SEV Biblia, Chapter 3:3
Y los siervos del rey que estaban a la puerta, dijeron a Mardoqueo: ¿Por qué traspasas el mandamiento del rey?
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 3. Then the king’s servants, which were in the king’s gate , etc.] Observing the behaviour of Mordecai towards Haman from time to time: said unto Mordecai, why transgressest thou the king’s commandment ? of giving reverence to Haman, which they knew he could not be ignorant of.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 1-6 - Mordecai refused to reverence Haman. The religion of a Jew forbade his to give honours to any mortal man which savoured of idolatry especially to so wicked a man as Haman. By nature all are idolaters self is our favourite idol, we are pleased to be treated as if ever thing were at our disposal. Though religion by no means destroys goo manners, but teaches us to render honour to whom honour is due, yet be a citizen of Zion, not only in his heart, but in his eyes, such a vil person as Haman was, is contemned, Ps 15:4. The true believer cannot obey edicts, or conform to fashions, which break the law of God. He must obey God rather than man, and leave the consequences to him. Hama was full of wrath. His device was inspired by that wicked spirit, wh has been a murderer from the beginning; whose enmity to Christ and his church, governs all his children.
