Contextual Overview
1 So the king and Haman came to eat with Esther the queen. 2 And the king said again to Esther on the second day, as they drank their wine at the special supper, "What do you want to ask of me, Queen Esther? It will be done for you. What do you want? You would be given as much as half the nation." 3 Queen Esther answered, "If I have found favor in your eyes, O king, and if it please the king, I ask that my life and the lives of my people be saved. 4 For I and my people have been sold, to be destroyed, to be killed, and to be done away with. If we had only been sold as men and women servants, I would have kept quiet. For our trouble is not to be compared with the trouble it will make for the king." 5 Then King Ahasuerus asked Queen Esther, "Who is he, and where is he, who would do such a thing?" 6 Esther said, "This sinful Haman hates us very much!" Then Haman was very afraid in front of 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.
