Gill's Notes on the Bible
But the other Jews that were in the king's provinces gathered themselves together,.... In a body, in their respective provinces and cities:
and stood for their lives; defended themselves against those that attacked them:
and had rest from their enemies; that selfsame day; all being destroyed by them, and none daring to appear against them:
and slew of their foes 75,000 men; that is, in all the provinces put together:
but they laid not their hands on the prey; :-.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
Seventy and five thousand - The Septuagint gives the number as 15,000; and this amount seems more in proportion to the 800 slain in Susa.
