Haman, the royal official who hates Mordecai for being disrespectful and insubordinate, has tricked King Ahaseurus into giving him even more power and authority. With the king’s signet ring in hand, he devises a scheme to wipe out the Jewish people, whom he hates because of his hatred for Mordecai. Proverbs 16:18 says, “Pride comes before destruction, and an arrogant spirit before a fall,” and that proverb is on full display here in the life of Haman. A God orchestrates divine justice over Persia without speaking a word, while Esther and her people are blessed in their humility before a holy and sovereign God who provides for those who fear Him.
