Gill's Notes on the Bible
And the king said, what honour and dignity hath been done to Mordecai for this?.... He judged it an action worthy of regard, and what ought to be rewarded, as it was the saving of his life; but had forgot whether any royal favour had been shown to the person for it:
then said the king's servants that ministered unto him; the lords of his bedchamber then in waiting:
there is nothing done for him; not on that account, nothing more than what he had; he had an office at court before, but was not advanced to anything higher on this account.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
It was a settled principle of the Persian government that âRoyal Benefactorsâ were to receive an adequate reward. The names of such persons were placed on a special roll, and care was taken that they should be properly recompensed, though they sometimes waited for months or years before they were rewarded.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Esther 6:3. What honour and dignity hath been done to Mordecai — It is certain he found nothing in the record; and had any thing been done, that was the most likely place to find it.
