Gill's Notes on the Bible

And the king said, who is in the court?.... Being in haste to confer some honour on Mordecai for what he had done:

now Haman was come into the outward court of the king's house; though it was early in the morning, being eager to get to the speech of the king before he was engaged in any business, to obtain a grant from him:

to hang Mordecai on the gallows that he had prepared for him; of which he made no doubt of having, and therefore had prepared for it.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Esther 6:4. Who is in the court? — This accords with the dream mentioned by the Targum; and given above.

Now Haman was come — This must have been very early in the morning. Haman's pride and revenge were both on the tenters to be gratified.
