Esther 6:10
Then the king said to Haman, Make haste, and take the apparel and the horse, as thou hast said, and do even so to Mordecai the Jew, that sitteth at the king’s gate: let nothing fail of all that thou hast spoken. Then the king said to Haman, Make haste, and take the apparel and the horse, as thou hast said, and do even so to Mordecai the Jew, that sitteth at the king’s gate: let nothing fail of all that thou hast spoken.
The king commands Haman to hurry and do to Mordecai the Jew who sits at the king's gate all that Haman himself had proposed with the apparel and the horse, letting nothing fail of all he had spoken. The episode frustrates Haman's plot to destroy the Jews and illustrates God's intervention to preserve His people from destruction under Medo-Persian rule. It also illustrates that books of remembrance existed among men, in contrast to the Lord's book of remembrance for those who fear Him and think upon His name.
The commanded honor means Haman himself must dress Mordecai in royal apparel, lead him on the king's horse through the city, and publicly proclaim his honor with nothing omitted. The command thus turns Haman's plan for his own honor into a humiliating duty that publicly honors Mordecai.
The command comes that very night after the king could not sleep and had the chronicles of the kingdom read before him, learning of Mordecai's faithfulness in saving his life. Haman, supposing the king desired to honor him, became the means of promoting Mordecai to great honor when ordered to carry it out at once. Mordecai's public honoring was part of God's providence, helping bring about the deliverance of the Jews from slaughter.
Mordecai is the loyal Jew who had saved the king's life, and providence thus turns Haman's plan against Mordecai into an occasion for Mordecai's public honor. That honoring prepares the way for Esther to plead for her life and her people. It falls within God's providential overruling to save the Jews from Haman's plot to destroy them, with God working for His people in answer to the faith of the believing ones. God never forgets His people, His love, His care and His providence remaining ever the same.
God allows Haman to build a scaffold heaven-high for Mordecai's execution and then transforms that very scaffold into a stepping-stone that lifts Mordecai to honor in the king's palace. The verse belongs to the Medo-Persian phase of the beast of Revelation 13:1-2, when the abnormal satanic church-and-state system was Medo-Persian. In that phase Satan through Haman in the reign of Ahasuerus sought by that power to destroy all the people of God, the woman through whom the Man Child should come, and God frustrates that purpose by commanding Haman himself to honor Mordecai the Jew.
The verse shows God's retributive justice against Haman, where the mills of God grind slowly yet grind exceeding small, a justice that holds in all cases if not in this world then in the world to come. It shows God's warning joined to the faith of Mordecai. It teaches that every Christian in every place has a mission for God.
