VERSE (15) -
Es 6:6

SEV Biblia, Chapter 1:15

¿Qué se debe de hacer según la ley con la reina Vasti, por cuanto no ha cumplido la orden del rey Asuero, enviada por mano de los eunucos?

John Gill's Bible Commentary

Ver. 15. What shall we do unto the
Queen Vashti, according to law , etc.] The king desired to know what law was provided in such a case as her’s, and what to be done according to it: because she hath not performed the commandment of the king by the chamberlains ? as this was the crime, disobedience to his commands, he would have those who had knowledge of the law consider what punishment was to be inflicted on her for it, according to former laws, usages, and customs, or as reason and justice required; and it being a festival, and they heated with wine, was no objection to a consultation on this head; for it was the manner of the Persians at festivals, and when inflamed with wine, to consult and determine about matters of the greatest moment f69 ; yea, reckoned their counsels and decrees firmer than when made when they were sober f70 ; so the ancient Germans f71 .

Matthew Henry Commentary

Verses 10-22 - Ahasuerus's
feast ended in heaviness, by his own folly. Seasons of peculiar festivity often end in vexation. Superiors should be carefu not to command what may reasonably be disobeyed. But when wine is in men's reason departs from them. He that had rule over 127 provinces had no rule over his own spirit. But whether the passion or the polic of the king was served by this decree, God's providence made way for Esther to the crown, and defeated Haman's wicked project, even befor it had entered into his heart, and he arrived at his power. Let u rejoice that the Lord reigns, and will overrule the madness or folly of mankind to promote his own glory, and the safety and happiness of his people __________________________________________________________________
