SEV Biblia, Chapter 6:13
Contó luego Amán a Zeres su mujer, y a todos sus amigos, todo lo que le había acontecido; y le dijeron sus sabios, y Zeres su mujer: Si de la simiente de los judíos es el Mardoqueo, delante de quien has comenzado a caer, no lo vencerás; antes caerás por cierto delante de él.
Clarke's Bible Commentary - Esther 6:13
Verse 13. But shalt surely fall before him.] The Septuagint adds, oti o qeov o zwn metĆ autou, for the living God is with him. But this is a sentiment that could scarcely be expected to proceed from the mouth of heathens, such as these were.
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 13. And Haman told Zeresh his wife, and all his friends, every thing that had befallen him , etc.] How he was prevented speaking to the king on this errand he went; instead of which, he had the mortification of being obliged to do the honour to Mordecai which he thought would never have been given to any but himself, and so related the whole affair as above: then said his wise men ; before called his friends; perhaps they were magicians and soothsayers he kept in his house, to advise with about the proper methods and times of advancing himself, and destroying his enemies: and Zeresh his wife unto him ; who joined with the wise men in giving her opinion, and who set up for a knowing woman, and of whom Haman thought highly: if Mordecai be of the seed of the Jews ; as it was said he was; and therefore Haman had vowed and plotted revenge on the people of the Jews for his sake: before whom thou hast begun to fall ; as he did, by being obliged to execute the king’s will in doing him so much honour: thou shall not prevail against him ; to get him hanged, or his people destroyed, though he had prepared a gallows for the one, and had got an edict for the other: but shall surely fall before him : which might be concluded from his being set above him, who would not fail of using his power and interest to crush him, who had showed himself to be such an implacable enemy to him; or they might have some knowledge of the history of the Jews, and of what wonderful things God often did for them, in defeating the designs of their enemies, and in raising them up from a low to an high estate.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 12-14 - Mordecai was not puffed up with his honours, he returned to his plac and the duty of it. Honour is well bestowed on those that do not thin themselves above their business. But Haman could not bear it. What har had it done him? But that will break a proud man's heart, which wil not break a humble man's sleep. His doom was, out of this event, rea to him by his wife and his friends. They plainly confessed that the Jews, though scattered through the nations, were special objects of Divine care. Miserable comforters are they all; they did not advis Haman to repent, but foretold his fate as unavoidable. The wisdom of God is seen, in timing the means of his church's deliverance, so as to manifest his own glory __________________________________________________________________
