Contextual Overview
1 Now the king and Haman came to drink wine with Esther the queen.2 And the king said to Esther on the second day also as they drank their wine at the banquet, "What is your petition, Queen Esther? It shall be granted you. And what is your request? Even to half of the kingdom it shall be done." 3 Then Queen Esther replied, "If I have found favor in your sight, O king, and if it pleases the king, let my life be given me as my petition, and my people as my request; 4 for we have been sold, I and my people, to be destroyed, to be killed and to be annihilated. Now if we had only been sold as slaves, men and women, I would have remained silent, for the trouble would not be commensurate with the annoyance to the king." 5 Then King Ahasuerus asked Queen Esther, "Who is he, and where is he, who would presume to do thus?" 6 Esther said, "A foe and an enemy is this wicked Haman!" Then Haman became terrified 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.
