings appear to be conflated by TEV as “those wise friends of his.”

2 tn Heb “from the seed of the Jews”; KJV, ASV similar.
