Contextual Overview
1So the king and Haman went to dine with Esther the queen,2and as they drank their wine on the second day, the king asked once more, "Queen Esther, what is your petition? It will be given to you. What is your request? Even up to half the kingdom, it will be fulfilled." 3Then Queen Esther replied, "If I have found favor in your sight, O king, and if it pleases the king, grant me my life as my petition, and the lives of my people as my request. 4For my people and I have been sold out to destruction, death, and annihilation. If we had merely been sold as menservants and maidservants, I would have held my peace, because no such distress would justify burdening the king." 5Then King Xerxes spoke up and asked Queen Esther, "Who is this, and where is the one who would devise such a scheme?" 6Esther replied, "The adversary and enemy is this wicked man-Haman!" And Haman stood in terror before the king and queen.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible
CHAPTER VII
The king at the banquet urges Esther to prefer her petition,
with the positive assurance that it shall be granted, 1, 2.
She petitions for her own life, and the life of her people,
who were sold to be destroyed, 3, 4.
The king inquires the author of this project, and Haman is
accused by the queen, 5, 6.
The king is enraged: Haman supplicates for his life; but the
king orders him to be hanged on the gallows he had prepared
for Mordecai, 7-10.
