Contextual Overview
4 So the king said, "Who is outside?" Now Haman had just come into the garden outside the king's special house. He wanted to speak to the king about hanging Mordecai on the tower he had made ready for him. 5 The king's servants said to him, "See, Haman is standing in the garden." And the king said, "Let him come in." 6 So Haman came in and the king said to him, "What is to be done for the man whom the king wants to honor?" Haman thought to himself, "Whom would the king want to honor more than me?" 7 Then Haman said to the king, "For the man whom the king wants to honor, 8 let them bring clothing which the king wears, and the horse on which the king rides, and on whose head a crown has been placed. 9 Let the clothing and the horse be handed over to one of the king's most honored princes. Let them dress the man whom the king wants to honor and lead him on the horse through the center of the city. Have them make it known before him, ‘This is being done to the man whom the king wants to honor.'" 10 Then the king said to Haman, "Be quick to take the clothing and the horse as you have said. Do this for Mordecai the Jew, who is sitting at the king's gate. Do not do any less than all that you have said." 11 So Haman took the clothing and the horse. He dressed Mordecai and led him on the horse through the center of the city. And he made known before him, "This is being done to the man whom the king wants to honor."

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And the king's servants said unto him, behold, Haman standeth in the court,.... In the outward court; for into the inward court none might enter without being called, for which he was waiting:
and the king said, let him come in; into his bedchamber; and it was of God, no doubt, that Haman should be on the spot at this very time, when the king was in the humour to do honour to Mordecai, and by him.
